Willies. Have Eric Karandy as my salesperson (even though he’s apparently not normally invehicle sales). Did cross shot midstate and Plattsburgh, just because, but of course ended up locally. Admit to my surprise to see someone so damn nearby that I may actually some day be able to wave to
Scott Constantine is my guy, since 2011. Eric is totally cool people! He took me up the hill to see firsthand how the new soft tops work. I don't have one, but he took the time anyhoo. The new tops are awesome.

Good luck on your order! And yes I do wave.

I usually get to work & do one set of reports to get them outta the way, then I go get coffee & start my day. Well today for some reason I was diving into emails before I realized I had no coffee!!! So right out loud I said, “why do I not have coffee?! Stop what you’re doing!” And then something unexpected happened. I continued out loud busting out with, “cuz I’m about to ruin, the image & the style that ya used to!” :cwl::cwl::cwl:
Does anybody get it?! Please tell me someone gets it!!!! Hahahahaha. I don’t want to post the video cuz I wanna see who knows!!!!! :handsinair::dance::cwl:
No eye deer...

Speaking of the wave, I had an interesting encounter on Sunday. I was stopped waiting on a car to make a left turn, and a CJ-7 was passing by. I popped the wave, and the CJ guy smirked at me and revved his (Heavily modified) 304 V8 at me.

I don't know if it was a smug smirk or a "Hey check this out!" smirk...

Either way kinda sad. Maybe his initials are AH.

Lets assume it was the "hey check this out" smirk. :)

Just called the JL Hotline. In short:

1) No progress has been made (still JB - 36 days and counting) :angry::swear:
2) My JL has been made "Number 1 Priority" for the upfitter :facepalm::asshat:
3) The issue is with the top - apparently, they stated that they prioritized dual top orders over others (which makes no sense to me). When I pointed out that two of my friends (Lydia and Ralph; no names used of course) had received their non-dual top orders, they couldn't explain why.
4) No idea when it will get moving again.
5) I offered to take delivery without the head liner if they could confirm that was the hold up. They cannot confirm it, other than saying that the delay has something to do with the top.
6) They promise to notify me once I move to KZ. I promised that I will keep calling them every week.

While furious, I fully realize that losing my shit will get me nowhere. What's worse, is that there does not seem to be anywhere else to turn to.

Of course mine is a JLU so probably doesn't help fer shit. I tried. Hopefully Ralph or Lydia can help.
The front seats should be the same! Vonbeck also sent me photos so I am good now. Thank you Mike and David!

Mike,

On this photo, do you have a bolt holding the rail to that mounting foot? Or, can you see if they are welded together?

Just shot a PM to @JeepCares on the off chance that they can do something.

Everyone else says they're doing everything they can. Needless to say, I have doubts.
