Mine was just off-loaded at the dealer. Said one had some transport damage, but wasn't mine. After 6 months, sh*t's finally getting real!

Rudis is home!!!!. Not great pics, but you get the idea . 25 miles from the dealership to home. No problems, however can anyone else feel speaker vibration in the steering wheel?
For @NoiseBoy303 talked to Ms. Boom, I think she is just as pissed/disappointed that yours is in limbo as you should be.

I pick mine up this Saturday, counting down the hours. Wish I had the funds to get a GCM LE, but I was able to source out some local LE rims/tires on the cheap, and it'll look very close when I'm done with mods.

Order sheet keeps growing -
CMM side mirrors - :handsinair:
Tube doors -:handsinair:
Stubby antenna - :handsinair:
Spiderweb shade - :handsinair:
Side steps - still deciding on type

This is an expensive hobby! Man, I love it.
Yeah, I was also shuttering at the costs when looking at how much I've spent. I've been collecting slowly over the last few months (only thing I could do while we waited for these to come in), then ordered the rest this week.

Which tube doors did you go with? Looked at a bunch of them and was really torn. I've ordered the Smittybilt ones that are supposed to release mid-October.

I think I have most of my parts I plan to add sitting in a pile or else on order. Only things I'm still on the fence on is a higher rack than the Mopar cross bars (i.e. Yakima OverHaul) and bed extender. Will see how it works with I got before I decide (or wait for sales). Or until I find more cool stuff I can't live without.

Let me know what side steps you are going with because my wife is demanding them and those $2200 rock rail fold aways are not in my budget.

So here’s the text I sent my dealer this morning...
“Mornin’ compadre...
so I take it, no news, on DealerConnect ‘VIN Tracker’!
Guess your ‘make-ready’ team will have some Railyard dust (along with the Warehouse dust) to clean off before I drive my new ranch hand home! I hope, when they do get around to loading it onto a railcar, they go easy on the railyard hobos living in the bed, under my tonneau cover... (can’t fault those poor fellas for assuming it was an abandoned truck!);{

If you look at the photo Kent sent me of mine, this was right after it was off-loaded from the truck. They hadn't done the PDI yet. Definitely needs a bath, antenna installed, plastic removed, etc.

I think they are shipped with the tonneau/tailgate locked (tonneau is required for dual top since the soft top is locked in the bed), so you should be hobo free there. ;)

LEs are only hard tops. Started the rumor they would throw in the dual top for our trouble, but we all know Jeep doesn't really care about stringing us along for 6 months...

If someone ordered a (non-LE) with the dual top, they ship the soft top in the bed. So when they try and place a dual top order, the order system forces them to add one of the tonneau covers (hard, soft or roll up) so they can lock the soft top in the bed for transport.
