Post your 2020 JL build status

Wait, WTF happened to your back doors? Is that some kind of custom frame shortened mod or something?

? It’s the 2 door wrangler OG - they did not even start making 4 doors until I think 2007

It just looks like mine, but, you know, smaller...

Well, I ordered on the evening of 8/7, got the VON on 8/8, then D1 on 8/13. I keep asking for expected ship date/ build date, but either I don’t have one or they won’t give it to me. The wait is painful and possibly going to get worse if I sell my current car today (trade in offer was a slap in the face) and have to ride my bike to work for a month.

I ordered on evening of 8/6, VON 8/8, D1 8/12 and have an estimated ship/build date of 8/21. So yours should be around that time frame as well assuming we ordered a similar Jeep:

2 Door Rubicon 6MT w/ Pentastar
LED, Black Hard Top, Tow/Electrical, Proximity Keyless

Your dealer can probably get you an "Estimated Ship Date", and you'll use this as your build start date estimate, but I agree with Rich, you're probably looking at hitting paint by the end of next week.

Remember to check your tire pressure at arrival. I felt like I was riding around on Fred Flintstone tires.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like we have similar builds, but mine is a 4dr with dual top. And, I’m not sure how 4drs and 2drs share the production line. I’m trying in futility to not obsess over this; nothing I do is going to make it come faster. BUT I WANT IT NOW!!!!!

For those who have already received theirs how many miles did it have on it when you picked it up? Mine had 14 which I felt was strange.

Jeep says 4-30 is the norm, as some are taken for rides as part of inspection and QC.

We have identical builds and almost identical time frames. You’re three days ahead of me

Hah, that's very cool. From that information alone I can tell you're a highly intelligent man, very important, and have excellent taste!

Don’t get too jealous guys. I’ve got a new ride to take to work on Monday.

Mine had 12 on it when I picked it up so pretty close.
