Well that sucks, I am not ready to buy. Saving 1k ever 2 weeks at the moment and only have about 32k saved up. Might not be buying anything after all at this rate. I am not spending in the 50k range on a vehicle I am not happy with and this is likely to be my last jeep. I drive a 2008 Unlimited Detonator Yellow that I bought brand new and at 52 I expect to be driving this when I retire in about 15 years or so. Getting a boring brown, grey, is way off the table.

The ONLY exception might be if I could find someone to do the decals for a golden eagle trans am look a like and get some rims to match. I MIGHT be willing to go that way, maybe. But I really want to go orange.
I wish more people had that sentiment on vehicle colors. Then we would have more options than black, white, 6 different shades of gray and 1-2 cool colors.

My Ram Powerwagon is hydro blue and the new Gladiator Mojave for the wife will be Punkn orange.

Just went D1 after 15 days. It took two months to go D1 on our JLU.
Mine went D1 only 11 days after I ordered. Our Ram truck took months to hit D1.

I'm curious if you've reached out to your dealer, or jeep chat to see what date they scheduled?

Have any new punkin gladiators been delivered yet?
I want a punkin Rubicon soft top at.
I am struggling with the decision to sell my mojito Rubicon Unlimited and my gray nissan frontier pro 4x and just have one vehicle. Less maintenance and less taxes. If they offered mojito in the gladiator it would be a no brainer.

Were you set to D1 on the 28th? If so, that is the same day I got set to D1. I also have a 6-speed manual. Looks like they already have the manual clutch fix ready? GL and I hope you get your JT soon.

A few dealerships in my area show them coming soon. So it seems like they haven’t been built yet. I know mine is still sitting at D and I ordered a bit over a week ago.

Order placed on the 13th, D1 on the 28th. Only an assumption, but I figured that that were waiting to batch the MT trucks on the release of "The Fix". I'm just hoping that it is a real clutch. Noticed that the ACT site shows all JL / JT kits are out of stock. hmmm...

Mine has been scheduled to build on 9/24/23. Ordered August 9th, but it is a manual transmission. Now the UAW strike will push it back further.

At least you got the order in before the strike. I think I waited too long to get Punkin. I may have to go with a sarge or firecracker red. I want the soft top and duel doors.

I’m fully anticipating my order being canceled honestly. If the strike lasts much longer why would jeep continue making ‘23s when they have so many on dealer lots and ‘24s slated to begin production soon. So while I feel lucky to have gotten my order in, I also feel disappointed that I probably won’t get the one that I ordered.

Also, You couldn't have ordered dual doors with Punk'n anyway. I tried ;)

[/QUOTEI Funny, I have Sarge currently, and ordered another in Punk'n. However Firecracker Red would have been my order if Punk'n wasn't available. That red is gorgeous.
