I ordered mine from Travis at Tri-City.
Stateline didn't want to offer any deals and Lake Norman lies on their radio ads. They claim to guarantee to meet any deal - not true. They say they do not have to discount Rubicons....
Where did you order yours?

Not yet. It's only been 3 business days since the order went in. Another guy on the forum posted recently he got his VIN after just a week so hopefully mine will come in a couple days. I'll keep y'all posted.

Mine has been in JB status now since Thursday. I can only assume there is a backlog or delay happening with the spray in liners.
I would have assumed that it was a day or 2 process at most.
It's looking like my gator will not be arriving until sometime after the 2nd week of November if it's still in JB status.
Any other west coasters get confirmation on transport yet? I'm curious how long that will take

Same as you. Stateline wouldn't offer anything and even got mad at me because I didn't want the 57K overland they had in stock. I told them call me when green was in, they called me a few weeks before and I was like did you misread your notes? Call me when green is ready. Checked their website turned out they had a ton of stupidly configured ones on the lot.
Lake Norman wasn't offering anything at all but at least seemed willing to place an order, I gave instructions to them as well to call me when green is available.
Neither dealer even called me after green was available and still hasn't.
Travis won my business by offering a discount and not even trying to sell me the crap on the lot. Never even had to do a phone call except for the deposit. Only thing that is going to suck is the 6 hours of driving to get this car...

Yes i ordered from a dealership in Winnie outside beaumont. There is a distribution yard south of houston, and from what i understand there is one outside DFW area (there may be others in Texas as well), so depending on what hub your dealer receives its vehicles from could mean its on the same load.. i would assume logistically that the train would go to DFW and then on to Houston if they do that kind of routing?

But the drive back will be ear to ear no doubt...

True, though driving 150 miles isn't how I wanted to learn how to drive my new truck. Coming from a Prius and a Van, might be a slight learning curve. lol

Mine is destined for Georgetown too, though I don’t have a sticker yet.
Edit: I’m in KZ status

I ordered exactly 1 month after you. I'd just like to have my Gladiator for Christmas.

Man your coming in all the way from Boston. Guess I should be happy about my 2.5 hour drive. Looks like Tri City is the best dealership over a pretty long distance.
