My dealer just emailed me to say that my Punk'n Gladiator is scheduled to deliver a week from today (8/15). We shall see if it holds. I will definitely post pics once I do receive it.

I have now officially entered D1 status Ordered 8/1, VIN and D status Tuesday, D1 This morning!

Flying through the initial stages. I'll keep my build summary to the issues portions:

Black Hardtop Only
No Bedliner
No Hardtop Headliner
Trail Cam Ordered
BT Speaker Ordered

Just curious. Why'd you order the speaker? I thought it was insanely overpriced.

Just worked with Rob, quadratec forum sponsor. He is excellent, highly recommend for all your aftermarket upgrades. I sent him my shopping list including part numbers, he replied with a quote after the forum member discount, I ordered the parts on the quadratec website, then he went in to the order and officially applied the discount to my order. Very straight forward, very easy. After ordering through Rob, he flagged my account as a forum member so that next time I order from quadratec the forum discount will be applied. Highly recommend you all reach out! [email protected]

Matching hard top is now available!!! Anyone know what the hood and body side graphics are?
Dual top and headliner not available. Everything else is including steel bumper.

Ahh the magic question. I originally didn't order it. Then I got FoMo, so I added it last minute before I submitted.

2 Reasons:

1)I wanted something that I could easily charge in the car without having to use an outlet elsewhere. Remember, it's not just the speaker, its the docking station also. Plus I could easily retrofit something else in there if down the line it Sh*t's the bed.
2) It's $300 bucks at MSRP (So less at 3% under invoice, just being lazy by not looking up exactly how much less). I'm sure there are other speakers that are cheaper, and maybe better quality, but none that dock in my jeep in a convenient spot. For the $260 or so bucks, you have to ask yourself,why not? $260 at 60 months at 3% is $4.67 a month if financing, which makes it like 2 bucks if your leasing as a rough number.

You know, that is the exactly same line of thought I used to justify a number of the options i got on my rubi. I don't know why i didn't apply it to the speaker. Well, too late now. I'll just have to "borrow" someone else's.

Might be a stretch, but reach out to you dealer. They might be able to do a late add to your build. I've heard it happen before, and at D1, you still might have time.

This is impressive the graphics are available but there is no example of what they even might look like. Lol

Mine hit D1 today as well.
My order was a bit unusual though...
Ordered 7-22
Modified 7-24 to add dual top
Modified again 7-26 to add 8.4 audio package... but my dealer accidentally only added upgraded audio.
Modified again 7-30 to add full 8.4 audio package.
So I’m not surprised it took mine a little while to hit D1.

Punk’n Rubicon
Dual top
Tonneau (forced)
Automatic
LED lights
Cold weather
Tow
Saddle Leather
Aux Switches
8.4 audio upgrade

I considered that speaker BRIEFLY. I already have an awesome Bose bluetooth speaker that is rechargeable that I plan to take with me when I'm camping out, etc.. The idea of that speaker is cool, but paying the $300 adder scared me off for something I may not use more than twice a year

That's awesome and would be impressive it you did get it then! Best of luck fellow Punk'n Head!

Just found out jeep is prioritizing "sold" orders over dealer stock orders. Means they allow for features not otherwise available and probably production line priority!
