What color?Ordered on 5/3 received a VIN today.
I will try to track it later tonight.
White. No steel bumper.What color?
Also, did you have the steel bumper in your build?
My theory is that they do this by color. My guess is they do run 200 whites and the 200 black and ... Can anyone confirm my hair-brained theory?White. No steel bumper.
Look at any of the JL production line videos. They mix and match colors during final assembly. Of course, they could be out of parts in a certain color upstream (bodies, hard top, doors, hoods, etc.) that would keep them from making a certain color and appear to be favoring other colors with VINs.My theory is that they do this by color. My guess is they do run 200 whites and the 200 black and ... Can anyone confirm my hair-brained theory?
Its the only way i can reconcile orders after mine already getting VINs while mine is still " BG Status (Order has passed edit but unscheduled)."
That’s what I was thinking/hoping.. I ordered my black rubi on the first day of ordering 4/26My theory is that they do this by color. My guess is they do run 200 whites and the 200 black and ... Can anyone confirm my hair-brained theory?

Here's a pretty cool video of the JL's being made...My theory is that they do this by color. My guess is they do run 200 whites and the 200 black and ... Can anyone confirm my hair-brained theory?

This video was great and it kind of supports my theory I think.Here's a pretty cool video of the JL's being made...
I wonder if there's a reason some of the other orders have received VINs and some are still BG/BX.
Maybe there's an option that's in low supply?
Any of you with VINs have the 7.0" or the 8.4" screen?
Bedliner? Leather? Standard wheels/AT tires? LEDs? Dual Top ?
I know there was a rumor the steel bumper was delaying some orders.
Stand By working on one now, Probably create a separate thread to track the info, however on the data I have grabbed from some threads. Red Seems to be a hold up, Also Steel Bumpers. Still early thoughI really wish the spreadsheet kept track of the options list somehow so we could figure this out. I am almost certain it has to do with one or two of the options. Of course my order has every single options available so regardless of which one is delayed I'll be on the list. the only options I didn't get are Hard Top, Matching fenders, and engine block heater. Other than those 3 I have everything. So if the screen is in short supply, or the bumper is out of stock I'm going to be sitting on my hands for a few more weeks.

When I created the spreadsheet, it was for the initial LE orders and we were seeing who had VONs based on order time on launch day. It grew to add VINs, colors, and key status codes when those started to show. This was what helped us identify the late arrival of Granite long before Jeep ever mentioned the 7/8 build date. We keep adding columns of data based on what folks want to track.Stand By working on one now, Probably create a separate thread to track the info, however on the data I have grabbed from some threads.

Looks good, I already started the thread its tracking some options also like Steel Bumper and such. It looks like specifically with non LE orders Reds are slow to process, White Black and Silver seem to have fast processing timesWhen I created the spreadsheet, it was for the initial LE orders and we were seeing who had VONs based on order time on launch day.

I've kept it publicly editable, so if it's useful feel free to add more columns about other options (with LE orders, only option was color). Looks like there are only 11 non-LE custom orders on there now, so hard to draw conclusions from a small data set. Maybe with more data, you can draw conclusions from non-LE orders.
