Seen some Jeeps going down the line with bikini blue paint.

Been running more 3.0 diesels for testing. Shouldn't be long before we start building them for production.
Rumor is once we start building the 3.0s, they plan on phasing out the 2.2 diesel.

JT launch should start sometime in March.

It's gonna be an awesome color for the ladies!

You said you ordered it mid Feb?
That was super quick! Makes me really excited to order in April!!

Yup! Ordered on February 11th, so it took five weeks.

A couple years ago VW did a hybrid diesel test vehicle (Jetta wagon IIRC) that was supposedly getting 70-100mpg. I thought that might push manufacturers to explore it more....

I'm keeping my fingers crossed about the diesel JL. It's interesting that up here the diesel in the Ram 1500 was pulled from the 2019 lineup and they were having some problems with it. Hopefully that gov't order was for diesels and they work things out with that initial batch in the JT.

Yes we were surprised how quickly it arrived, we were first told it could be end of May. I tracked the VIN with the track the build forum here.
In my research as well I found out that FCA uses Cassens Transportation to move their vehicles so I could through Cassens website track the location of in and when it arrived at the dealer today.
Good luck with your Jeep and build, I hope it goes fast for you and soon you will be riding around in your brand new Jeep.

How did you find the dealer number for tracking in Cassens?

All I did was put in the name of the dealership I was dealing with. If you go to the site you should see a button that says Dealer Display;
Click on it
Then enter the name of the dealership you are dealing with.
It will then give you the dealer number and you can use that in the future to search for your vehicle, if they are delivering it.
