Build sheet showed up today! I'm assuming this means I'm out of JB status? Mine was built over the weekend, and I was told by FCA chat yesterday morning that I was in JB status, then I get the build sheet email today. If this is all accurate, that was very fast. In seeing some other posts, it appears that something has drastically changed and they are pushing out orders much quicker over just the last week. I hope this is all not just more fake news.

My salesman told me my truck shipped Sunday. Jeep chat said I’m in JB status. Who do I trust ? Lol

My wife had a JL built and delivered in the 2nd quarter. It was great to have the ability to check on the build status via jeep chat.
But honestly, I was a bit surprised on how spotty the information that was told us. It basically went from D1 to F to "reach out to the dealer regarding an arrival date." :facepalm:

To kinda quote someone else from the forum. I don’t mind waiting just as long as the information we’re getting is accurate. Getting so many different stories is annoying. Just tell me the truth and I will be happy waiting

Well that may have been proactive on the dealerships part if they had to order any of those accessories for you. But they could have and should have told you that this was why they wanted to see you instead of getting you all worked up and excited at a possibly that your ride might have arrived. Hope you told them not to do a repeat of that.

And our saga continues..... My original "inside" person was blowing smoke, so I have made a few more requests with other contacts. Working for an automation/robotics company 25 mins from the plant, i'm hopeful I can find someone who can give me a straight answer.

Day 28 in D status. They told me i was 28 days but it can take as long as about 30 days. I replied I am pretty close to the 30 day mark will things start to move soon. The response was I know nothing else. So frustrating to see later orders built before me. IDK how the guys who are earlier then me with no truck arent going mad yet.
Trust me, we ARE mad...but just imagine you are a LE order from 4/4 and still waiting on your Gladiator...those guys are probably in straight jackets now.

Max tow on a manual? Or do you just mean tow package? Max tow isn't available with the MT.
