bypass jeep chat and have your dealer print your updated VOC. it will have your estimated ship date on it, which is your estimated build date

Thanks for the tip. Dealer is showing a current build date of 7/17.

I'm going to assume mine is the same since I ordered a similar build but a few less packages.

I would assume so too.

good question my old jeep didnt have one. Even if it did the camera would be partial blocked by the bike anyway

Sooo... working on my wish list.
Has anyone found a bike rack you like?
https://www.1up-usa.com/product-category/bike-racks/


I too was looking for a bike rack and narrowed my choices to the 1UP and ISI out of Australia. I ended up with the ISA rack strictly as its better for off road travel. Both are good racks but the ISI you do not need a hitch extension and it holds the bike up higher for departure angles. Link is below and i will try and get pictures up here tonight of how it looks on my JL. I have used it already on my JK and its ROCK SOLID. It is ~$100 more than the 1UP for comparable 2 bike hauling ($609 vs $725 shipped)

Too tired of games with Jeep and my JLR order. It is built and in I. Per chat can be in inspection 2-3 weeks then ships. Told me to ask dealer on how long shipping typically is. Dealer told me 'a few weeks' - dealer has been USELESS throughout.

So 14 weeks in, being told 4 to 6 weeks for inspection and delivery which hopefully is late August. No dates have been hit so far. D1, back to D. Taking a look to see if can locate a built vehicle similar to my order. If not buying something else.

I was told 6 to 8 weeks when I ordered Now I am being told six weeks for inspection and delivery - maybe.

@JeepCares = NOT

Don't blame you. I placed my order 1/27, it went KZ on 5/27, and is just sitting in an offsite storage lot. I'd had enough and got lucky finding one semi-locally that met most of my criteria. If not for stumbling onto it, I would be driving a new ZR2 right now.

My oh my. You will not make it. Cancel and buy something else. But you will miss
out on the best Wrangler ever built. Do what makes you happy. Most of us here did
not start to panic and feel terrible until 16 to 20 weeks and then it was longer.

Morning all. This forum is good at spending my money, just ordered the red velcro for the belts. I need time to start installing all my purchases. I think I am going to diy, bedliner my metal bumpers, any suggestions on products

I have a suggestion. Everyone is spending a lot of clams on Jeep parts; so my suggestion is invest in a GoPro. They are extremely easy to use (very user-friendly), a LOT of fun, they're water proof, you can damn near run over them and they keep going and they won't break the bank! The photos and videos everyone can easily get will be amazing. You can clip them to just about anywhere on the Jeep (even use it as a dash cam). So there you are! That's my fun little suggestion! (Oh, did I say they are a LOT of fun!!! )
I took this shot this morning as I rolled past mine.

Hey, my girl arrived at dealer! He hasn’t sent me pictures, I hope he’s not lying to me!

WoooooooHOOOOOOOOO!!!! I am so happy for you!!!

Stopped by dealership today to finalize a few things, that all went well. My sales rep says she expects to see my order come in between now and next Tuesday, so any day now!

When I pulled in the dealership I saw a truckload of new Jeeps and got excited, then noticed no Punk’n. Talk about a tease!

 

[IMBlu]

My Nalah! Plan to pick her up Saturday when my husband can give me a ride. Or I can uber sooner, I might do it! Dealer said all his colleagues are all over it; he has a “sold” sign on it because customers asking already. I don’t think she has been there an hour.
