We need pics!!! And please keep the real life feedback coming, don’t forget us....
Yeah, were all waiting for the constant regen cycles, poor mileage, and you to flip on the roof when you stop from all that weight in the front. Am I missing anything? Oh yeah, a clogged DPF and cloud of soot. That should cover it.

I picked it up today and I have to say that it is worth the wait!! My previous truck was a 2012 Tundra 4x4 with the 5.7. This engine feels quicker and more powerful than my truck. The diesel sound seems fitting for the Jeep. It’s a beast. You guys stay strong and yours will show up soon.
That is good news that you like it. I'm very frustrated with the lack of communication and effort to keep their(FCA) customers happy.

Holy Toledo Batman...um, GtX. I have a Diesel WK2 GC. The regens happened a few times before the recall ‘fix’. I just did one few days ago. I held the rpm above 2000 while sitting in the driveway. It took maybe 10 minutes. I also found on a WK2 forum that FCA has an android app where you can force a regen. You have to have a obd2 dongle that is blue tooth. The FCA app is less than spectacular. It might be ok once you get past the learning curve. I didn’t need to force the burn since the GC was giving the message of an almost full DPF. No soot. Nose wheelies... cool.

Or endo depending on your birth year
True (1977). I grew up calling it an endo. But my younger brother's language rubbed off on me and I changed terminology at some point (I think when I started borrowing his sport bikes).
