That's a new one. And he didn't "Thank you for you patience as we launch this exciting new product". Maybe because you didn't specifically complain about a delay.
Now if only I could get a response out of the dealer.

Yeah... wonder what the updates are? Sounds like they're saying there's a problem with the order on the dealer's side. You'd think that's the sort of thing someone would have mentioned to you.

Spoke to the dealer and now I am back to C status. They are looking into it but, without a miracle, I am out by the end of the week.

Sorry to hear the C thing. Given the looking into it, I'm assuming no one at the dealer knows why?

I just don't get it. How can you have to inquire to find out there's a problem you have to go back to your dealer about on an order placed almost 3 months ago?

Welp. It’s hard to believe - or is it. Almost exactly 20 weeks to the day my M/T shows up to the dealership - THE DAY I LEAVE FOR A 12 DAY VACATION!!! Sombitch!! I’ll try and link the video the dealership sent me - they are installing the 2” Mopar lift and Nitto 35x11.50R17 tires and I’ll have to pick it up when I get back

Here it is...honestly the process was miserable start to finish. The dealership tried to rape me on my trade and I left and sold my truck to Carmax. I don’t think they expected me to come back. But they honored Tread Lightly and I did well on interest rate. New bumper going on tomorrow and maybe the winch. Wheels and tires I hope Thursday still.

I understand everyones frustration. If your in 8 to 12 weeks I think its fair. I wish it was quicker. I did a month in d 2 weeks d1 2 weeks jb. all on the longer end of normal but by no means the extreme some see. I am in kz now. I ordered june 17th. I was hoping for some summer top down driving but im gonna miss out on a lot of that. It makes sense to build as many cars as possible and use the parts u got but after 2 months then jeep needs to prioritize getting those custom builds done. Those who ordered in april should have at least a month of driving by now. also of you ordered a manual and really want a manual hang in there. If your just angry switching to a auto proves nothing jeep still gets a sale.

Beautiful truck, first one I've seen delivered (kinda) with a body colored top and fenders since I started following this thread.

Yea, I have posts back on page 15. There are a few of us that have been waiting forever, some bailed - some hung on....I may regret the body colored fenders but it’s a Jeep - really like the matching top.

its not that i bailed necessarily, when i was told i may have to wait another 10-12 weeks after waiting 12 weeks already there just was no way i was going to go through that again. I refer to the run around and nonsense more than anything

I would've liked the color matched hard top but it wasn't worth the cost. I didn't get the color matched fenders because the rear ones will definitely get ate up from the road and off road and look like shit in a few years. Doesn't make any sense to get the flares color matched to me

That looks GREAT, man. Wow. One question: What does Off-Road+ do with a manual transmission? I thought it was auto-only.

So much to learn...
