CDI gets EP pricing 5% under invoice if i'm not mistaken. Tread lightly and others FFP is 1% under invoice. This is to the best of my knowledge.
Yeah, the EP number they gave me appears to be roughly 5% off. I think they're assuming my FCA Number is for employee pricing, but it will come back as 1% below when they submit the number....

It's interesting to me that there wasn't some kind of an announcement to dealers, about orders being open. So weird.

I blasted emails out to the dealers I've been talking to. Some said it was open and sent me invoices immediately. One told me orders are not yet open. Another told me he "just got off the phone with FCA as of right now, no dealer can order a Jeep Gladiator outside of the release series. Any dealer that has told you different is just telling you a story to get you to place the order with them and wait for it to open up so they can place it."

Yeah I've only bounced around between white and silver so it's go time a far as I'm concerned. Hoping that saddle leather looks as good in person.
Here's a new video I just saw that shows the saddle leather pretty well:



You can see it in other parts of the video, but that spot gives you some still shots.

4 colors only?
Just got back from dealer, yes, 4 colors only. Went into the dealer order system and configured a silver Gladiator. I didnt pull trigger, still deciding if I can wait for Gator or not.

I really hope ppl arnt just impulse ordering a truck, and not even getting the color they desire haha. This is getting foolish now almost. If you prefer cloth over leather and have your heart set on gator or Gobi...just wait it out. Buying something like a vehicle just because you have to have it doesn’t make much sense. Patience people
I agree 100%. Waiting for a couple months means:
  • I can get a late availability color with the exact options I want
  • The production line will have a little time to shake out by the time my order hits the line
  • There will be more real-world reviews (not just from press events)
  • I can go test drive one at my local dealer and see some things in person before I order anything
  • A lot of little lingering questions will probably be answered before I have to make decisions (e.g., how does the tonneau cover handle freeway speeds?)
  • The deals will probably be better, or I may be able to get a good deal closer to home without having to fly to Idaho

FYI I just got an email from a local dealership telling me that they can order anything except a base Sport model.

Well, since leather was required for a Rubicon today, my wife insisted on adding the Cold Weather package (no use spending money twice to get Katzkin). There is a small window of time in which orders can be altered, so if the leather only requirement vanishes, I’ll replace Leather and cold weather with the 8.4” screen and front camera
