2 DOOR JL build/order discussions master thread

I always take my back seat out.

Congrats. We really are build brothers. Ordered the same day, went D1 the same day, and picked up with 24hrs of each other.

warc1, when did you go to D1?

Yes, or maybe North Korea?

Your President said Canada is hard to deal with regarding NAFTA. Maybe my own Government is causing the delay in me getting my Jeep.

Way back in this thread, there was a discussion on what we would use as our drive home song when the day finally came that our JL's were delivered. Today, I followed through with my recommendation with "My Silver Lining" by First Aid Kit. The chorus lyric caught my attention as a Jeeper the first time I heard it:

"I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I've made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won't take the easy road."

I couldn't have been more thrilled with this tune blasting and a huge smile on my face as I pulled out from the dealership. I highly recommend it. Full song here:

Warc1 Please tell me my 5 16 d1 date is about to enter build! That would be great

I can tell you anything you want

Unfortunately, it doesn't mean anything. I've just been reporting my observations.

That lawn looks immaculate

I'm guessing the dog spends most of the time in the back yard

So, I just determined that today is Day 100 since I ordered my JL...

And still no JL...

This has been a fantastic day for many of us. So very many positive Posts and many
got their Wranglers. I enjoy this happiness for all. Let's keep it up as others are
getting close and they shouldn't feel the pain we all had a few weeks back.
We are here for all of you ask your questions we will help. I really do not
think you will go through the hell we have been through. They are moving
faster now.

A great day indeed. A few of us are still in the 100 + days waiting club and still stuck in D so hopefully we will finally see some movement.

Looks like you are close though, should have yours soon....just in time for a glorious summer!

Didn’t check for keeping it totally upright. I have it strapped down halfway, with just the back laying on the seat, using the attached straps & the rings in the floor. I’m guessing those same straps can be used to secure it fully upright as well.

Check page 50 of the owners manual "using the retention straps" section.

I’m at day 121. Sucks!! Estimated build/ship date is 6/5. We’ll see......

It hasn't moved in over a month...it's stalled.

Thank you BDJeep1 for the heads up on my jeep. Texted my sales guy and he had no idea until I told him a guy from the forum told me my Jeep was on the lot.
It is getting the winch installed and then I'll pick up tomorrow or Saturday.

This looks like what I also ordered. Looks great!
