Nope, I'm in the U.S. didn't know they delivered in the states.
Yep, you just get their so called "privileged pricing" when your out of the states but can get it delivered to the states when you return home

@JLWF Dealer Guy is it true that they start setting aside parts for your Jeep when you hit D1? That sounds logical but we all know that’s not how this production process has gone.

D1 is firm schedule. So, they know when your build is set to run through. Previously, it meant that your unit was being built. We have seen people sit in this status for some time though so it's really up in the air at this point. But, it should be in line to be built.

Yup I’ve been in D1 since 3/20 but I also ordered Sting-Gray with Dual Top and LED. Hopefully it’ll get produced in the next 10 days or so.

Were you given a initial ship date from your dealer? Just want to confirm what we have been seeing.

I have not. This is just what I’m hoping. Would like to see it before the end of May since I’m D1 but also curious if I’ll get put back in D once I hit the 30 day mark.

I haven't seen that. I myself have been in D1, unofficially, for over a month. It doesn't show up on the tracking we use. But, others that have dates that were initially said as the ship to date, and are coming up on that date are showing. Others are moving through the build status' and nearing completion. I'd love to pop into the actual tracking service. Might make me feel warm and fuzzy.

@JLWF Dealer Guy I was given a ship date of 14th April,would you expect with your experience of the mysterious ways of FCA that this is adhered to? or is this a "ballpark" or fluid date that may be adjusted?( I am in Canada and was told by the dealer that it might take up to a month to get wind its way through the 1011km from the factory to me in Montreal !)

MY thoughts are that it will be built that day.

I've seen 1 week and 3 months. I guess an average is 45 days?
This is what jeep.com chat just said today at 5:30pm EST on April 5:

Delores: Your vehicle has the Premium Black Sunrider Soft Top and they will not be available until Mid may

Actually, I ordered the vehicle with the dual top option, which includes the Premium Soft Top. Why on earth would they hold up an order since the soft top in a dual top option is shipped in a box in the back of the Wrangler? Why not complete a perfectly configured Wrangler JL w/hard top and send the soft top later when it is available? When I asked, they said "is there anything else I can help you with?"

Can an order be changed while in D status, but a VIN has been assigned? I want to change from a Dual top to the hard top so I can get my Wrangler before August. Otherwise, I should cancel this order and just wait and order a 2019 Wrangler JL.

It can be changed in D status, but it’s up to your dealer. I would contact your dealer ASAP to request the change.
