And this from my sales rep: FCA training dealerships on the Jeep Gladiator in late March. He confirmed they would be in stores by late April or early May 2019

That's huge if true. Maybe I'll be able to have a JT with a late-availability color by this summer after all. Part of the summer, anyway.

wont it take years for them to ramp up production from this though? Even if they're buying an existing factory, it still has to be retooled, i believe.

I think it's for the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer, which aren't due for a couple more years.

The biggest issue with this new plant is how does FCA pay for the plant? My fear is that they pay for it by charging a bloody fortune for the Gladiator and every other car and SUV they sell.
