Hmmm, did you? Me thinks not.

Got you confused with the Koons guy.

Only from the factory. I'd assume if you tried it, even if/when the parts came out, it would cost thousands and you would be pissed. Our service wouldn't install it, I can tell you that. You would have to go with someone else or aftermarket.

Im working on this currently. Got the Front door handles working, working on the tailgate latch currently.

Word is FCA will open ordering for the Sky One Touch Power Top right after the May Allocation Call. Do you know when that call is scheduled?

 

[JLWF Dealer Guy]

Probably the 3rd

@JLWF Dealer Guy , what do you make of this?

On the screenshot below, the "MSRP* $32,285" is the pre 3/1 increase price and the "NET PRICE $33,035" is the post 3/1 increase price. Before I called the dealer for an appointment to look at this jeep, the NET PRICE matched the MSRP price of $32,285. When I visited the dealer, a window sticker with the higher price was on the car, but the salesman quoted the $32,285 price. When I later tried to print the window sticker to verify the correct price, I got a PDF with the message "Sorry, a Window sticker is unavailable for this VIN".

I did not feel comfortable with that dealer and since I was already in discussions with a nearby dealer, the second dealer agreed to transfer the jeep and I bought it from him based on the $32,285 price. I asked for the original window sticker and he provided me with a newly printed window sticker with the post 3/1 price of $33,035. I have a copy of the "Certificate of Origin for a Vehicle" that indicates the jeep was transferred to original dealer on 02-28-18, the day before the price increase.

Does something seem not right about this? What could have happened to the PDF of my window sticker and how can I get it back?

Hey, I wanted to share this quote and ask if this seems legit? I believe the monthly to be high, but dealer told me MF went up from .00150 yesterday to .00165 today due to the month end. Also said residual dropped 2%.
He also sent terms on 15k per year, but the file is not as clear. Would love to hear if I am getting screwed. Couple things jumped out also on the price:
Star shield- he said it is GPS tracking from factory (?!)
Non Tax Fees-still waiting for him to get back to me on that.

I dont like the looks of that. Do you have the Build sheet with msrp?

Why aren't the taxes on there? That star shield sounds like bullshit.

I would want to k ow the money factor and residual and then i can tell you what a standard deal would look like for comparison.

MSRP was $56,640. They are honoring the affiliate deal, so selling price is now $51,948.
According to them, MF is .00165. Don’t know residual but he mentioned it dropped 2% since the new month started.
California taxes are included in monthly, they confirmed that. And yes, Starshield is a joke.
Any help would be appreciated. I am debating getting this one if I can get the right numbers as it is on the lot, otherwise I am going to order one from Jim Marsh in Vegas. Just worried about the delays in ordering.

After searching available jeeps in the area, I found another one with a similar difference between MSRP and NET price, it's window sticker showed the higher price. I found several others with the window sticker unavailable. There didn't seem to be a pattern. I'm assuming all this may be related to the delivery date close to the price increase, or order date before the increase and delivery after.

So, if you find a jeep online listed at the old price, be prepared in case the price increase comes in to play.
