Well, I didn't take any pictures at the dealership because it was cold as heck and windy. Wednesday's work day took forever to end but everything went smoothly at the dealership. I'll give props to Farrish for a great experience at pickup.

Jeep looked great and the obligatory financing hoops you go through were the only thing that slowed things down just a bit. That said, I knew going into this that I either took their financing and/or mine with a portion of the price being bumped. The finance guy really worked hard to get to match my preapproved credit union rate and worked some numbers that had me out of pocket for a 4-year maintenance plan that was a fraction of the upfront pricing. I know the dealerships get huge points with Stellantis for every warranty or maintenance plan they sell and I typically never get those as I don't keep the vehicles long enough to matter.

The interest rates dealers are coming in with are just nuts and we all know the deal that you can just refi after you walk out. They made it super easy not to have to worry about that and I was thrilled with the end state. I'm brutal as a purchaser, I don't overpay or budge on things as it's the only way I can afford my vehicle addictions :)

In any event, despite the ridiculous circus-like post-build delivery events, I would absolutely recommend the Farrish team. Jaymond Santos (sales guy, I think I got that right), Dan and Fawad for heavy-hitting delivery issues, and the finance guy (I missed his name and that dude was not feeling well but still just kept at it for over an hour). Seriously, most finance guys are like the cooler trying to ice the final quart of blood and while I know that's their job, he was good enough to keep working it down until the bleeding stopped. Not perfect, but certainly one of the best I've seen in a long time. If I were him I would have quit after the 30th "no" from me ;-)

Thursday (still cold and windy) I had a chance to get my wheels on, hood props, license plates, radio screen protector, antenna, floor mats, cargo mat, etc. 3.5" Game Changer lift is inbound and Fox performance shocks from Accutune. I was ready to put the steps on but the temps started to drop...

Going to be a blast and I'll just say my short review is all jeeps should have V8s. I know it's not practical but wow it's fun to drive.

The video is in real time, I work that fast when I'm excited to finally have a jeep again :)
Rick thanks for sharing this. Congratulations on your Jeep. Your build is very similar to mine, Hydro Blue, 392 XR, Sky One touch. Mine was just built, so seeing yours added to the excitement. Best of luck with it.

Wow, nothing similar. 4 dr sahara altitude. Everything but the smokers group. Even has SOT.
Only similarity is white.
Yeah, Mines a manual Rubicon with the Mopar Hinge gate Reinforcement. And it's a Reign.

Mine doesn’t seem to be in the “Build on 12/5” group. I’m at 128 days in “C” on the trackers.
It took us 3 hours to build this one…

As much as that sucks, you’re post is freaking hilarious! Maybe they are hiring?
I hope you get some good news soon.

Delivered earlier then expected and was delivered today. Was expecting after Christmas, before New Years… Now figure out to pay for it and pick it up. May have to float it on a loan for a quater, don’t want to carry it long at these interest rates.
This looks nothing but Frickin' Awesome!!! Cool selections. I never would have considered Reign, but this looks great!

On the tracker. What percentage of total orders do you think are registered in the tracker? I would say it's likely less than 25%...

Plus, the tracker doesn't account for stock (dealer) orders.

There's a lot of mud in the water (and disagreement) around how dealer allotments work, but one thing that seems to be agreed upon is that allotments are monthly and if a dealer puts in more orders than their allotment, some orders are carried over into the next month against that month's allotment. Considering my 392XR was ordered after (up to a month, in some cases) some other 392XRs that are optioned the exact same way (posted in this forum and in the Jeep392 forum), but mine made it to D1 first, the only explanation in that example is dealer allotment.
The allocation theory makes sense, but how do you explain that people that ordered the same model (392) from the same dealer 1-2 months after me have gotten their Jeeps already? My order has very minimal options as wel (camera, dual top group and towing package).

225 miles driven, 4 days of ownership and back to the dealer for service. The physical controls for the AC panel (temp up/down, AC, recirculating air) and a few of the other buttons are not working. Jeep did a hard flash and determined the control panel or center stack is bad. And because all units being produced will go to new vehicles, this part is backordered until..........well whenever. Make sure to hit all the buttons prior to taking delivery. Luckily I can control the functions on the touch screen, but still can't turn the radio off if I wanted too. Big bummer after waiting so long for the Jeep.
Did you check (push down) all of your fuses when you took delivery?

Without seeing the full options list on all the builds, there's no telling. Dual top group could have held things up, for example. If someone ordered the same build as you without the dual top group, and for some reason the premium soft top was not available, they might have jumped you.

Screenshot of 392 builds from Cryptostickers. November 14th vs. today. So in almost 3 weeks they made progress on 6 builds. Crazy.

That screenshot does not tell the whole story... First, there are multiple pages (see page numbers bottom right). Second, not all registered builds are represented in that screenshot (mine, for instance).

Agree…my build is missing from the screenshot and I have updates in those dates.
