Do you mind me asking how much the transport cost was?

I haven't shipped yet of course and it could change but I was quoted around $800 from Philly to Atlanta

It's fine. I just don't want to leave it unprotected for the life of the vehicle, it would get trashed. I worried myself sick about little things like this in previous vehicles. Part of the reason I like the Jeep is I know it's going to show use, and that gives me the freedom to not feel sick over things like this. It sucks, and I wish it hadn't happened, but "It's a Jeep". Soon it will have it's first scratches, and I'll have the freedom to treat it like the trail rig that it is.

Still wish I had just ordered those thin skins a week ago... Learn from my mistake.

I am looking at them right now!!! Thanks for the heads up!!!

I’m going to have Philly to NC so that’s not bad. Is that an open or enclosed trailer. Thought about flying up but keeping with break in it would be a long slow drive.

I’m so happy I ordered red, yours looks great!. Thanks for the pics.

Me too!!!!

open.
they said they can be flexible with pick up day since I told them that delivery dates are not certain.

After being released to shipping for two weeks I finally received an ETA...and I will be on vacation. Oh well, not much I can do but be happy to finally get an ETA.

Who did you end up going with for shipping?

I haven't decided yet. It seems all auto transports have bad reviews online.

I'm leaning towards two:

Ready Logistics: Owned by Manheim Auto Auction. So a large reputable company.

Montway Auto Transport: they are located one town over from me. Easier to deal with if there is an issue.

Did you order from Chapman in PA? I have a 392XR order with them.

Yes I did. So far they have been super nice and straight forward. Just waiting for the paper work to be emailed and mailed to me.

Yes my days are numbered. Putting the soft top on Saturday and will keep it on as long as I can up here….

The JL soft tops are just as warm, if not warmer, than the hard tops. I live in Northern IL and survived a whole winter with the soft top on. Not like the old TJ soft tops that blew up like a balloon going down the road lol.

Will be flying from Raleigh to Philly to pick mine up whenever that day finally comes done the drive a few dozen times and it's slow regardless of break in period you won't be losing any time.

I’ll second this. I’ve had my soft top into negative temperatures, in shorts. The heater wasn’t struggling, it wasn’t even all the way up. The back window is a real pain to open when it gets really cold though. The top shrinks ever so slightly and makes everything really tight

Happy to hear this. I've heard the same from a few people. My TJ had dual tops, but ordered this one with just the soft top. $2500 for dual tops wasn't worth it to just stick my hard top on the ceiling for 8 months of the year.

What color did you order? Don't see you on the tracker.

I sat there for a week but it shipped right after that

Hoping that's the case. Does anyone know about how long shipping takes to Los Angeles?
