Have Headliner. Dealer said I'm now in JBDL. Has anyone else ever seen that particular sub-code?

one last attempt at humor:

A sixteen year-old boy came home with a new Jeep Wrangler and his parents began to yell and scream, “Where did you get that truck???!!!” He calmly told them, “I bought it today.”

“With what money?” demanded his parents. They knew what a Jeep Wrangler cost.

“Well,” said the boy, “this one cost me just fifteen dollars.” So the parents began to yell even louder. “Who would sell a truck like that for fifteen dollars?” they said.

“It was the lady up the street,” said the boy. I don”t know her name – they just moved in. She saw me ride past on my bike and asked me if I wanted to buy a Jeep Wrangler for fifteen dollars.”

“Oh my Goodness!,” moaned the mother, “she must be a child abuser. Who knows what she will do next? John, you go right up there and see what”s going on.” So the boy”s father walked up the street to the house where the lady lived and found her out in the yard calmly planting petunias!

He introduced himself as the father of the boy to whom she had sold a new Jeep Wrangler for fifteen dollars and demanded to know why she did it.

“Well,” she said, “this morning I got a phone call from my husband. (I thought he was on a business trip, but learned from a friend he had run off to Hawaii with his mistress and really doesn”t intend to come back).
He claimed he was stranded and needed cash, and asked me to sell his new Jeep Wrangler and send him the money.
So I did.”

hooray! my 2 door sport s with PST just showed up in transit tonight to my dealer! was in kz this morning awaiting update...
Hopefully it will get there soon, that is the same JL that I have been waiting for and it even has the hardtop. Pretty cool that the soft tops are moving.

Let me/ us know when you get it and how it drives.

Per engine break-in recommendations, try not to use cruise control or constantly maintain any certain engine RPM for that first thousand miles! I know it could be tempting during a long drive home.
Yep, I took it easy on her as she kept temping me to go harder but I played nice. LOL

Congrats! Your signature says PST but looks like you have a hard top there, do you change up your order mid build?
I gave up on my order, its still on D today (yes, I still called) lol
I found this one out of state and when I called it was available so we worked out the numbers.

Trip report. Consider that I never owned a JK just a few TJs last was an 2005 Rubicon which I sold two months ago. Having said that I really love how the JLR handles on the hwy. smooth, steering wheel feels nice and firm which I really like and being a six speed going into the gears feels nice and short (for a jeep). I took my time driving 500 miles back stopping a few times just to check if everything looked good and didn't want to push it much and kept her under 70mph which she handled great. Its doesn't even feel like if I was driving a wrangler, I was really impressed with the ride/handling.
Now for the bad, hard top was bit loud which is a bit disappointing considering Ive only had soft tops in the past, didn't feel that much quieter. Once I got close to my house I stopped at a car wash at the touchless wash which is mostly sprayed. I did that so the bugs don't permanantly stick to the grill and windshield until I wash it tomorrow. Thats when I noticed that the hard top leaks on the driver"s side just by the seat belt area. I was planning on taking the hard top and doors off tomorrow but seems I may end up taking it to my local dealer so they can check it out.

That’s the leak I mentioned, and I did check if it was actually coming from the top and the door was fully closed as well as the window.

Don't mean to burst your bubble, but showing up "in transit" online just means that you've hit KZ status. @Sweetwater has been "in transit" for a month, starting from the time he updated to KZ, and has yet to leave Toledo.
