My salesman would look it up on the computer in FCA's tracking system. He'd text me on any day that it changed location.
Getting updates from my dealer is like asking for a kidney. I only asked every couple of weeks. I don’t see 2 or maybe 3 status updates per month is asking too much for a $62k investment.

Be thankful that you have a sales person that is helpful. They are getting rarer.

Received an email from dealer yesterday that my LE had moved. It has been in KZS since 5/30. I asked him where it moved to. He responded today and said he just got an email from the carrier and it will be at the dealer tomorrow. Picking up on Thurs.

My pain from the “concierge” Jeep LE buying experience is finally over! Got delivery today. Jeep really screwed the pooch on the LE process. Way too much confusion on how to order, dealers clueless, etc. that said, so glad it’s here. Love it. Time to play!

She’s a beauty! Gongrats bro! Glad at least some of y’all are getting delivery! I’ll just quietly sit and envy you from here in my cold, lonely, Granite Crystal LE purgatory! ;{

Just picked up my LE from 3 days at the Ceramic Pro Shop. All I can say is WOW!

Are you happy with the ceramic coating? I’m pricing it out here in Charlotte and it’s pretty expensive. Wondering what others are paying and their experience.

I just had my vehicle ceramic coated. The front of vehicle is clear vinyl wrapped then coated on top of that. I guess long term I'll find out if it was worth having done. But my justification is/was a little extra protection can't hurt!

I pick mine up this weekend! Cancelled my 6 M/T after no clarity from Jeep despite a 5/2 order date... figured if I'm not going 6 speed Rubi might as well go LE... can't wait. I'm a long timer FJ-er and loved that truck that I thought no way a) Jeep b) trade-in... but both are happening with the Gladiator.

Stoked to convert it for Downhill MTB and MTB excursions with the fam all over the East Coast... probably more rack / tent / awning mods than anything.

I have ceramic coating on a couple of my cars and it does the business.

I visited the dealer and picked up my LE today! It is worth the wait! I am 6’5” and I find it comfortable with plenty of headroom. The steering is good and it did not want to wander at 55+ mph, relatively quiet, and smooth. It was hard to believe I was driving a Jeep. Stopping at the post office or gas station will be problematic as people like to take a close look and want to ask questions. I will post some pics tomorrow when the weather clears. For those of you still waiting, keep you chin up!
