I love hearing about and seeing people take delivery of their 2 doors. I just had my first open top run today and it was AWESOME. It is therapeutic for me to feel the sun and wind
Billy did you have the whole top down or just half way. We need a picture

Thanks guys! It's fun to think about and I keep watching videos... Love your red one!
To pass the time I've started preparing the garage. We have a pretty regular household garage, and haven't redone it yet this home. Usually that's the first thing! So got some new steel shelves to open up space. And LED can lights to go up in the ceiling... 3 over my workspace and 1 over the house door. Then I've got space planned for one of the Harken pulley systems which I think I'll order in advance, so when it does get here I can pop it in the garage and get the top off right away. Wife says I'm "Nesting".

151 days. Tied a knot at the end of my rope to hang on. Arms are getting tired now though.
120 days here. Everything was going just swell then all of the sudden, something went wrong and they are rebuilding the entire thing. D status once again, along with a new VIN. Huh. Got anymore of that rope??

Sweetwater, they offered that to you for your tenaciousness, as I recall. Did something change? Are you sure they are offering this across the board? I've never called FCA, but now I may have to break that vow...
I have no idea at all why I was offered this. Will someone -- anyone please post
if you received this offer. And yes I did not let them off the hook after it was built
and ready to ship.

Am I the only one who plans on doing 5-wheel rotations on their JLs? Why have a full sized "spare" tire and not use it? Replace all 5 when the time comes for new rubber...that way, you have a fresh spare for when you really need it...instead of a 2-4 year old tire that has been baking in the sun??
20% more tread life as well. I’ve been doing the 5 tire rotation on my JK for the last nine years. I use the “rearward cross” pattern, rotate every oil change at 5000
