Yep....I went with the X Terrain also...now waiting for the damn thing to arrive.... great price point for release...just didn't bank on Covid hitting production and stock. And I drive past the jeep dealer watching a perfectly good JT Rubi just gathering dust...a real shame on the $$$

That is a really unfortunate "soft start"...I genuinely wonder what figures (sales predictions) Jeep Aust was planning. It would be even more interesting to know how many are Wrangler owners who switched...so cut their own market share

wow...things must be a bit more grim than I suspected...just got an email note (generic jeep ad) asking of interest of an LE (with a bonus drone ) If they can't move 100 LE's, then something aint right!

Unfortunately I’m calling it.... It’s getting whacked across multiple sites as not a lot of truck for way to much coin. All call it fun, but no real class leading anything Reducing the specs.... even tyre size for goodness sake! FCA dropped the ball in a big way

That’s a nice rig. You’ve done well... I know 5 blokes who have cancelled their deposits on confirmation of final price.

QUOTE="MudderTruker, post: 464875, member: 24002"]WOW ... that is a big statement! When Jeep are expecting up to be the 2nd biggest market! Below is a response I gave to someone else in a similar discusssion...I'll caveat my points in that I worked in automotive manufacturing for 20+years and...

Just mind boggling stuff from FCA

I honestly believe that if they sell (not to dealers) 1000 units, that would be nothing short of a miracle

I am declaring the Gladiator dead in Aust before it has even begun...damn shame. Approx $74K, $82K and $92 K on road....under spec, over priced....they even reduced the tyre size FFS...on an off road market! The dream for me is dead

Ha ha ha... yep, just saw it... so everyone is singing the same tune

Where did you pick this nugget up?

Seem to be, he also showed on the side what the “packs” will be eg adventure, safety etc... what colours. Can’t fault the honesty at the dealer. I openly stated my concern at lack of space for dual battery, ramp over, and surprise that they weren’t targeting a competitor.... he did play the...

We had the sting grey which looked pretty schmick....

My initial thought is wait until Jan 2021 and then it is a last year plate sale...so technically should be $5K cheaper straight up...

Did you recieve similar information/news?

If they had have come in below a raptor then they would have gone close to a win... but the specs v cost don’t match line for line with competitors.... it’s a worry.... I’ve always wanted a Jeep and I drive a dc Ute... I am the exact target market and it’s looking like a miss!

Technically they had 4 In showroom they had an overland and a rubicon... they also had the same to display at local shopping centre

It’s starting to p!ss me off that a lot of dealers are saying “we don’t know pricing yet”... when they do know the general windows within a grand or two.... It’s like they know they are about to cop it across social media for crazy price structure

Unfortunate it matches the us conversion based in jk costs, matches the numbers put out by the journos and confirmed in approximation by a couple of salesman today....

Think we were seeing Mercedes x class mk2 .... no more than 100 people will pay that coin, even for an admittedly good vehicle.... I’d say it’s 10k minimum overs across the range....
