I was granite until I hastily submitted my web order and noticed I left it on the default color of billet. Then I started bouncing between them and decided I actually liked the contrast of billet more and stuck with it. I could have changed it as they asked me to verify/choose my color - I guess...

I'd walk away. The finance person at my dealership balked a bit at the FCA (1% below invoice, TreadLightly) but accepted it. There are a couple of nice bits on the LE but I wouldn't even pay MSRP for it, not when I can just wait a bit and custom order a vehicle with the same functional features...

10:13am; VON: 43586684 Build Status: BA - Pending Order

When I confirmed my LE purchase I was told customer orders wouldn't be until start of May. Initial production is dealer pre-specs and the LE models. Unfortunately there will be conflicting information I'm sure as a lot of things don't seem to have much consistency.

Same experience as others for most part (called, connected to local dealer). The sales guy didn't balk at FCA pricing but the finance guy took a double take and then when I said I had a control number and that it was the case elsewhere he said it would be fine. Question is if the 1% below...

Concierge called me at 8am with a local number from a small town in Montana (Havre). I answered because I knew a call was coming through but I kind of expected a 800 number or a number from 419 area code (missed opportunity there). Dropped the $500 with the dealer. Like others reported the...

They've never listed it with a manual - all postings and option listings I've seen have been automatic. With how crazy things have gone and the weird information about when these will get built (vs other custom orders or dealer prebuilt models) you may just get your custom ordered manual...

Cripes...you're right. I now have a pdf with my control number.

It doesn't seem to be 60 days total - the root post on Treadlightly Trez63 did his membership on Feb 19, received package on the 1st and was able to get a control number on March 14th. It seems to be 30-ish days from the purchase of the membership. I bought mine on March 22nd. Haven't received...

I gave up on the resale approach to vehicle buying. I buy it and drive it until its basically worthless. Depending on how this first model year goes, there may be some 1 year old models on lots next year and although they'll be cheaper than new, sometimes depending on demand they can be close to...

Thanks for the email, but doesn't that email just say "wait and we'll send you another link" or is there a link in there that isn't active yet? The one button on the email just goes to the general information site.

Gotcha - this is the first time I've been in such a situation (a fool and his money). I have no idea how quick these kinds of things go for. When I started exploring this class of vehicle the Chevy Bison ZR2 was interesting and they only allocated just over 4k units and they sold out fast on...

Does anyone know if the 3rd "invitations" is just a website link that anyone can visit? I know I signed up for emails and I haven't gotten an invitation yet but would be more than happy to take care of things on the 3rd than risk the 4th and missing the cutoff on the 4190. If anyone is feeling...

The Jeep.com website says you can order the launch edition this Thursday the 4th. It doesn't say "all other versions available too" but unless they are trying to stagger the two sets of orders, I don't know why they wouldn't allow orders of other setups. I guess another outstanding question is...

I have the features on my Cherokee Trailhawk and I wouldn't have a vehicle without them. I speed less (since I don't have to cancel cruise and pass people to maintain my speed) and can basically "set it and forget it" and it handles slow downs in construction zones and speeds back up and all...

No, it is included. From jeep.com: A Rubicon with a Winch-Capable Steel Front Bumper( Disclosure4) / Forward-Facing TrailCam Off-Road Camera( Disclosure5) /Removable Body-Color Freedom Top® Hardtop / Front Black Heated Leather-Trimmed Seats / 8.4-Inch Touchscreen with Alpine® Nine-Speaker...

I'm considering, but I'm waiting to see if the April 1st "more info" says things like if packages can be added - as I don't see the cold weather package and I'm old and it gets cold in Montana. It would be a deal breaker if it couldn't be added. Otherwise, I was planning on getting a loaded...

Here's a video about how much an idling engine uses and start stop fuel savings. I think his end result is about 7 seconds, but my guess is it may have some variation based on motor, specific design choices and all that.

I'm one of those goofballs that plans on a loaded Rubicon. I've got technology/safety packages in my other vehicles and I've decided I can't live without adaptive cruise control. Over the past seven years I've only had collision avoidance kick in twice, but both times it may have prevented an...

The wife and I have busy work lives and I'd like to do the overlanding thing and get away from it all. The idea of a self-contained, no trailer, and most any road capable vehicle interests me. The journey will be in getting it setup for our needs. I'm envisioning a tent on a rack above the bed...
