Opinions? Bigger discount? I don't mind buying from stock, but I want a fairly loaded Sport S but without the Blind Spot and Cruise Control nannies. I seriously doubt I'll find that in the color I want.

Just based on the area around me (central Florida) I would say you may have a hard time finding what you want in stock. And if you get close it will probably be at one of the dealers that are not willing to deal. I am not saying that it can't be done but I would believe that for the best opportunity to get what you want at the price you want you will have to order from one of the dealers that are doing the best deals.
I just don't think there is good enough dealer inventory yet. Of course I am sure that could vary based on where you are.

I don't mind one bit to order. That would actually be my preference.

Are discounts higher / lower / no different, on ordered JTs than on in-stock models (to date)?

Depends on the dealer. A custom order doesn't count against their allotment, and seems most dealers are pricing customer orders better than on the lot allotments. But if a dealer really wants to move something on the lot (which probably isn't the case with JTs right now), you may be able to negotiate a better deal.

Order from one of the many preferred dealers listed on this forum and save thousands while getting exactly what you want. Buying off the lot is for the impulse crowd or folks that like to hardball.

I ordered. I got exactly what I wanted and didn't pay for options I didn't want.

Not counting color, when I check dealer inventory I am getting at best 21 of 26 matches for equipment. I really don't want leather and i have yet to see a rubicon on a dealer lot without it.

I would order. I see you are from Kentucky. There is a dealer on here from Kentucky who is offering well below invoice. His name is David. You can PM me and I will send you his contact information.

I ordered mine because the dealerships around here have no clue how to build their inventory the way people want. For example, my closest dealership has a Sport S on the lot right now with a $48k sticker. Forty Eight Thousand Dollars. But it doesn't even have the Max Towing package, or a hard top, or cargo management group, or..

Sigh.

So, I just said screw it and ordered mine exactly the way I wanted. Since we're in KY, shipping only takes about 5 days. They built my truck in 3 weeks from order to finished.

Order it then suffer like the rest of us waiting. Misery loves company.
To get what you want exactly you will have to order.
