5/14 ordered date; D status around 5/23. No updates since then.
Just got update from Jeep chat - still in D status. The chat agent advised that it could be in this status for “up to two weeks”. Or even longer based on experience of some here. Ugh... Hopefully this is an assembly strategy to send many MT trucks down the line together, rather than a parts issue on the MT units.

They are waiting on all the m/t until I get my order in after crystal granite becomes available in about a week. Then they will build all of your m/t along with mine. :like:

Go to jeep.com look for contact and then chat. They will need the von and some info from you. Then they will give you the current status.

I'm not up to speed. Has actual customer ordered m/t appeared in the wild? Not to change gears, but look at this!

There are no manuals anywhere yet. I kinda wonder if they have a dedicated production line for the manual gladiators, but it’s not up and running yet.

They are built on the same line as the rest of them, but there are built in batches. My understanding is that they have to receive so many orders then they release that batch to be built. At least this is how it worked when I ordered my manual JK.

Ordered 5/11. D like everyone else.

Given they said somewhere way back that April and May production were Pre Spec builds, I guess I didn't expect it to go into build status until June at earliest, and then I ordered after probably thousands of others.

I have my expectation bar set at August 31st. Anything sooner will be a plus. Just want it in with enough time left to enjoy some fall weather with the top off.

Ordered 4/26, went to D and got my VIN on 5/6

I was told the same thing as others. Can spend up to 30 days in D status. I don't know what I'm hoping for in terms of delivery. If it doesn't come in before summer is over I will be disappointed.

Ordered my M/T Rubi on 5/13
Got VIN last week but not sure how long it had been assigned when I asked
Been in D status since at least 5/29 but maybe longer
My dealer is thinking It should arrive late June, but no commitment from FCA on that yet

Lets hear everyone who ordered a MT sound off. When did you order and what status are you in? Has anyone passed D status? I asked Jeep Cares if my order was not progressing past D because of the manual transmission and their response was there were no delays associated with my order.

I Ordered on 4/26 and have been in D status for over 3 weeks.
Ordered placed 05/01 status NONE
