Hello All,
I ordered a Sahara unlimited with a manual transmission on May 25 of this year and have been lurking these forums trying to soak up some knowledge before I take delivery as this will be my first Jeep / SUV. I have a few questions if you will indulge me:
- I have seen quite a few people talking about checking tire pressure and fuse panel fitment upon taking delivery... are these notoriously incorrect from factory? Is there anything else I should be looking for?
- When people say that they did not get a window sticker upon delivery, what is that, should it be there from factory and moreover why do I need it?
Initially I was told it would be 6 to 10 weeks to get my jeep. It took them over a month to even get the VIN, which I had to ask for. The dealership never updates me with any info voluntarily.
I ordered a 2020 model and about a month and a half in of hearing nothing, I emailed the sales guy and inquired about the status of my order. He said "he has no info or updates to share, but the thing is your wrangler will be a 2021." That's all I got. I am not even sure of the meaning of his statement "the thing is" Is he saying that as a bail out to explain that it's going to be a considerable wait?
I am not sure how it morphed into a 2021 my. Did the dealership sit on the order for an unspecified amount of time before submitting it and it didn't make the cut off for the 2020 production?
I understand that things are all messed up this year so don't get me wrong, I am not complaining, I am trying to understand the process. Thank you for your time and help.
