Yeah, unfortunately that's basically what the Ordering section of the forum is, people complaining about being stuck in __ status for X days. I mean, just look at the titles that continue to be on the first page week after week: "Post your 2020 JT Gladiator build status", "New Poll - who is...
I think the Punk'N's last week weren't color match. Regardless, there was a Granite Crystal Metallic LE (i.e. color matched top and fenders) built around Memorial Day, yet they are still saying they can't seem to be able to paint them. And completely get they've been painting JLs/JKs and RAMs in...
Well, over on the Granite Crystal Metallic side of the house, Jeep keeps telling us they have been having problems painting the metallic colors (cleaning nozzles, matching body parts, etc.). Personally, I'm calling BS since they have been making Billet Silver Metallic JTs for a while now (and...
Wow! That sucks. Hope you heal. Jeep can be repaired or replaced!
No discount due to delay here. My dealer had said it would probably be August before I saw mine. If it slips too much longer I think that date is in jeopardy and would be "late".
(like was for the update, not for the outcome)
One thing I thought I'd make a note of. Went to a local dealer Sunday to drive their JT Rubi while I (continue) to wait for my Granite LE. I humored the sales guy and let him pull up the inventory he has coming in (told him I didn't like the build & color of the one on the lot). He showed me the...
Go to your local dealer and drive one once in a while to keep your interest. I did that on Sunday. It was a stripped Rubi, so helped remind me the wait for the LE will be worth it. But I hear what you are saying the longer this drags on, the less excitement there is about it. The only other LE...
Who's left on the Granite Crystal Metallic wait list? Had a few more drop in the last week or two...

Hopefully we start seeing some movement on these this week!
So your estimated build date hasn't changed for the last month or so? And you have body colored fenders but black top, correct? Trying to see if fenders or tops continue to hold up the LEs...
Here ya go. Only JT Rubi they had on the lot. Only has 8.4" audio, tow package and black roof. First time I drove one was at this dealer in May and they had just got in the first 5 or so and were asking $3k over MSRP. They are down to "only" MSRP now...
Drove by a dealer on the way home from paddleboarding today and took a stripped JT Rubi for another spin. Feel bad stringing that sales guy along, but need to drive one every couple of months while this wait drags on...
My thought exactly. Would have paid for itself with all of the EcoDiesel problems, but on the established 3.6L powertrain on the JL/JT I wouldn't waste my money on it. My thoughts on extended warrainties were on thread...
See this thread. It's already been discussed, with a DIY work around until factory ones are available.
