OK, here's my interesting story. I ordered a Rubicon diesel from my local small town dealership. I also ordered the brake controller from the parts parts department and it came in a while back. I told the parts manager and my salesman that I was going to install it myself.
My new Rubicon diesel...
I pick mine up in the morning from the dealer. Did the paperwork yesterday, but they put tires and wheels on for me today. Here is my build and the status as I checked. I feel really lucky to get it in six weeks!
Rubicon diesel, granite crystal, body color top and fender flares, dark saddle...
I ordered the Dark Saddle seats as well. Haven't negotiated a price yet, will do that after delivery. I did put down a $1K deposit when I ordered from a small town dealership. Not sure what is taking so long for yours. Good luck!
I have a Granite Rubicon Diesel on order.
