yes criswell in maryland is offering 7% below invoice until sept 31It looks like you have a ton of opinions, so here's mine. I went ahead and ordered (9/20) for the following reasons:
1. My '07 JKU is starting to show more issues.
2. I'm not sure about anything that will change on the '22, except the price, I feel with a fair amount of confidence it will go up.
3. They had the color I wanted, why wait?
Far as part shortages, it's a 1 or 0, the chip is either available and it works or it doesn't. It's not like they are short a Blind Spot chip so they throw in something that kinda works......so I wouldn't sweat that.
Last - with respect to discount. I ordered the '07 JKU in '06 and used these forums to get roughly 5% below invoice at the time, something like $23,500. I used these same forums to get 8% below invoice this time around, now naturally that invoice price has gone up, but the discount is still there for the high volume dealers. You just have to put in the work to go out and get the price, why pay MSRP?
Would you order a new Jeep knowing that there are shortages on computer chips, software, wiring and so on? I'm hesitant in ordering a new jeep because I don't want the jeep to be made with left over parts due to shortages.
Same with mine...dealer honored original deal with original trade valueMine went up $695 between ordering and delivery. Good dealer didnāt charge the increase
Answering the original question, if you really want a JL and don't mind paying a premium, then order and wait out the delivery delays inherent to today's product shortages. You will likely wait longer than those who ordered 6 months ago, but you will have your rig. I don't think "left over parts" is an issue - it's just getting the parts needed for build delivered to the factory.Would you order a new Jeep knowing that there are shortages on computer chips, software, wiring and so on?

Lol, what?I don't want the jeep to be made with left over parts due to shortages.
Howās that work when they gave you a price upon ordering that you sign for??Mine went up $695 between ordering and delivery. Good dealer didnāt charge the increase
It's buried in the contract. Since you have not taken delivery, it's possible to change the terms. Same way a person can cancel an order.Howās that work when they gave you a price upon ordering that you sign for??
Price was not discussed. Went directly to sales manager, ordered 392 , was given PO with MSRP & invoice, no deposit. Was charged MSRP on PO upon delivery. Since the other local dealer wanted $10K over and the best l could find within about a 3 hr drive was $5K over ( one wanted $20K ) and we had not discussed price wondering what he might try to pull but he didnāt even go for the $695 . Thatās why I say heā a good honest dealerHowās that work when they gave you a price upon ordering that you sign for??
Holy smokes, is that what we are thinking in terms of delivery now? Or are you implying that 12-18 months will be when some of the chip shortage pressures abate? I'm debating buying a Wrangler @ MSRP this weekend, off the lot, vs. ordering. I don't mind being patient, but a Bronco style wait is a mighty long time.If you can wait it out, you will likely pay less, but you won't have the Jeep you want for the price you want for another 12-18 months.
MSRP off the lot is a good deal these days!Holy smokes, is that what we are thinking in terms of delivery now?
