Definitely not.

Lets hope so! There is no excuse whatsoever for this delay and FCA needs to issue some sort of statement to its customers.

Definitely not.

To you sir, I say Booooo!

Tell me how a reputable company can allow such a delay (with all the publicity of the new JL) and NOT provide communication to it's faithful and patient customer base?

Your seeing it and living it.

Today is the day! Have some fate people.....
The 4drs were the reworked 3.6 guinea pigs and that should mean our 2drs get a pretty kink free 3.6 dropped in it on the way out the door to us patient loyalists!
Calling my dealer this morning to see if I went to D1 status

Jeep Cares just "confirmed" they have not started 2 door production yet, but who knows..

I wouldn't waste my time with them.. I'm waiting to see what my dealer says in a few days.

One 2018 JL 2 Dr Rubi, Manual, Leather, Cold Weather group and Infotainment in Firecracker red with painted fenders and matching top will be available in Conway when delivered. Supposedly build has started. I bailed on Jeep and bought a car today. Couldn't wait and be strung along anymore plus all of the first year bugs. Tired of the delays, information blackout, overpricing and all the other complaints in this thread that I am in agreement with. I may come back for a 2019 model in a year or so or maybe not, but FCA totally ran me off with this launch and stretched brand loyalty beyond it's limits. That's even walking away from TL discount and Bonus Drive and the almost $5,000 off MSRP. No regrets.

So similar to my (cancelled) deal. 2-door Rubi, 6-speed, Sting Gray, matching fenders, black hardtop, leather, heated, infotainment, towing, headliner, upgrade wheels. $45,300 MSRP, $40,500 with TL (got it down 5.5% under invoice total) and New York limits doc fees to $75.

I may test drive it if it ever shows up

For the second time, I get to post that I'm in D1, at least on the POC. I'll have to wait to see if I show up on the factory tracking data as I'm currently not in D1 on the spreadsheet. The estimated ship date is listed as April 28 which I know is the target build date. Still nearly 3 weeks away, but better than nothing. Note that my order does include LED lights and that was a late addition from around 3 weeks ago to my order that was originally placed on January 8. Seems to indicate that LED lights either are now available, or shortly will be.

It sure would be great if someone who lives near Toledo could actually lay eyes on a built 2 door so we have factual information. It kinda seems like our current sources of information just tell us anything to make us go away for a week or two and not bother them.

Need someone to move past D1 to feel good about it....

As of today I have reached D1 status. This is the first time I have reached D1 since ordering Feb 10th. White Rubicon, 6 speed, LED, black hardtop, Alpine, leather, steel bumpers, prox keyless, tow, headliner, optional wheels, body colored fenders, and cold weather.

Premium soft tops are being built last right? If so maybe sometime next year I'll be out of D status hahaha
