ORDER TRACKING for your Jeep Wrangler

[dmeyerrph]

Just picked it up. Saying goodbye to Ol' Blue and hello to Firecracker Red Sahara with Selec-Trac.
And then the worst luck on the way home - rock to the windshield and a big crack. I put 3 miles on it!.

Okay. This will be long. I'll drop some pics here and in the recommended dealer thread. I've been recommending Kim @ Superior in Conway on here for 3 months now. I have no affiliation and until last night had never met any of the Superior folks. It's just been to let fellow Jeepers know they can save some money and it doesn't have to be stressful or a hassle. After picking up my Rubi last night that opinion hasn't changed. I got the standard 5% below invoice most of us are getting. I sprung for the tread lightly for another 1%. $100 membership to save $550. I'm not math wiz but... Then thanks to Kim and Kit the finance guy I got the deal done @ 8:00 last night and was able to use my $500 bonus cash just barely. So 7+% off of invoice and the best doc fee in the country $130. Arkansas caps it at $130. MSRP $55K+ and out the door @ $48k+, $9K down made it $39k and a sweet interest rate = great payment. I always bring my own financing but the dealers have always beat it after I got there. You may be happy with your rate but if you are ordering from Kim give Kit a shot at beating it. He got me another .5% better than what I was getting with Penfed.

I can't say enough about how smooth it went. It got a little harry trying to get everything signed before today to get the $500 bonus cash but they went above and beyond to make that happen. I'm not kidding myself thinking they did it so I could get my $500. It was the last day of the month and they wanted to move a unit and count it towards February sales, plus Kim gets to count it as a Feb. sale. She will have 20+ units delivered in March. She's good there, lol. Last count she has ordered 35 JL's. No I'm not getting any finders fees and I didn't even get a free hat but I did get a smoking deal and I want to help out my fellow Jeepers. I'm getting off track what will already be a long post. Yesterday is Kims regular day off but it was end of the month so no day off but I know she would have went home earlier but she was waiting for me to get there late. She didn't have to. I had everything I needed and the finance guy had everything ready to sign. Kim took off and Kameron showed me my Rubi and went over some things. This is my 8th Wrangler so I'm no stranger to Wranglers and thanks to this forum I already knew every feature front and back. It was mainly BSing while they got ready for me to sign. The signing literally took 5 minutes. I spent more time talking to Kameron and checking out the showroom cars than I did doing the deal. If you are into go fast Dodges, man they have em. The have one Hell Cat and they even have a Demon. Then a bunch of other Hemi Challengers and Chargers. Like 12 of them in the showroom. Flawless, super easy and zero issues. Oh ya. I know other dealers troll our forum so if you are one of those "No way they can do that deal, when you get down there you will get a surprise" dealers and you are reading this. Yes I did get my deal as promised. They can do it and did. Here's the deal if you are new to the forum and wondering how they can do that. When they order for 5% under invoice they still get "Hold back" money from FCA. For me it was $1500. The 1% for Tread Lightly and the $500 bonus cash is no sweat to them because that comes out of FCA's pocket. So for ordering my rig and signing papers they made $1500. They didn't pay interest on it while it sat on the lot, they didn't have to carry insurance on it why it set on the lot. Little overhead from ordering me a JL. They have ordered 35 and still counting. My $1500 HB is on the high side but lets say it averages $1300. Do the math x 35+. Plus dealerships and salesmen get bonuses based on units moved in a given month. They/she will set sales records for March. I get a great deal and they make their money for not a whole lot of effort. Win/win. So now that I have confirmed that Kim and Superior are awesome and I had zero issues and was given what was promised here are my first impressions.

Good job FCA. They took our beloved Wrangler and improved on it 100% but they didn't go overboard. I was afraid when Fiat went to changing our Wrangler we might be trouble. Not the case. They struck a balance between making it better but making sure not to make it a convertible Cherokee, Land Cruiser, etc... They took the bad and made it good and the good they made great. I could give a long review but the guys that got theirs weeks ago have done that. Zero complaints so far. I have owned 8 Wranglers now and this by far the best. I know, duh! From the Infotainment/Alpine, OMG. I love the Alpine in my JK Hard Rock but man. Something is different. I'm hearing things in songs I've never heard. Acoustic guitar, drum cymbals, etc.... It separates the sound if that makes since. The best factory system I have ever had and the wife has had a BMW, Audi and now has a Mercedes with the Harmon Kardon and this blows it away. I know you are calling BS but wow. I know I know, who cares about the radio but then I could get into the great ride, the 8 speed tranny, the interior, blah blah and then I'm giving a full on 10,000 word review and I'll spare you. It's bad ass, okay! Like I said I've had 8 now. TJ, JK, two door, unlimited, Saharas, Sports, Rubi's. Had em all and man. They took a ride I loved already and improved on it so much. But it's still a Wrangler. I'm taking more pics later next to my Hard Rock. This puppy looks so much bigger. Put it next to my JK and it's like wow!! Okay. I'll stop

Congrats buddy! But where all the tacos?

Ugh. Pretty sure I’m not gonna be able to get mine and gonna have to buy out my current lease and just wait for a better opportunity. Huge bummer.

That’s awful! Maybe hit up all of the top three recommended dealers..don’t give up yet

 

[TPFilm1994]

Any word on whether or not more allocated tracking spots will be opened in the near future. I'm a little late to the game just getting my VON but I'd still like to wait in suspense like everyone else

Sorry. The tracking is stuck in JB. Good news is that it shouldn’t be there more than 30 days....

 

[BearJewJonny]

For it to work out for me I’d need like any extra $3500 to pay off
My lease overage that I was originally told would be taken care of.

Spoke to someone, not Craig, at koons and even he was like eh that’s gonna be tough.

It was a long 47 days. Picture presented without comment.

Just made the switch and got the VON 41180862.
Count down begins.

I’ve been in JS since 2/21. Is this normal?

Normal? No. Does it happen to people randomly? Yes.

I was stuck in "I" for 5 days, then went to JS for 13 days.

JS is essentially storage. Mine was stored up in Taylor, MI while I was in JS.

Mine was either waiting for a train or waiting for a part to arrive. They wouldn't really clarify why.

And, when mine moved back to Toledo it immediately went KZ and shipped the same day. Seemed like it was just waiting for a CA train.

Picked up this afternoon! Happy camper now.

Thanks guys for all the tracking info, it was awesome!

Beautiful..just beautiful!!!! Looks like my build.

Hello all! First time Jeep buyer here. I've been checking out the forums for a week or so and decided to join in on the fun. I don't know how much I can contribute, but I will try my best : )

Welcome to the group!!

What an awesome, detailed review~Thanks so much for sharing! I too ordered from Kim @superior (Second order after being screwed over by another dealership on my first order from December) and she has been amazing to work with so far and I'm so happy to hear that the end of the process is just as smooth! Congratulations on your new Jeep

I to was was screwed over by a dealership. I placed a new order with Kim and so far it has been easy and 5% below invoice is great, but my deal is better. She is having my Jeep delivered to my door.

If you don't mind me asking, what did they charge for delivery? I had considered going that route, but due to a having a vehicle to trade in, I sort of passed on the idea. I thought about just selling the current vehicle on my own, but had more concerns about out of state taxes and registration.

I have good evidence that my new Rubicon is heading down I-75 from Toledo to my dealer in Lebanon, OH at this very moment! Tomorrow should be the day I finally get to bring it home! Very excited and already have Fuel Hostage wheels and 35” BFG KO2’s ready to be installed! It’s a olllllllo thing!

The Granite Eagle has landed at my dealership overnight! Now they just need to prep it for delivery later this morning or early afternoon! Thank you Jay and JLWF Dealer Guy for all of your hard work and great service! More pictures later on the Show Off Your Delivered JL page!
