Don’t think the dealership honoring it will be as big a problem as the wait time for ordering and the risk of gladiators no longer being eligible. MY22s supposedly won’t start hitting the dealers for another 8 weeks or so. I normally wouldn’t be too worried, but I think wranglers have always...
They are definitely 17 inch on my gladiator. Not sure if they just ran out of sport wheels at the end of the model year and had to give me something or if they’re the new Sport S or Max Tow standard wheels. There were a few other guys who ordered Sport S Max Tow builds around the same time as me...
It is a max tow (forgot to mention that even though I’m always supposed to… lol) and both the build sheet and window sticker just say 17–Inch x 7.5–Inch Gloss–Black Aluminum Wheels. My dealer did say it’s the only gladiator he’s seen with those rims. When I originally built the gladiator on the...
Not sure if there the same as the new 22s, but I ordered a 21 Sport S that wasn’t built until late September and the black aluminum rims that came standard aren’t the old traditional 5 spoke, they’re actually pretty nice.
I put a pic of my rims below.
For me it was 2 days. I checked with Jeep chat on Monday and they said my gladiator was built and awaiting options so I checked and build sheet showed up (wasn’t showing when I checked last Friday). Window sticker just showed up this morning and dealer told me I was in KZS status awaiting shipping.
That might be the case as my build sheet said Window Material: Glass on it, which actually made me think it was not going to have gorilla glass, but window sticker just showed up and it has gorilla glass on it.
Ordered my Sport S Max Tow back on June 23rd and just found out its in KZS status, so just waiting to be shipped. I also remember another user who ordered theirs a few days after me, hopefully his got built too.
So it finally happened, the Sport S I ordered back on 06/23 finally has a build sheet. Everything looks good on it except the gorilla glass isn’t listed. I thought I remembered seeing someone else somewhere say it didn’t show up on their build sheet but it did on their window sticker.
Can anyone...
Delivery windows get pushed out all the time. I ordered on June 23rd and they still haven’t even started building my Sport yet, despite having a shipping date of 09/18 after I finally made it to D1 status (after 11 weeks in D status). My new ship date is 10/06 but I doubt they’ll make that...
Best I could find in NJ was the 1% below invoice that tread lightly membership gives you. I even went in with a build sheet and pricing from a dealer in MD who was giving 5% below invoice and they basically said just take that deal because they couldn’t match it. Ended up ordering from Criswell...
I’m not sure about the status right now, but it wasn’t available for Sport S in the June guide either, but I was still able to order one back in late June. Of course they still haven’t built it yet, but it did finally move to D1 status after about 12 weeks.
The trim you order seems to make a big difference right now as Jeep appears to be prioritizing the higher profit models like rubicons and mojaves. I know of a few other forum users as well as myself who ordered Sports (mine is a Sport S Max Tow) back in June and are still in D status with no...
The sad part is some of us tried to do that and Jeep has decided not to build some gladiators but won’t tell us why. I ordered on June 23rd and as of today (11 weeks later) they are still gathering parts to schedule my build. I’ve begged Jeep chat to tell me why they won’t build it so I can put...
They have to be prioritizing the higher profit builds. I ordered two days after you and my max tow is in the same limbo. At first I made a drinking game where I’d take a shot every time someone ordered a month after me and already got their Rubicon or Mojave, but then after blacking out every...
Congrats on the new gladiator… must be nice to be able to go to the dealer and then get right behind the wheel and drive it off the lot. I ordered mine back in June and still don’t even have a build date or anything, just a whole lot of (impatiently) waiting.
Have a friend who has a bare bones Willys and his one regret wasn’t the lack of power winders, but rather the lack of power door locks. This becomes an even bigger deal if you have kids or will frequently have rear seat passengers. Having to reach back to unlock doors gets old quick, and when...
I have no idea what normal build times are anymore and I don’t think anyone at Jeep does either. When I ordered back in June order estimates were 5 - 8 weeks, tomorrow will be 8 weeks and I’ve heard nothing since getting a VIN 2 days after my order was put in. No one can tell me why they won’t...
I ordered back on June 23rd and I’m not even sure if I’m getting my gladiator by December. After 4 weeks when I was still in the gathering parts for your build phase, I started asking Jeep chat why so many others were getting build dates and estimated ship dates as far out as November but I had...
I want to mount the redarc in the same spot as you did (if my gladiator ever gets built, but that’s a whole other story). What is it mounted to in the opening? It looks like one of the redarc switch insert panels but I was wondering which one and how it fits in the cubby.
Also, how do you like...
It’s not just rubicons that are delayed… I ordered a Sport S max tow back on June 23rd, had a VIN within 2 days and they’ve been gathering parts for my build ever since. I’m almost to the point of asking Jeep chat if I can just come down to Toledo and rummage through their parts bins to gather...
