2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

You ordered both a 2002 and 2003 Wrangler? That's pretty cool!

And one off the lot in 2001.

We’re all here for the same reason, doing the best we can. Think happy thoughts!!!!

Happy thoughts.... like when I look out the window at my new Jeep? But then come back to reality and realize I am not looking out the window but at a jeep that was delivered to someone else and I am using it for wallpaper on my PC.

Better we all vent here rather than take it out on our dealers/salepeople that are probably pretty frustrated as well!

Yep. I haven't visited or contacted my dealer exactly for that reason. I'd be afraid of what I'd say and probably just make an ass of myself. 101 days since I ordered and STILL in D.

Well we are now at 15 in transit to my area. Of course that could mean they are sitting somewhere but seeing as a couple weeks ago none were showing it’s some form of progress.

Seeing as I have a new order this week, not expecting much news soon. I would laugh if it came super quick. Then I would be sad for others who have waited long or still waiting.

O who am I kidding? I am a horrible human being who would care not for others trials and tribulations and would be happy as hell to have it!

Well at least you are honest and I am sure not the only one feeling that way. While I am happy for those who ordered after me and have received their Jeeps, I still think "damn, that should have been mine!".

Fred, truly an injustice - giving your Jeep to somebody else.
I think you are taking it pretty well.

The only estimated build date I have is May 11th from Drillionaire. If it was built as I was told by the Jeep phone it, like Drillionaire has vanished! What really pisses me off, besides this waiting in the information dark zone is the Jeep phone people telling me twice my Jeep was built. Either a system malfunction or they are messing with us.

I had April 21st estimate from Drillionaire. I contacted my dealer this morning for an updated POC and now have Tuesday May 15th as an estimated build. As least the changes in the build date have been moving by a few days not weeks at this point.

Ya its wierd, I love the new Jeep, and I understand they are just launching 2 door, and its silly to expect one with the demand...

But damn in this age of instant gratification, I want it now!

I would feel the same way! Sure looks like things are more random for those who ordered months ago.

I picked up my Sting Gray 2 door Rubicon on 5/11/18 at the dealer. Ordered on 3/5/18. D1 on 4/15/18. Loving every minute of it!

Pictures please... pretty please!

And don’t forget family and friends (other than us friends here) should be spared as well.

I was wondering about that as I viewed some of the sold order window stickers, So you are saying they still put your name on it like in the old days?

That would be cool.

Instant gratification is stopping by the dealer and picking up the next day. Waiting 5 months for a vehicle that is not even built, while others get delivered that were ordered well after yours is just plain wrong!

The 4mpg cost us an increase of $835 in destination charge.
