JLUR - Firecracker Red
Ordered 26 Feb...arrived at dealer today! That’s 18 days! Will be test driving and verifying all is well tomorrow and hopefully driving it home.
Ordered JLUR, 3.6 auto, all options except smokers group. Just easier to list that way.
Firecracker red, color fenders, Black hard top.

Second Jeep. Had a 2013 JKU Oscar Mike edition.

Ordered from Ourisman Jeep in Clarksville, MD. Thought about going to Koons in VA, but this dealer was closer and will be my service dealer as well. Price wasn’t enough of a difference to drive all the way to Koons. Plus they honored the ordered price when the increase hit this month. I know most dealers are, but I’ve seen some posts where they are not.

Wow, that's fast! I ordered a very similar Rubi on 3/2 and my salesman texted me today and said it is in paint, but I'm getting closer. Congrats and enjoy!!

Nice, going from an M3 to Rubi myself.

Congrats. Good to hear it was only 18 days. That might mean Jeep is finally catching up with orders. Now if they can only release the Sting Gray matching Hardtop, I might be able to get my order in.

Yeah, it’s a bit sooner than planned financially wise, but who cares now. Was expecting 15 Apr delivery.

Will post pics when I pick it up. However I will be checking the various items other users have reported having issues with. If I find any not sure if it will kill the deal...depends on what and how the dealer handles it.

Isn't it sad that I just contemplated regret in not ordering nearly every feature like the OP, ones I don't need and could spend the money elsewhere on, just thinking it might speed up my build?

Isn't it sad that you're thinking that now too?;)

Congrats! Some are very quick for no rhyme or reason. I got mine in 13 days and it would have been 11 if the dealer would have prep'd it when they received it on a Saturday.

Congrats! That's really fast, part of it is its all truck travel (no rail)

Well, I had to go out of town for a week and couldn’t take delivery for various reasons. Came so quick that I hadn’t fully decided or discussed with the wife what we planned to do with my current vehicle, a 2015 Audi A4. I want to keep both...she is saying to trade it in or sell it. It’s paid off, so it’s not an easy decision for me.

I did drive it and verified using the delivery checklist posted on this forum. I also checked on things some others have brought up as issues. So far the only thing I’ve found is the plastic cap on the rear view mirror keeps popping off. It’s a simple fix.

I’ll be picking it up on the 26th and will post pics.

I learned from owning my first Jeep that I wanted most if not all the options offered even if they are not really needed. Do I really need proximity entry, no, but it’s damn nice to have it as it’s on both my other cars and I’m accustomed to using it. My Freedom Edition was around $32k as it was a manual. This rubicon stickers for $55k, around $49k out the door not including taxes. So that’s a $17k jump in price. I would really like to see the profit margins FCA has on these.

2004 Honda Accord coupe, V6 6-speed manual; ordered 2018 JL Sport 6MT with A/C and anti-spin. D status.
Nice, going from an M3 to Rubi myself.
yeah, we know, lol

If it were me I don't think I could give up an M3 to exclusively have a Wrangler. I'd have to have both. But hey, shows your dedication!
