I’m looking nationwide for a rig right now and called ~70 dealers over the past week; only a couple possible leads and nothing firm.
As an aside, it’s staggering how consistently Jeep dealers (the sales GMs, specifically) bait and switch price (online vs actual), say they will call back in a certain time and don’t, and/or don’t know their product. 70 dealers and maybe 10 had their act together. But, I digress ...
Indeed. I was doing exactly what you did, and enjoying exactly same experience. Bait and switch, lying, talking bs, making things up, bashing other dealers..They never call back or reply when they say they definitely will. I wasn't expecting much from FCA dealers so I just play alone with their BS. There is a reason why car sales don't have a good reputation....

Or, the ones that call back might be the most desperate.
call, no call - doesn’t matter. Just simply setting an expectation and not following thru, that’s my point. Poor business, IMO... but, maybe it’s me- maybe my expectation of doing what you say you’re going to do is too high. Lol

Glad to hear other people out there who have an expectation of some degree of customer service. I found the same thing when I spent the better part of 3 days calling dealers back in November to find one who wasn’t charging an ADM. With that said, my dealer said I was still in the “reverted BX” status yesterday morning but Jeep Chat this AM says that all parts are gathered for my order and my vehicle is awaiting scheduling - which sorta sounds like D status (fingers crossed).

Anyone know the exact number of 2021 392's being made?
I wonder if Jeep knows this. With so many uncertainties (chip shortage, covid's ripple effects on businesses, enviromental plans at the federal level, etc.), we'll probably know this by next year.

Seems lots of new VINs are assigned quickly lately, hope it means production capacity increases. Keep finger crossed.
