I am right there with you, KY_Soldier! My Rubicon was built in one day and has appeared to sit and wait for two weeks in JB status to have a few additional equipment items added. The flow of production does not appear to be balanced and JB is one of a number of bottlenecks in their system. It has been interesting to watch this whole thing, but frustrating as well. Regardless, I am very excited and look forward to getting my new olllllllo very soon!
Some people have noted they think it’s the dual tops option. Maybe tow hitch?

I was thinking maybe it's some random QC checks that they didn't update right. Yeah it might seem that its too many people in the forum there but it's only a slight % of the thousands they've built.

Living in Toledo and knowing numerous people that work at the Jeep plant. I have been told that they are about a week behind and there are a lot of vehicles being held up because they havent fully passed inspection.

I'm one of those vehicles waiting to pass final inspection (19 days in "I")!

Mine has been in inspection for over 2 weeks now. Not getting the confidence up after being built in 3 days. :whew:

I am in Syracuse NY looks like I’m beating you by a tiny bit. Lol.
Mine is somewhere in MA but I am just not sure where!! Ha. From what I can tell there are 5 freight yards in MA all of which are within an hour. I’m not sure if it was more torturous knowing it was some place in transit or sitting somewhere so close. Lol. Good luck.

I think my Jeep is too. I don't think I'm going to make my 20-24th ETA to Houston.
I looked at the history on some past orders and most spend 2-3 days in Gibson, IN, must be a big railroad switch point. Looks like from Gibson it heads to Blue Island, IL, then Fort Madison, IA, then Arkansas City, KS, and then Alliance Airport (Ft Worth) which is where mine will get off and yours will head on to Houston. Gibson to Alliance was only 4 days once they get that train moving. My ETA is still showing 21-25th.

Just chatted w/ Jeep. My JLUR was in Gibson with yours & @TTEChris. Jeep chat confirmed they left yesterday and as of 1PM they were in Blue Island, which is the next checkpoint you've listed above. He also indicated they get updated location info once a day and the reason they stopped giving out location info is because they had people go find the trains/trucks to get their new cars (what kind of crazy person would do that?).

Most of the agents won't tell you anything about location. I've had one, who I've chatted with more than once, who will share if you tell him what you know (ie, "I know my Jeep was in Gibson, can you tell me when it left?"). Guess I'll check back later today.

Good to know, I will updated you and @TTEChris in a PM if I see anything change, please feel free to do the same.
