Anyone else stuck in Memphis??

[ABH2023]

Has anyone ordered a 23 that went from Ohio to Memphis and awaited or is awaiting transport from Memphis to your dealer? Anyone know what transport companies carry the Jeeps awayyyy from the Memphis rail yard?? Mine has been sitting there for three weeks!

Good Luck. I ordered a JLU in Feb from Homer Skelton in Millington. It got to the Memphis railyard at the beginning of May and sat there until the middle of June.

Oh gosh, this is the kind of detail that would have convinced me to wait to shop instead of order

One of my buddies works for the railyards in Chicago. They are currently negotiating the contract... the railyards are bringing their highest profits ever while cutting back on worker hours. Companies are taking care of their stockholders before customers.

Is there any way to know where a shipment is going? We ordered Sept 7, and our status changed to 'shipped' earlier this week (Oct 11)--going to Jim Butler Chrysler/Dodge in Linn, MO. Seems our JLU may be headed for Memphis as well given that is only about 350 miles from Linn.

Hopefully yours won't sit there that long but be prepared to wait.

Ask your salesrep. I don't know if they can even find out that info.

Ughhh
I’m about a day away from cancelling and waiting

Your Jeep is built and shipped but you're going to walk away because it isn't there yet? Hope you didn't put a deposit down on it when you ordered.

My dealer has no info except an ETA window and that has changed a couple of times.

I did not. They said they were willing to do if that was since they wouldn’t have a problem selling it if I decide I don’t want it.

Unpopular fact but the stockholders are the owners of publicly held companies and it is stockholders who invest their own capital (dollars) to create and maintain the companies. If the stockholders are stupid enough to vote in a shortsighted management team only interested in short term quarterly results, this is what you get.

Yep... and I was lucky enough to have a father that opened up and Etrade Account for me when I was in my 20s... so I buy as much stock as I can no matter how good or bad the market is at the moment... the companies run the country.

Ours has been sitting there for 2 weeks so far. It will probably be a couple more.

Last year when I ordered the 80th, it took 4.5 weeks start to finish and 3 weeks of it was sitting at the rail yard in Memphis.

I ordered at Landers in Southaven, was told last Thursday it was unloaded at the rail yard. As of yesterday, it is still at the rail yard, waiting on a truck. My estimated delivery is 10-28. Do the dealerships have any idea when a truck load of cars are showing up to the lot? Or do they just show up?
