Yesterday was one month since Vida came home!:involve:
Hey Lydia. You had said previously that your hard top panels were chipped. Is this covered under the warranty? Just curious... BTW Vida's twin is due to show up any day now, or so I've been told! lol

and just what is this premium? on the Jeep sight i still only see an offering of a) black soft top, or b) hard top, or c) color matched hard top. i see no other soft top.
PST is not offered for the sport model

Holiday-Smaoliday! Well, my dealer says to send email does not work. I’m yet to get a response from him to my questions. He emails me with updates, of which there aren’t any.
I emailed him a week ago asking what I need to do to start dealer financing for when my Jeep arrives; no response.
I stopped calling 866/877, since there is nothing new.
So, anyone with headliner that got installed in less than 30 days lately???
Check out my timeline below. 877/866 is garbage. The status your dealer shows is far more accurate than anything they could or would tell you. Hope my timeline helps with your expectations.

G’morning Kathy! :)
I have no idea if it’s covered. I haven’t checked into it & to be honest hadn’t thought to. I figured I’d fix her up on my own (with the insight & help of my auto body tech dad with decades of experience ;)) instead of the guys at the dealer shop. I should check, though!!

On Monday I discovered my baby girl’s first boo boo.

To be honest, I don’t hate it. Lol. Adds a little something to her personality & it’s nice to have her first one out of the way already. Haha! I’ll still have it fixed for rust purposes & may also get the door hinge film I’ve seen somewhere on here. I want rails/steps suuuuper bad, but the damn after market is pretty damn slow for unicorn goodies. :no:

SO, I am going to pick up my jeep today. I will be back to post pics. Side story - I ordered the Mopar Wench, mounting kit, Mopar brush guard, and Mopar bug shield. Wanted all these installed prior to delivery. The brush guard and bug shield are on backorder. Just have to laugh. Par for the course!

Wtf is hot tagged and more importantly why is mine not?
Mine was "Hot Tagged". It tells Jeep to SHIP IT NOW !! My dealer took pics of it
just after it got off transporter. You can see the tag drivers side up high on windshield.

If you don’t opt for an upgrade to premium soft top or hard top, what would you get?
Like I said at the time the build Jeep order form did not give the option to have a “standard” top, only hardtop or premium soft top

I would think the bumper-to-bumper would cover replacement of the panels vs. having them fixed. At least the boo boo is small. This is the reason I said no more new cars after I bought my VW new. And look what I'm doing. These things are soooo expensive, especially in Canada. I'll probably have a breakdown the first door ding I get... ha ha

Jim,

The standard soft top comes with the Jeep if no optional top is selected. I was trying to point that out to you but badly it seems.

Best of luck in your search. :beer:

Well to be honest if yours was hot tagged it doesnt mean squat, since it took them a month to deliver it 60 miles?

Well.......
IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!! :champagne:
Just got off the phone with Lois on the 866 # and she told me that Stormie was built on the 18th (a day earlier than projected), has already gone through framing, paint and inspection and is now "scheduled for shipping" (KZ). :jk:
Knowing that she's built and waiting to come home, I'm not going to be able to concentrate on shit now! :turkey:
A day ahead of schedule... Precocious child! ;)
Congrats, PhotoGuy - you sound like a proud daddy! :party:

Can the top come completely off or does it have to always stay attached like that?
It will come off completely but it looks like some work. There are a variety of arms and stuff you would have to detatch. Not sure though. My personalized Jeep website only shows the video guides for the JK. Booooooo!
