I put this on the other thread as well.....

Just spoke with a dealership in Washington State concerning the diesel wrangler. I was told the owners just attended a meeting in Vegas and the "scuttlebutt" is that the diesel wrangler may not happen till 2020. FCA is still having issues getting the diesel emission permission (my poor choice of words) approval. This may also delay the pick-up release too.

I for one hope this is inaccurate information and I'm still holding out for the release of the diesel. It just fits my longterm needs better.

I am new to this forum but have been lurking around. That is a bumper. I don't think I can wait until 2020 to order the diesel. I may just the pentastar and a procharger to it.

Hey, this is my first post (or reply to a post) on this Forum. I just left my dealer in North West Colorado and he called his Representative who told him that the Diesel is still a go, and will likely be available for order late December or January sometime.
I told him what I was hearing (no longer offered, pulled from lineup etc.. ) so that he would know why i am so concerned.
For now, i will wait to place my order, hoping that the Diesel is offered, I had a 2013 JKUR 10th Anniversary and liked the 3.6, but REALLY want the Diesel. My Dealer (Tony Maneotis of Victory Motors in Craig Co.) thinks it will be the same Diesel offered in the Ram 1500's and he claims they have performed very well up here in the mountains, but you can take that for what it is. Tony is a long time friend, and Owner of Victory Motors so I believe what he is telling me. Hopefully his Rep is not blowing a bunch of smoke...

My dealer here in WA also stated the same dates as I am interested in the diesel Rubicon as well.

It's a $4,500 option on the Grand Cherokee and a $4,495 + $500 (transmission) option on the Ram 1500.
