What rumor? All I know is between the tracker and no communication from my dealer all I've got is a VIN and D status. Summer is almost over here in the PNW and I can't really think of reason why I need an JT at all.

Updated your info.

The estimated ship dates are all over the map and not in order of VINs/VONs. It does look like roughly the first 1/3 of the list has scheduled ship dates 8/29-8/31, and the rest are 9/4-9/6 (both ~3 day windows with Labor Day in between).

And then there’s me and Rubicon Bob... slipped thru the cracks, and lost somewhere, in the void, between 8/29 & 8/31...
I hereby claim right to “4190” forfeited by Kayakmike, when he received his 9/6 ShipDate! ;{

@WildJD, since we didn't get dates before or after Labor Day, maybe ours will be done on Labor Day weekend. We can only hope.

Where did you order yours, West Hills? I guess that I won't bee alone in our neck of the woods! Got my Vin on 8-15 with a D1 Status after talking to my new sales rep, my original one, John K. took is retirement!

VIN 144617

@NoiseBoy303 Yup West Hills has my order. The only time I get a status is when I go down there and ask. Who is your sales rep? We should probably compare notes when it comes time for the paper work.

They are throwing in dual tops for all of us who have been waiting for 20 weeks now! There, the rumor is officially started. Now it just needs to make it's way back to Jeep and have them act on it.

By "certain designated individuals," I'm guessing you think we should qualify for employee pricing or friends & family pricing (which looks like it was announced this morning)? I'm already getting 5% under invoice on mine, which beats EP.

My dealer e-mailed me last night and said the Silver LE is arriving later this week (waiting for car carrier from Salt Lake City to Idaho). I can't get there until Labor Day weekend anyway, which is right around when my Granite could ship (9/6). Think I'll finish this Granite ride to the end with the rest of you & hope Jeep doesn't screw us during our builds and meets the estimated ship dates.

Well no matter what they are offering lets make sure that everyone on here is made aware of it. Anything they would offer is a plus but I would certainly love the discounted pricing.

Here is what I just posted in the Manual Transmission Club thread, but it is just as apropos in this one:

Context: I was told by Jeep Chat on 8/12 that I was in D1. Subsequent Jeep Chats, however, reported that I was in D (one even claimed I was in C). A regression that is at this point not at all surprising to any of us.

New information: Today I contacted my dealer and it was reported that I have an estimated ship date of 8/27. He then told me he would send me the POC (Priced Order Confirmation) form by which this information was based. On this form it does indeed include the date reported. Yet--YET--on this same form it reports the status as 'C - Tentative schedule'.

What in the good god hell am I to make of this? I have a ship date! This is splendid news, the best progress I have yet heard about my specific order. YET AT THE SAME TIME I HAVE A STATUS THAT SEEMINGLY CONTRADICTS THE VERY NOTION OF HAVING AN ASSOCIATED DATE OF ANY KIND! Truly, I have no idea if I should be amped or angry.

My Von is Low (43590447) from an Early AM 4/4/19 order.
If it's true that CG LE's are no longer pink unicorns,
I'll be ecstatic with any August ship-date.
FYI: My Existing car lease ends 8/31 and I'm too old to walk to work.

UPDATE Dealer Txted me VIN 144448 {Good News it look like low # on CG LE List - There is Hope}

Well. I have been in D/D1 status for 10 weeks. Currently D1 for 2nd time but my dealer said it still shows the first ship date on 7-26 when I went to D1 the first time. Don’t think that is possible. So I pretty much believe chat is pretty useless. And Jeff from where my case was elevated is no help. Guess I will just wait til my dealer calls and says it is ready to be picked up.

^^^^^^
This here is my biggest concern. The Granite LEs have finally moved to D1 after 4 months of C hell, with estimated ship dates starting next week. But what if Jeep starts pulling this BS on those of us who have been waiting 20 weeks now to get this close? Pushing back ship dates, or even worse as some others are seeing today, back to C status? Or some folks finding out there orders were cancelled by Jeep, just to start the process all over again.

Right now this is the main reason I'm still considering switching to Silver LE, since I know I'd have it in hand. Dropped by the Jeep dealer on the way home and climbed around a Silver JLUR (no Granite JLs on the lot). I'd stick with Granite if I knew 100% I'd see it before Oct. 3 (6 months after ordering!).

Yeah. My dealer is getting a Punkin soon that I could get as well as a Sting Gray and it just drives me crazy that they can get one of those that soon and all you LE guys have been waiting an eternity and I am at 10 weeks. It would Ben nice if someone at FCA or somewhere could explain why they would produce Punkin before satisfying 4 month old orders. This is first new vehicle I have ever ordered. I have bought plenty but never ordered. This has soured me on the whole process and don’t think I will ever do it again.
