Looks good! I have the same on order - in production now!picked up my 2 dr, 6 spd Willys in Reign last week. Ordered early July, so about 4.5 months from order to delivery.
That does make sense! My dealer did say something about hoping for the fact that earl seems to be a hit, so hopefully they keep the rotation going and we ordered right as the rotation was switching to earl.I chat with someone fairly high up in the Wrangler product line at Jeep on a somewhat regular basis (either directly, or through mutual friends' social media posts). I occasionally ask him questions that come up on the forums and, for questions he can or is able to answer, he provides me insight / answers. He has told me that they can only paint 11 colors at any one time...
Based on what he has told me, this is my understanding of the process with regards to paint...
Because the factory only is able to paint a certain number of colors at any one time. There are colors that they always paint (Black, White, Silver... and normally Red and some shade of blue, which in the JL's case is Hydro Blue... for most of the JL's lifecycle they've also painted Sarge Green, Sting Gray, and Granite Crystal).
For colors that they do not paint regularly (like Punk'n, Earl, Reign, High Velocity, Gobi, Hella Yella, Snazzberry, Gecko, Mojito, Ocean Blue, Chief, Bikini, etc.), they rotate them in and out.
Taking paints in and out of the production process isn't necessarily complex, but it does take additional time (and if the timing is wrong, leads to material waste). Right now, there is such a backlog of orders they need to keep the production moving to get through that backlog. There are orders out there, if you look through this thread, that have been in confirmed status from anywhere between 90 and 160+ days which were all made prior to Punk'n being re-released, and those orders are in the following colors...
Reign was called a "limited edition" color, so once all of the Reign Jeep bodies are sprayed, they will likely flip the paint guns spraying Reign over to Punk'n.
- Black
- White
- Silver
- Red
- Hydro Blue
- Sting Gray
- Sarge Green
- Granite Crystal
- High Velocity
- Earl
- Reign
Now, I'm sure some Punk'n Jeep will go into production and prove me wrong, but this is how it was explained to me by someone that would be "in the know."
As of 0600 on Wednesday Dec7th, I do not see anything on Crypto...Did you show up on crypto?
115 days since ordered Earl JLUR… dealer says D for more than a month now, tracker still says C… Also got 4NS yesterday. From NJ, ordered from dealer in Virginia.Well, I’m in eastern MA and the other person who posted is in NH. Anyone get 4NS who isn’t in New England?
I also got the codeWell, I’m in eastern MA and the other person who posted is in NH. Anyone get 4NS who isn’t in New England?
I am the Kansas City area, 131 in C status, MT, both safety groups. 4 door rubicon in Earl.And one of the other posters was Cape… so that makes 4 of us. But then the recent Florida poster maybe throws that theory out
Behind the curve with new deliveries. Wow! What a nice jeep! Congrats. BTW, I have a center stack for a 392 from another project. Glad the dealership fixed everything but would have gladly given it to you.Dealer finally called. Picked her up late Sunday. Had to put the Rudolph nose on the front for the season. Merry Christmas to me! I hope the rest of you get yours soon. (Ordered 6/10/22, drove off the lot 11/27/22). Well worth the wait and I am very happy with the color!

I have all of those options except the satin black grill. I've been at C for 179 days. Not sure the options are the entire reason as I have seen similar builds on this thread that have been delivered already that were ordered after mine. I'm leaning toward dealer allocation. When I originally placed the order, I was told 6 to 9 months for delivery.This morning the trackers show same thing: 133 days in “C.” I’ll put the items ordered, and if anyone has insight or theories on why I’m stuck here, leave a note.
