Kind of a dirtbag thing for that dealer to do. Makes you wonder how many of the LE versions went to dealerships and not customers.
In their listing:
***** DO NOT HIT THE BUY IT NOW BUTTON ***** AS THERE ARE MULTIPLE AVAILABLE

Poor suckers who jump at that. Ltd editions with FCA have always been a hyped up joke. The 10a Rubicon became a normal available model within 6 months less a badge you could buy online. No way should you ever pay extra for a supposed Ltd production or series FCA product. Unless your buying it at a price you would a regular one, you got suckered! There is no novelty or extra value in these so called special editions as they never wind up being that exclusive or special.

You could fake it fairly easily too. A few badges here and there. Biggest hassle would be replacing the dash trim. The wheels will inevitably be on craiglist for cheap. OEM wheels always are. What am I missing?

A quick google search and the dealer is Frank Fletcher Dodge Chrysler Jeep. Mark Miller (the same name on ebay listing) is the general manager at that dealership.

They must have created fake orders or had their employees signed up and make a "deposit" to secure the LEs

Normal shadiness that goes on in the life of a dealership. Too bad they don’t get nailed by FCA.

I sent a link to the EBay listing to Jeep Cares. I have my LE reserved so it doesn’t really affect me but it does cheat someone who is playing by the rules. Kinda like some college admissions scandal we have heard so much about. Some people either think they are better than everyone else or they don’t think they will get caught.

Some guy is listing the gladiator on FB marketplace. Only thing is it was the black one from the ATL auto show. Idiot.

I can see your point. Is there any options on the LE that can't be ordered on a run of the mill truck by checking all the relevant options?

Apart from the Badging of course.

Nice. I tagged it to eBay as a fraudulent ad. (There is no way that Vin is correct)
