New JL owners: How long from date of order to delivery

[Christinacbuchanan]

I’ve been waiting for 19 WEEKS. That’s 133 days. I order my JL 4DR 6 speed on June 5.

After 8 weeks I started to complain and neither the dealership nor FCA can help. They said they had to “scrap” the first car.

I did demand and receive a demo car to drive a week ago. You see, I traded in a car and my husband and I have been sharing his JK all summer.

So seriously now, I am looking for a few ideas from you all.

How would you play this out when the Jeep finally arrives? Should I hold out for the 2019 models?

Oh man. That's terrible. Hmmm...at this point is it even in queue to be built?

They said they are still building me a car.

Took almost 6 months for my 2 door rubicon to arrive in California!,,

I’m going on 19 weeks here in Detroit. They scrapped the first car. I ordered a 6 speed Rubicon.

Maybe because it's a 2 door?
That's a long time to wait.

I would have cancelled that order a long time ago and started fresh with a new order.

Arrived today, or late yesterday. Would be 8 weeks tomorrow.

Took delivery last Thursday, 19 weeks in total
The soft top and LED’s held it up. After driving at night I can say the LED’s are completely worth the wait- brightest lights I’ve ever had, might not even need my light bar now!

Ordered my 2019 JLUR (with restrictions on V6 and Steel Bumpers) Friday (10/12) and can't wait! Emailed dealer this morning to see if they picked up the order and he said they did, I'm in D status.

Now we wait, hopefully not forever.

Placed the depsit on a '19 JLU Rubicon in Sting-Gray yesterday.

I ordered a 2019 JLUR red, cold weather, tow hitch, 3.6, 6 speed, hardtop,
Proximity entry, floor mats on 10/17/2018. Got a D1 status 10/26/2018 with a ship date of 11/21/2018. Dealer said it should take three weeks after ship date to receive Jeep in Queen Creek, AZ. I know these dates are ballpark but just wanted to share. My wife is not happy that I wanted to order it, It is for her. Jeep #3 in the family.

New here, been following for a bit now. Ordering 2019 JLU Rubicon Mojito. I can't believe some of these waits for orders 10-12-18wks. Makes me a little worried I wont even have it by Feb...

My ‘19 was build this morning and is now in stage JS - shipped to storage. How long does it usually sit in storage? Has anyone in Florida ordered one - how long did delivery take?
