My Sarge Green Sport S (SgtCarter) just made it to the tracker (apparently late last night?!) .... My ship date is the 15th so hopefully it will be close that that in the end.

Hey David ... looks like you and I are the only ones tracking these in Texas ... go update the spreadsheet ( //docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AzFo9H6Fm6LwVtMYgzmK7AB-M1T-FliaDf2S90wzcss/edit?usp=sharing ) with your status ... I assume you're in D1 by now?

Thanks again Kent ... so if I understand correctly, the shackle mounts on the metal cloak are 1" thick (wide?) and the 1" Roadmaster adapters on the tow bar work without needing the sleeve ... If so then that's ideal.
This is very helpful. In the end I'm kicking myself for letting my towing...
Hey Kent, one more question on this topic ... I've now sold my old JKU with all my towing kit including tow bar so I'm basically going to be starting over from scratch. I've also had a chance to talk to a local fabricator about towing with the shackle mounts and he basically echoed your comments...
I ordered 10/28 and within a few days (see previous post) I had my vin and an estimated ship date of 12/8. Today my dealer sent (at my request) a copy of the POC which now states a ship date of 12/15 which I'm feeling a bit more optimistic about ... but I won't be surprised if I don't see it...
"
it looks like they didn't upgrade me to the 8.4 screen like i asked them to. does the 7 inch screen have android auto?"
Yes, the 7" UConnect radio does support Android Auto and Carplay.
Sunday musings while I (we) wait for 2022 build sheets and Window Stickers.....
I've seen the reference to MY22 production start of 11/22 or 12/8 quite a bit in various forums and sources. 11/22 seems to have more traction from what I can tell.
Here's a couple of thoughts I ponder on this...
Bear in mind ... the DEALER told me it's status was D1. When I traded chat with jeepchat I didn't think to ask the status but was told the expected delivery date was 12/8 which agreed with what the dealer told me.
In a day or so I'll get an update from jeepchat and get a better up to date...
Just got a note from my dealer .. I have a VIN!! D1 status with a preliminary ship date (per dealer) of Dec 8th?!
Dec 8 seems optimistic but I can hope for an early xmas :)

That's my understanding as well. Ask a dealer you're working with but be specific... I ran into one dealer in the dfw area who was convinced there were no programs available like the affiliate deal. When i challenged him on it he got miffed and we parted ways. A day later he called to let me...
Thanks Kent.... I'm curious about your specific bumper. I went to the website mentioned in your post and saw what appeared to be a bumper similar to yours. However it had a statement/ warning that it was not engineered or intended for flat towing. Was your bumper a special order or something not...
Sorry for the delay on progress...I had a lengthy response all typed out on another computer here at the house and was proof reading it all when my internet died (Suddenlink SUCKS!!) ... then I lost it all on a reboot I guess.
For those following the thread ... yes, I now have a VON for a new...
I'm in the process of fitting out a new JT and was wondering about what I needed to be compatible with my current tow set up.
your bumper looks good .. currently I'm running a blue ox base plate on my old JK with the tow bar. I take it in your setup here, you disconnect the D rings and attach...
