JLWF Dealer Guy, when do you anticipate the cut-off date for ordering a 2018 JL Wrangler? It seems as though I recall sometime in July as being the last date to order some makes of vehicles in the past. Do you think the new Wrangler will fall into that approximate timeframe also?

I imagine so. That area is where most everything changes over.

When I go to the dealer this week, will he be able to enter my order for Ocean Blue now or do I have to wait and till when if so?

Thanks for your help.

As someone who's never bought a new vehicle before, much less ordered one, thanks for the question. Closely related: when do we typically know what the next year's colors are going to be, and when can orders be placed?

You'll have to wait until it's selectable in the system. March/April is the expectation.

Like now, they will have the standard colors out first most likely. Then late availability colors later in the year. Generally there is a 2-3 month span between build out for MY and new MY opening.

The question I should have been explicit about, though, is whether we'll know the 2019 colors before the end of factory orders for 2018. I may want to wait for 2019 to save up a larger down payment, but not if I can't get the color I want.

Is there a way to add heated front seats without adding the Cold Weather Group? I don't want to pay for all the other stuff.

And as far as the late available colors.....do you mean you can't even place the order until you can see it's availability on the Jeep web site? Or can we possibly order it sooner with a March/April delivery.

No, we will not know the colors. If you want white black silver, you are good. If you are looking for one of the soon to be released colors, not likely. Jeep usually switches those around yearly.

You could do the heated seats aftermarket. No, can’t order until they are released in the internal order system.

It looks like most of the D1 Jeeps were ordered in the first special allocation. Not all, I know, but most. They do take them as they come in.
