Picked mine up last night. It had been in the dealer's onsite 4X4 shop for installing a winch, trailer brake controller, leveling kit and onboard air. Can't wait to get "acquainted" with it.

Did you purchase the winch at the time of placing your order or after the fact through the parts department? Just curious as I didn't see it as an option in the order guide.

Can anyone decipher what is happening here:
Jeep Gladiator Progress of building and delivering the Eco-Diesel 9e9afb06-c830-4420-adda-e87d4cbda3b7


What is "Hold for Diversion"? And why was it set to go to my dealership, and now it's going to Argus?

I bought a Badlands Apex 12,000# from Harbor freight and took it to them. They could only get Warn for $1,900 or a TrailFX that wouldn't fit in the bumper.

My ED Sport S is scheduled for delivery between today and 10/15.. currently on a train somewhere. Ordered on 8/21, built on 9/14 for those who are wondering.
Hello @Gladiator_92 - I stumbled across your post in this thread & tried following your progress. What happened! The build went along fine -- a month later built, then went into the twilight zone of inspection??? My Vehicle is also built - completed on 10.20.2020. But from your posts, sounds like it will take another month to even think about getting it, as you still haven't confirmed receiving your vehicle :/

Not sure what happened and neither is my dealer. Probably logistics issues due to covid getting it from the rail yard to the dealer. It is at the dealer as of this past friday but I am taking delivery tomorrow afternoon since i am getting katzkin seats installed first! Ill add pictures once i pick it up.

Can any of you guys help me confirm a few things on ordering a 3.0L.

Will I still get the limited slip differential in the Willys model diesel or does it void because of the different axles?

Will a Willys come with wide axles?

Will I get the additional off road screens/displays on the 7" stereo with Alpine added? To have trans and oil temp on the stereo.

Will I get the inverter in the back seat or do I need to add the cargo management system to get it?

Thanks

Thank you @Karnaj! That helps us all quite a bit, I’m sure.
I noticed you are in orange county I am in Los Angeles county. And I ordered mine on 9/15 one day off from your order date. And mine appears to be lost in inspection somewhere :/ But it’s nice to know you have yours on the way. Hopefully mine is close as well.
