2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

[Krondor]

I have usually bought a clear bra and did a light detail and wax every month or so to keep water beading.

This time I think I'm skipping the clear bra. I like Meguiar's, but I hear good things about the ceramic coats. The sticker shock keeps me from wanting it all that much.

I see lotza happy people. Things look to be moving much better. Will we ever
know what really was the hold up of this launch ? Jeep had plenty of time to
make this happen correctly. I also think they wasted time and money to run
and produce JK's. The 2 sitting side by side at a dealer .........really which one
would you buy ? And for these venders that are finishing the JL access.
they came unprepared. Yes we wait but Jeep is still making money as these
Vendors are under contract and I guarantee they are being fined for every
day they do not meet their contract.

Wow... the feds really raised rates...

yeah and they are expected to raise it two more times this year!

Appears I just hit D1!!
“Dear Kevin: I am writing with an update on your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Order! Our resources indicate your 2018 Jeep Wrangler order is now in the Gateline Schedule Status with a build plan timing for the week of June 25th”

I’m excited to (hopefully) start the process but feeling bad as, per cryptostickers, there are still 69 two door JL rubicon’s that have ordered before mine. That number has been dropping by about 5/day on average so hope all ahead of me will get to D1 this month as well.

I was just looking at rates and wow! Yeah they sure have gone up.

My credit falls in the excellent range and even with that will probably hit 3.6 to 4.6. Most of that has to do with financing only 8-10k, but I usually pay off after 6 months to a year so not much in terms of interest paid.

My Equifax Score was over 40 points higher than Expirian. You should be able to get a 60 month loan for 3.29 %. 36 month loan for 2.75 %.

Thats the same station it was reported as broken down at! Until I see that next "In Transit" im doing this: . Or actuall doing this:

Got an email from my Dealor, Tri-City Jeep in Eden, NC. My 2 door Black Rubi is on a Train to Winston Salem, NC! From there, I assume a 1 hour truck drive to Eden. Travis does a great job of keeping me updated. If all goes according to plan, about 9 weeks from order to delivery.

well, you have arrived AND you have arrived

ya know, rumor has it, if you hit refresh on the JG webpage 1000 times a day ( i know from experience), it actually does nothing to speed the train along..... just saying. kinda wish they only updated once a day because i'm expecting to see the next train station or state every time i hit refresh. i have unreasonable expectations at this point

Holy, crap. I got very lucky!

O for sure you got a good rate! Again mine has more to do with amount. If I went with 30 or 40 financed rate drops a good deal.

If I could do it I would finance 5k, but most places want to see at least 8 for a new car. At least from what I have seen.

 

[echris1]

Woot.

Our resources indicate your 2018 Jeep Wrangler order is now in the Gateline Schedule Status with a build plan timing for the week of June 25th.

what keeps you from financing 30k and then making a 20k payment after two months?
