Things are really looking up in this thread:rock: seems like everyday someone is taking delivery.....I got this email today - not sure what to make of it....Dealer and Chat still report JB status.

Congrats! I ordered a pretty similar Sport S three days after you, and have been about a week behind your different stages. Will presumably take longer to get to Maine than Michigan, but this gives me some hope.

Awesome! Mine spent 12 days at a rail site so it could have been quicker!

Still in KZ here. Per chat:

Thank you for waiting. I do see that the Jeep is in the ship phase currently, but at this time I do not see a current ETA window for when the Gladiator will be arriving at the dealer. We do ship our Jeep's out in lots, so it could be that the order is currently waiting for a full load of vehicles to all be heading to the same area before the ETA is finalized. I would suggest allowing a week to pass then contact us back for an update, but we are available 24/7 if you would like to contact back sooner.
Given the number of folks still in D or D1, however, I am not complaining.

Same here. Some dude said Jeep chat said he was still in KZ with no ETA. Then he got a phone call from dealer saying his truck just arrived lol

Hit day 45 in D status, so I was able to escalate my case this morning. Despite knowing such an escalation to be totally futile, it still felt good. That vague, totally illusory feeling of control was a nice change of pace.

This happened ish to me. Checked in with jeep chat, no eta. Found out today it already shipped. This doesn't help to assume that if your kz, you shipped. But you may get a suprise from dealer. #mtpositivity

Last night as I pulled into the drive I parked the truck and the clutch peddle went to the floor and didn't return. I had to reach down with my hand to pull it up and then tried to depress it again. It went right to the floor again and didn't return. I discovered that a part of the linkage had either became disconnected or I am guessing wasn't fully snapped into place. The linkage is a plastic part that goes through the firewall and attaches to a knob on the clutch peddle. I think its possible that it wasn't fully snapped into place but was still in place enough for the clutch to function. I was able to snap it in place easily and it made an audible click.

Everything seems to be working fine now but will definitely be keeping and eye on this part.

I'll try and get a picture later.
