Okay, so here I sit.

Ordered May 31st and has been in D1 since June 29th.

Pretty much fully loaded but no spray in bed liner or hardtop headliner (I ordered this for my 1st order and should be sitting at the dealer's parts but they have gone pretty much dark on me...).

Where are the rest of you with similar order date and fully loaded order?

I waited 16 weeks for my first Gladiator which showed up damaged and I thought that was a long time, even the dealer felt bad about that long a lead time.

Ordered April 20th. Was just texting with the GM at the dealership. They have no clue.

A few weeks later in my order but still hasn't moved in weeks... I got all the options on my Gobi Mojave... the only thing I didn't get (because it wasn't available on the dealer's system that day) was the spray-in bed liner, sun-rider top, and Gorilla glass. I also didn't get the smokers thing (I don't smoke), nor the half-doors (not really my thing). But got everything else.

I wonder if getting all the options slows things down...

What other colors do the dashboards come in?
And what's a passenger side tire deflector bracket?
Rubicons are "supposed" to come with red dashboard trim. Seems like they might have run out, and are substituting dark grey trim on many current Rubicon deliveries. Some people are not happy about this (I don't care)

The tire deflector is a bracket bolted to the passenger side, right behind the front tire. Seems to be designed to mitigate some problem in a serious crash. Started fairly recently, but not all trucks get them. Might possibly hang up on rocks, but it can be unbolted. Several threads about it

You went with a Gobi Rubicon this time instead of your red? Good choice, hope you hear something soon.

My Jeep Tracker still shows scheduled but no date. It now does NOT show a picture of my jeep though. Weird glitch or does it mean some backend movement?

The picture of mine was replaced with Jeep for a day or two then went back.

Yup, only good thing about this delay.

Still trying to find out what the dealer will be doing the price increases that took place since the initial order. They’ve said a lot of things but won’t commit. They are a new dealership so understand some of their struggles but I am the customer and no one likes to be kept in the dark in something major like a new Jeep Gladiator $$$$

I hear you, especially after your first order fiasco. Hope it works out in your favor. I know the price went up about $1,200 since my initial order to when I picked it up and they kept their end of the deal.

I guess I was just hoping it to mean something might be updating haha. Like when the photo comes back it is changed to in production.

Yeah, that would so cool if they could actually pic a pic of your order on the assembly line when it goes into production!

I did a European delivery a few years ago with a Volvo, and thought it was such a great option to have. Got a cool vacation in Sweden, got to tour the factory (they even fed us lunch!), then drove our car to Amsterdam (you can choose other countries/cities), from where they shipped our car to the U.S. The wait wasn't even that bad... got our wagon in like 5 weeks or so. I left my hat in the glove compartment to see if they didn't switch the vehicle... and sure enough, my baseball cap was still there!

I think it would be so cool if Jeep did something similar! Imagine picking it up straight from the factory and driving it home! (A factory tour and no annoying dealership decals or license plate frames. haha)
