Early Model Year Change - Not Complaining Just Curious

[Riverjeep]

Not complaining, just the opposite in fact. But, I am curious if anyone else thinks the model year change to 2024 is a little early.

My story is I ordered and bought one of the first JL's sold in January 2018 and it was a 2018 model year. The funny thing is Jeep changed the JK to a 2018 model also and produced to the end of 2017 making the 2018 model year have both JK's and JL's.

Now folks are taking delivery of the 24's as of June, like I said I love it as I have one ordered! I guess my question is this normal to change this early?

They're just catching back up to the way things used to be before Covid.

Not unheard of for a cycle refresh or an all new update. I bought a 2008 F250 in May of 2007. Ordered it in April. I also bought a new 2021 F150 in March of 2020, it was ordered in Jan of 2020.

By US Law, the next model year of vehicle can be sold after Jan 30 of the current year. Kinda silly, but that's how it is.

Yeah, like I said I like it, I am hopefully getting my '24 before the year is even up!

Interesting, thanks.
