Aloha Everyone, I put in my order for a Gobi Rubicon last week and just received my VIN and VON. Love the Gobi color and so glad they brought it back. Same color as my tank from my Army days and bonus points because it doesn't look dirty, even when dirty. And the color does a decent job of reflecting sunlight more so than darker colors which is cooler in the summer. My last TJ was very similar in color also before I lost her in a typhoon out in Guam.

I bet I know which typhoon it was. Pongsonna

I bet you I know which typhoon! Pongsona! Lol. I got there right after it hit… I was stationed at the Naval Hospital.

Don't know if I missed it earlier or not but Cryptosticker shows @USMC_1Wire6337 at the top of the list for Gladiators. Congrats man.
I ordered before any of the ones that are showing up so not sure what's going on with mine.

Yeah. Received an email a while ago. Kent emailed me this morning that Jeep is finished and waiting to get loaded on a train. I think the only thing that let me fast track was the minimal build of Sport S. All I got was:

Heritage Tan seats
Aux switches
Popular Equipment
Max Tow

Might have lucked out and got lumped in with a bunch of other basic builds.

Not sure why I like a crazy person check cryptosticker every day. This is my second Jeep i've tracked on that site and it's not like they forgot to email me updates the first time. So when I woke up this morning and looked at my email and saw I had a build sheet, it was just another reminder that there is no reason to check cryptostickers, they'll let me know.

That being said, here's my story thus far. Gobi Manual Mojave. Hardtop, aux, tow, wheel locks and nothing else. Ordered 3/15. VIN within a week. D status as soon as VIN came. D1 around 5/6 with an estimated ship date of 5/17. Build sheet showed up on 5/18.

Two bits here. Not speaking facts, just adding credence to rumors i've heard:
1. "Shipping date" that Jeep gives dealers is the expected date for all the parts they ordered for your Jeep to arrive at the factory, not the date they expect your Jeep to ship out. Don't know if that's true, but with ship date ETA of 5/17 and build sheet date of 5/18 it seems to line up for me.
2. Whoever 'leaked' that Gobi was gonna start production on 5/9 sure seems to have been correct. No idea if it was real information or just a bald faced guess.

Edit: Jeep chat says it's in shipping status, which is odd because they build these over 2 days and on Monday morning they said it was still in scheduling. Maybe they started it Monday afternoon and finished it yesterday night? Who knows? EIther way ETA to dealer is 5/23-6/6. Also dealer confirmed KZ status. Being in NJ my last gladiator was pure trucking with no rail involvement, and showed up pretty damn early. That being said this one seems to be at a rail yard? Maybe it's just a staging base for all shipping? I dont know. Let's hope for the same luck i got last time!

Can't wait to see the photos of the first arrivals! I just got an "estimated shipping date" of 5/20. Which means I expect that it might start being built 5/20 or early next week. Order date was 4/8.

Now let's hope new car interest rates don't ?.

I checked Jeep Chat last night and they told me my Gladiator was still in scheduling waiting to be built. Today I got a text message picture from my dealership showing it was now in Paint!!! Finally it's on the move.

He also said they received a Gobi Rubicon on today's truck that was ordered a week before I put my order in.

Nearing a month with no change in order status since receiving the VIN. Gobi altitude with no other adds. Feeling bad

Don’t worry…. that’s how my order was too…

I feel the same way. As soon as gobi was announced I jumped on it and haven’t had a change since I got my vin on 3/10.

Got an email from crypto that sticker was found but it's not coming up for me yet. So excited! I agree the race is on for the first pics of a delivered Gobi!

Earlier today, I noticed that my build sheet pulled up on Jeep’s self service page:
https://www.jeep.com/webselfservice/BuildSheetServlet?vin= …you can track yours if just add you vin number after the equal sign.
So, I then checked with Jeep chat and they told me I’m in shipping stage, but could not give an ETA.
So, here’s the thing, given how close mine will likely hit just before Jun 1, and that there are currently no incentives for my region, I’m planning to actually wait to take delivery on the 1st or second to have a better shot at some type of incentives. Btw, my sales manager shared that they’ll have a call late morning 6/1 to discuss the June incentives. Just sharing if it would help anyone else’s wallet.
- Gobi Mojave, aux, tow, auto, hrdtop, remote start, maybe something else That I’m forgetting.

Thanks! I was able to pull up my build sheet this way. Crypto seems to have found my window sticker, but it's not coming up for me yet. Hopefully will tomorrow.
