2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

[EarlyJK]

I will once I start seeing PST orders moving into D1. The communication from FCA has been pretty consistent in saying Mid May for PST builds, but.... Yeah we will see.

I don’t bother the dealer or call the no help line so I haven’t been torturing myself, I only check this thread every now and then. Once a week I check the Jeep build site to see if any 2 drs are in transit to RI. This has been a mess rollout but I refuse to let it stress me out. The dealer will get my wrath when it comes time to pick her up and I haggle a better price for my inconvenience

May I ask the source of this 19th date? I believe the date repeatedly shared was the 14th.

Do not rely on the status of the build to determine when your jeep will arrive. I don't care how quickly it moves through the build process. None of that matters because even after it is built it could sit there a while. My build was finished 9 days ago and it still has not left. The jeep website has shown my jeep in transit all 9 of these days even though they know it has not left. This is just another example of their poor tracking, logistics and organization. Worst part is the $1500 destination charge that everyone has to pay. I could have flown there and drove it back for less than $1500 or hired someone to haul it here for less than $1500. Hell, I could have walked there and drove it back by now. $1500 is ridiculous, you would think that would provide more than enough funds to invest in fast, efficient and organized transportation.

Sorry, that was a typo. My FCA contact has said May 14th. But like I said above, none of this really matters when there is a possibility of it sitting at the plant for an undetermined amount of days waiting for shipping arrangements.

The following is from an email from my dealer. The quote is about my Jeep order and is from the Jeep Allocation Supervisor:

"This has the PREMIUM BLACK SUNRIDER SOFT TOP (STB) – job1 = 5/14/2018."

^ What kind of wench is that?

This is odd. There have to be PSTs in D1 now if production is starting Monday. Using the April 9 2dr launch as precedent, D1 status began being reported here 2 weeks out. Drillionaire stated that the plant gateline schedule is based on a 3 week forecast.

I do know from first hand experience that you can’t rely on any of the tracking sites for D1 status (not their fault). I pressed my dealer for PDF POC updates every few days as the 9th approached. I wanted the POC printouts because there’s at least a couple of sources dealers can use for updates. POCs are the only source that I have found to have any degree of reliability. PST customers might want to consider pressing for that.

No but it makes her ass look fat.

Totally politically incorrect, but I couldn’t resist.

EVERYTHING lately seems to be politically incorrect as it is inevitable that someone somewhere will be offended by any comment

Hot off my email from my case manager.
