So I received my new Rubicon today!

Had this ordered with MSRP pricing then when it came in the dealer accepted Tread Lightly so ended up saving money. I had a question that I know is nitpicking, but I wondered if the dealer was telling me the truth. So this was ordered for me, and it had 24 miles on it when I arrived. The reason given was that it was due to their inspection. I let it go, but couldn't help to think that they let someone test drive it a few times when they shouldn't have. Is 24 miles normal?

Next, the fender had minor damage:

They are working to replace it (when one comes in), but they told me this was from the chains used when it was on the truck. Again, I found this odd.

Lastly, there were scuff marks on the headliner (may be unavoidable), and some streaking on the side of the passenger leather seat. I've been able to get most of that off, but it's not perfect.

So at the end of the day, I know this is all minor, but I just wondered if people thought the dealer was really being honest with me. I found out the vehicle came in the evening before I arrived but my salesperson was off. I picked it up the next day.

Looking forward to my time with the new Rubicon!
When I got mine (ordered and new `22) it had 24 miles on it. I asked the dealer about it. They said it was likely from it being moved around in the rail yard (where it sat for nearly 2 months).

I also added the black front grille which I like. Yours looks awesome as well!
I picked up my Red Sahara 5 days ago and I ordered a Satin Black grille for it. Yours looks really sharp with it.

Dealer fixed the fender today, hopefully it turned out well. I'm going to go pick it up shortly.
