I got lucky with a 39 day build time. Von 4/5 > Window Sticker 5/14. However stuck in shipping with no ETA provided

I see you're in Massachusetts... I'm in RI but ordered from Central in Raynham. Just finished a quick build myself, I guess we'll be on the same train out of there!

These numbers still seem low. Are there a large number that have been ordered but no build sheets yet? Or do you even have visibility into that? Thanks again!

There a lots of sequence numbers without build sheets (about 60k). I wouldn't expect that a massive number of those would match that specific combo, but I guess it's possible.

Hearing that I am 1 of 60,000 is a reality check!

Ratbert can you shed some light on this?
I've been checking the crypto site for months. This screenshot was taken today of 2022 RHDs has only had seven built. Otherwise it hasn't changed for several months. Still wondering if mine will get built as they say. Ten days now in D1 status with no change.
Information you've provided previously indicated a much larger quantity of RHDs being built.

Keep in mind that Crypto is tracking a miniscule subset of orders. It's currently showing 11 2022 RHDs with build sheets while I've found 3,332.

It's simply using a different starting point. An advantage of that technique is that it has some details before a build sheet exists. Mine has no clue what those basic details are until it gets a build sheet hit on one of the 31 possible VIN combinations associated with each sequence number.

Note that the majority of people that use Crypto are most likely from the US while 96.5% of RHD Wranglers are international. The odds of a RHD being entered there are pretty small.

I just discovered that the program hasn't been persisting its results to the database since Thursday morning. It's running now, but there will be a massive spike erroneously attributed to today.

Hows the Gobi ramp up since last week, they speeding up at all?

Based on what I see on Crypto, looks like lots of XRs getting build sheets the last few days. May be more about the source data, and a large number of XR builders tracking their orders.
Is this real or just my imagination?

 

[somerset20]

Crypto contains subset of the orders. It should be good enough to reflect the trend.

With the new jeep order tracking system showing data points for order confirmation, scheduled, in production, built, shipped, and delivered status, any way your current system could be modified to scrub that information?

Absolutely. All I'd need would be all customer last names and their associated VONs.

In other words: unfortunately not. That'd be a great source of information though.

It'd be awesome if someone found a way to get those details without requiring a last name.

 

[bjm00se]

for some reason I thought the VON appeared on the build sheet?

The last 4 of the VON is on the window sticker, but you'd need the full VON (probably derivable like I do for sequence numbers) AND the buyer's last name.

Confirmed. I just cleared my web cache and tried to enter mine using only the last four digits of the VON. No dice.

Edit to add: When I was IM'ing JeepChat I was only giving them the last 4 digits whenever it was asked. Never a hiccup then.

The more challenging part is last name. I could scan through all possible VONs like I do with VINs, but those would have to be matched up with last names.
