I ordered my 22 Overland on 3/6. I was in D status for a month. Now in D1 status for 2 weeks. Just curious how long other peoples builds took?

That’s how I think mine will go. I didn’t get fully loaded, but close to it.I ordered my gladiator January 1 and arrive almost exactly 3 months later at the dealership. It was fully loaded with bells and whistles though so that might be why it took a while.
Totally worth the wait to get exactly what you want! I actually appreciated the long wait toward the end because it let me think things through carefully and eliminate some bad ideas I was stuck on about aftermarket mods.That’s how I think mine will go. I didn’t get fully loaded, but close to it.
Other posters have mentioned that Gobi doesn't start spraying until early May.Mid October 21 order was in my driveway by mid December. Mid March 22 order still doesn't have a build sheet. Rumors they haven't started spraying gobi yet so that is probably affecting my second one.
How do I contact Jeep chat?I ordered my JTM on 2/14. It was issued a VIN and was built in less than a week. I honestly didn't expect it till early April here in NW Wisconsin. Contacted Jeep Chat on 3/11 and they showed in shipping stage with expected arrival window from 3/29-4/18.
The next day my dealer contacted me that it was on the lot! A total of 30 days from order to arrival. Maybe I just got lucky, but my sales rep told me that mine was shipped on a transport owned by an independent driver that they have a reliable relationship with. I was also told it was railed (train) from Toledo to a Chicago yard, loaded onto truck and on its way here without waiting in "storage limbo".
Picked it up from the dealer on 3/15.
Its funny you say that about the bad ideas. That’s exactly what I’m going through. At first I was thinking about all the things I wanted to do. Lift, tires, bumpers etc.. I thought I had all the money in the world. Reality sets in as you have more time to think about it. It will be a long work in progress for me. Fun though!Tot

I heard there were a few things holding up production like spray in bed liners & slush mats.Mid October 21 order was in my driveway by mid December. Mid March 22 order still doesn't have a build sheet. Rumors they haven't started spraying gobi yet so that is probably affecting my second one.

Mine got both the bed liner and slush mats...I heard there were a few things holding up production like spray in bed liners & slush mats.

There is no build sheet until it’s built and ready for final inspection. At least that’s how mine was...Mid October 21 order was in my driveway by mid December.

That's odd - when mine was ordered in October 2019 there was a build sheet before it was done, the window sticker was the last thing, and was an indication it was done.There is no build sheet until it’s built and ready for final inspection. At least that’s how mine was...
