Found out that I am in G status today too. My original scheduled ship date was today so I hope they get her on the plane, train or truck today.

Sorry for the double post as i posted on another thread but this thread is where the mindshare hangs out. Super excited as it looks like things are getting close
But....Heres how I think its going to go down. There is no way these are just showing up at a dealer in a few days and you're getting a call. I hope Im wrong but this car was the most talked about SUV this year in the media and has dominated conversation. My take is the first one of these things is going to be given to the video contest winner and its going to be a full press event. After that they'll start shippjng them out. I may be wrong but for them to miss out on this "launch vehicle" rollout would be a huge marketing miss. Again, anxious and hope im wrong.

I hope he gets the unique “golden badge” I suggested goes to the winner in my contest video.

I'm having a hard time understanding what this tracker is doing? Does it poll and email updates, or can you only get updates through the dealer or Jeep?

Understanding your build status
B - Your order exists but isn't fully confirmed yet. Plant doesn't know about it yet. Systems are checking the order to ensure it's valid in terms of sales codes.
C - Your order is "subfirm". The plant can see the order at this point but it's not fully committed to building as the supplier may or may not be able to get parts to the plant to build the vehicle.
D - Firm order. Your order now has a name instead of a number:
D1 - The date is set for your truck to be built. The plant knows when it should have parts sequenced for building and it should start to be built within 48 hours of the date set.
D2 - It's going to be built. The computers are being programmed, materials are being sequenced, framing is about to occur.
E - Frame. Metal is welded together to form the body and frame. The body is inspected at the end of this step to ensure it's within tolerances.
F - Paint. The metal is coated, primed, sprayed, clearcoated, polished, inspected, and hand finished if necessary.
G - Trim. The engine is installed in the chassis, the interior is installed, the chassis is mated to the body, the bed is put on. At the end of this, your new vehicle is built.
I - Inspection. Your vehicle goes through a battery of shakedown tests and measurements are taken to ensure the vehicle looks and performs as expected.
JB / KZP- Body Vendor. The vehicle is sent off site to have a spray liner put in, steps, etc.
JS - Storage. Waiting to be shipped.
KZ - Shipment. The truck is ready to be shipped. The dealer is actually charged for the truck. As you all know, this can be a source of delay. Typically you see me put two statuses here: Awaiting Shipment and "Staged for Shipment".
KZX - Delivered to your dealer!

I have been tracking my Gladiator Rubicon order for 16 days, always NOT FOUND.
I called Jeep Cares today and was told it is assembly this AM, and should be ready to ship before end of June.
So if you have the same problem call them.
Also the ask me to call back soon to get regular updates.

As posted multiple times before the tracker does not show your Jeeps info until it is complete.
