Anyone know where things stand in the Launch Edition delivery debacle?
I’m currently in Granite Crystal Metallic purgatory... wondered if anyone had an estimate of how many LE’s have already been built and delivered, so we could better judge how many more (along with our late avail GCM’s) still need to be built! ;{

Picked ours up on Friday. The Granite Crystals were advertised as late availability so I think you're good for August delivery. Hang in there, well worth the wait!

So... there were only 20 Granite Crystal LE’s ordered? Because they didn’t start down the line until today! (Assuming the worker in Toledo actually exists!) Hunh... then they should be built and shipped in no time! :please: ;{

I'm assuming guy doesn't know what he's talking about. but fingers crossed! for them to only make 20 granites out of 4,190 would be pretty sweet!

Plus, like I said, it shouldn’t take any time at all for 20 to be built and shipped! Alas... I suspect “Cheffullofit” is probably full-of-it! Wish @JeepCares would respond! Surely FCA knows how many LE’s have been built & delivered!
Still hoping against hope, that our dear friend “Toledo worker” is real, and honest! ;{

How are you determining that there will only be 20 built?

I find it odd that only 20 granite crystal LEs are being built. I understand the math but that color was available to be ordered from the get go and considering how popular of a color it is the numbers just don't make sense. Logic would dictate a more even distribution amongst the 5 colors. The only logical explanation is that a lot of dealers ordered them right away in the readily available colors knowing they would sell.

The 20 number is more of a poke at the dealer who said 4170 were already built. I think we are still tracking more than 20 Granite LEs on the tracking spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18CzyrrDuUyLk1NNhpOmoabLIUt6JA3BXtR-Tlbthhec/edit#gid=0), and that's just forum members who have entered their information. There are many more out there not on the sheet.
