I'm not sure how it's supposed to work but our salesman did it for us yesterday during the "delivery".
Unfortunately Canada doesn’t get the 2 year Jeep Wave program.

2012 Sahara sold: 2dr Rub ordered 1/17 traded: 2019 2 door picked up 12/27
Ordered on 1/6. The last 154 days (22 weeks today) have been really challenging to keep in perspective. My built has been sitting in a VDC lot since 31 May, waiting on a truck. When I hear and see same type builds being bought off Dealer lots it really brings home just how FCA has really screwed this whole thing up. Comments such as "built priority or shipping priority" on sold orders is just a big smoke screen to pacify the restless. Here is a picture of my build sitting in the VDC lot taken by a fellow member. Kind of looks really sad with no other Jeeps around it. I will probably have to enroll it in rehab in order to get it to socialize with fellow jeeps again. .

Similar story. Mine has been unloaded from rail car in Nashville for a week now. Doesn’t FCA employ logistics engineers?? And no one can even provide an estimate much less when to expect the next move.

I’ve never been one to think that screw ups happen in a vacuum. And this has been one big screw up after another. I only hope that they’ve produced a worthy product, but based on this experience I would be crazy to place too much hope on that. I fear this could be a tip of the iceberg situation.

Got my Jeep Survey 16 days after I picked up at dealer. Filled in all the
questions honestly. My comments also honest as such a BAD launch
for the 2dr JL. Too long waiting period and etc. Tell them the honest
truth to this terrible system they have. Maybe and just maybe if they
do read these they will correct their screw ups.

waiting on my JLR order updates
You're giving me hope, Clif! I'm starting to watch review videos again just to see some JLs in motion. Itching for a road trip! And as always, thanks for being such a positive force for me...it really helps
What type of a road trip are you considering? It just popped into my head to head up of north of Banks, Idaho. Theres a whitewater kayaking event going on next weekend. After I'd just cruise on south to the Grand Canyon and whatever else is on the way then back east. Still debating but I have half my gear packed up. lol

I've always wanted to get some photos from McAfee Knob on the Appalachian trail so was thinking of heading up there this October when the leaves are changing. Only a 4 mile hike to the knob and good primitive camping less than a mile hike away from the knob.

no, those were a free upgrade when i ordered the upgraded rims back in january. are they a stand alone option now?
They were listed as an option when I ordered in January. Maybe thats changed. The Goodyear AT tires were included with Anti Spin.
