Just talked to my local dealer. She said regular orders can be submitted tomorrow as well. Anyone else hear this?

If I had to guess, those that received the invite to "early order" will be emailed a unique code next. This will allow any dealer they chose to order "24 hours in advance of public orders" with the said code. All other orders will happen 24 hours later. That is my guess. ;-) The email I received clearly stated that those who signed up to receive information will be able to order for 24 hours before the general public. I don't see how else they would do it other than a unique code.

Some of the reviews I've watched / read made it sound like the order banks open on the 4th, but one can only select the "special edition" on the 4th, no other day. maybe I'm reading into it wrong?

The 24 hour advanced ordering is only for the Launch Edition 60k+ Rubicon.

I believe the order banks will also only open on the 4th for the special addition Launch Runicon.

I think you are correct troybilt...I went back and looked at my email. It allows those that signed up to pre-order the launch edition, no mention of other models. It also says that after those first 24 hours, then everyone can pre-order the launch edition during the second 24 hours. Then that window ends on april 4th. So in effect, early launch edition orders for one day followed by general launch edition orders for one day.

Perhaps one could decode that all other orders would open on April 5th?

I have contacted 6 local (within 50 miles) dealers today. I got the answers: we have know idea, give me your number and we will call you, and the end of April / first of May.

The dealers I have heard back from found out about the Launch Edition order in a business district call today, but nothing else. One stated "From what we hear, to order a specific unit will be sometime in June for an August delivery. I hope this info helps." I don't believe a word this guy says though because he is the same one that said Gladiators would start in the $50k-$60k range ... I put him at the bottom of my matrix after that first interaction.

I heard in one of the media videos (so someone reliable) ... they stated customer orders would have priority over dealer allotment. I have more confidence in that statement and am optimistic for an April 5 order date for regular orders ... April 19th at the worst if Jeep wants to pay more homage to Toledo. If dealers are just finding out today about the 4/4 Launch Edition orders, I would be shocked if they have much advance notice timing of regular orders.

i also called a couple of dealers today and it is hard to believe how clueless their employees are.

I went to a dealership and the kid pulls up the Jeep.com website, points and says here’s all we have. I said, I guess I know more than you about the gladiators, he said I think
So. Pathetic.

I am just going to put this out there based on nothing. I think regular orders will start 4/9! There I am on record with my prediction.

Homerun, it's funny you say that, my dealer said regular orders begin 4/9.

She also said that some dealers were going to charge more than MSRP for orders from the factory, which is precisely the kind of hilarious fear mongering I enjoy.
