I didn’t realize our JKU was going to sell the 1st day I listed it, so currently Jeep-less, well Wrangler-less at least. Still have our ‘20 GC.
Getting on a rail car in Toledo is only half the battle. There are 4 major RR that cover the country (I work for one of them). Once they leave Toledo they will get split up somewhere and then blocked on another train until it’s next destination and so forth until it gets delivered by a local to a facility where the rail car gets unloaded and then gets loaded on a truck and taken on to the dealer. The train it leaves Toledo on is not the train that delivers it to the unloading/trucking facility. Could be 3, 4, or 5 trains that it rides on.
Why 2 weeks for XR, they should have the parts their ready for you. The only thing on the XR extra that would need to be pulled aside is maybe the rear carrier. The fender lips and taillights would go on as units on the line. I can’t see them putting stuff together on the line and then having to pull it apart again in JB. The diff and lift, wheels would all go on on the line …
Because I put a post up yesterday asking people how long they were in JB for the XR package and from the responses I got that was the time frame.
I doubt the lift and wheels go on in the line, but I could be wrong. I expect they go on at the vendor. I’ve had multiple TRD Pro 4Runners and they build them as normal, ship them to port and the port puts the lift, wheel, tires, and badges on there.
Well, VIN 11679 Order date of 11/3/21 and the last update I received as a projected build date of 3/7/22. The reasoning given was chips and parts. Somewhat frustrating
What was your build?
I wish… Emily from jeep chat was extremely rude and ended my chat before I was finished asking questions. Hopefully soon. Glad you got yours!
Simple Sahara unlimited with Granite Crystal matching hardtop, led pkg, tow pkg, chrome running boards/nerf bars and a couple of minor things other than that
That seems odd. Who is giving u that date? Where do u live?
You should have a VON, and probably a VIN, by now. I'd call dealership and ask WTF...
Based on the advice of @KAB96F and @JSFoster75, I contacted my broker and was sent the VON and VIN number of my Rubicon 4xe build.
Vegas, I have been chatting with Jeep.com and getting nowhere. I had my salesperson check and that is what she came up with
Something just seems off. That’s a prettty basic build and just seems way too long. I ordered and XR Rubi on 12/2 and it is built already. I’d be asking questions. Did they actually order it when you went in?
