Had D1 status for 18 days now with an estimated ship date of 7/13 (tomorrow). As of this morning FCA chat told me it had not been built yet but if I would get back with them on Monday they “should” have an updated status for me. It was like they knew something but wouldn’t come out and say it. I check in a couple of times a week and they’ve never said anything like that to me. A good indicator or false hope? I’m exactly 2 months in on this ride, when my dealer said it would be 4-6 weeks the day that I ordered. I don’t mind waiting if I had accurate information from anyone really. It’s hard to be patient when you keep being told fake news!

This is everyone's sentiment. I spent 45 days in D status after being told max of 30. Escalated the case never heard back. I then went to D1 with a build date of 7/10, now I haven't heard anything and it hasn't gone into production. I don't care about waiting just tell us what the hell is going on.

Yes, Rubicon, steel bumper, front cam, color matching hardtop, bed liner, and other options.
One step closer!

Exactly. I appreciate delay if it's to preserve quality, just show us some respect by giving best estimate even if it must ultimately be revised. Like others have noted, I've even had chat abruptly terminated without asking if i have any more questions (though i'm polite and brief so there was no reason to end the chat like that--quite rude).

BTW i am now on Day 61 of D status (77 days since i ordered white JT Rubi stickshift).

a couple of weeks ago it was looking like progress on manuals was happening no nothing again just long waits with no answers.

There's a MT overland on FB. First one that I've seen. One step closer to seeing a Rubicon MT, hopefully.
