Just got email from Jeep today with first-ever build estimate--expected to start build slightly over 3 months from when i ordered:

"Our resources indicate your vehicle is estimated to begin production the week of 7/29/19."​

Jeep never sent me an email after my status changed to D1 on 7/15--had to find that out with Chat, but it's interesting to note Chat does not yet have the build estimate--just checked with Chat and they tell me still in scheduling.

did you not have painted wheel flair's or hard top? looking at your picture it does not appear so, mine is not painted wheel flairs or top and i wonder if that is the hold up

Received an email!
Move to D1 status 7/22 with a build date of 8/5/2018

Ordered 4/30 .. oh well at least I have a date now.

I got the same email and date from Jeff. I wonder how long after since we’ve been waiting forever.

very close to my build, but I'm still in D1...thought I ordered on 4/22 but Jeep chat said today they show the order placed on 5/20...guess this would explain the two VINs I received.

About to purchase an Overland with a 6 Speed and Trailer Tow Package. I was looking at the Spec Sheet and it says max towing is 4000 lb. I thought that they were 6000 lb (without Max Tow Package). Does anyone have any real-world experience with this?

I was planning on picking this truck up later this week. So, I am surprised and concerned.

Any help, please.

Max tow isn't available with MT

To pass the time (skip to 12:24 for the good stuff):

Is an inference from the emails you guys received that you had 'escalated' cases in the system?

I'm in the No Email Club with you.

Interesting that others have though. I'm with ya, any communication and transparency would be nice.

it reads that way in mine

Ha, roger that. I have not yet reached the blessed 45-day mark, and thus am not afforded such niceties as to be able to escalate (understand that such mocking contempt is stated with the full understanding that many of you have been engaging in toil for far longer).

They're watching me...

Dealer texted the Good and Bad news last night: my Truck arrived! Also, no employee pricing yet...

So, we’re crunching numbers on trade and just how much he’s willing to discount. But, if no agreement is reached, he’ll have a White manual Rubi to sell and I’ll just wait to order Gobi when EP is honored.
