What potential big problem?
Whatever it is that they may be attempting to fix that's keeping it from progressing.

At this point I have no idea if there is a problem or they haven't gotten to it yet or there's a glitch in the tracking system, or they lost mine, or it was randomly selected for intensive QC, or it's so perfectly optioned it's being used for the new Jeep commercial, or...........

To my Billet Brother-Silver looks f***ing AWESOME in person. You won't be disappointed. Personally, I think it's the best choice as far as being a great accent to the red dash, and interior and exterior finishes.

Got an email today on my old order apologizing for having no updates, but letting me know PST’s are in production and will be built in order received.

Sooo...... at this rate I am hoping to get my new order in August. Or something.
Will be built in order received? BS lie of the week! HAHA

Totally. My 12/7/17 order is currently: "Our resources indicate your vehicle is estimated to begin production the week of June 4." I should have been very near the front of the line. Order banks opened two days earlier.

The exact wording was:
Production of these models based on the Sunrider Soft Top have been scheduled to begin as of last week with orders prioritized based on how they were placed in the factory ordering system when ordering began in December 2017.

Which yeah is BS. Another gem from the email:
When you place a new factory order for any new FCA US LLC vehicle, the typical delivery is approximately 10-12 weeks.

Which is also BS. I checked around on other brands under FCA and typical time looked to be 4-6 weeks.

I also got an email on my previous order, saying......
Dear Jason: I am writing with regards to your factory order. I am sorry that I have no updates to provide; however, I wanted to let you know that production of vehicles ordered with the Premium Sunrider Soft Top has began. We should start to see some movement within the next few weeks. With that being said, vehicles ordered in December, 2017 will take priority and be built first, followed by vehicles ordered in January - then February and so on

Words, I have none.

I am not sure what these are. Miniature footprints perhaps? Anyone else found these on their Jeep yet?

They look like flip flops to me, its funny when I picked my 2 door I was actually showing the sales man a lot of the hidden stuff as they call easter eggs that he had not heard of yet. Note, they only sell Jeeps one of two dealers in the US that only sells Jeep vehicles. It was pretty interesting.

You have a dealer in Boise and another in Las Vegas doing like 5 percent under invoice. I would email a internet sales rep at your local dealers, let them know you are ready to order and would like to go local if they can match these 5 percent deals. If one of them can, verify there are no other fees outside of doc and TTL.

I did this very thing when I ordered mine, seeing who local would match a deal in Houston. Got one reply back matching deal and went with them. Pretty simple overall.
Im doing that next time, saves a lot of time.

I was just simply told my order would hit production mid June having ordered 12/28. BS

One thing I noticed on my 2 door that I have not seen mentioned is the fact that there are rear A/C vents. I knew they added rear vents to the 4 doors but I was not expecting them in the 2 doors.
My rear seat came off the next day I got it so I never really even looked around other than the sweet rear part of the seat on the Rubicon.

I called the 877 # on Friday. Was told my baby was in Selkirk NY, about 3 hours from me and should get to dealership by end of day. It's Tuesday and STILL NO BABY! Really annoyed with this whole process, but also super sad about it.

Based off that, my March order will hit production in August and my early May order should get built when the first 2019's start hitting the lots :p
