If one orders a vehicle from factory through an out of state dealer can the dealer have the factory ship the vehicle to the buyer or does it have to go through that dealer?

Yeah, I believe Kent @Peterson was the only exception with 5% below Invoice on the LE, the rest of them honored the TR price of 1% below Invoice... Out here in MD the best I could negotiate for the LE was ~5% below MSRP because not many of the dealers were aware of the LE and when I called around they didn't budge below MSRP...

This is probably the best LE deal out there. Your case must have been unique - what dealership was this from? Congratulations on the great price... My price is around 5% under MSRP with TL.
With TL you should be about 7.2% below invoice and no dealers fees only a $75 admin fee. Anything above this and they are screwing you. They get the hold back for TL pricing so its a win/win.

FFP price is $57870.00. This is the 1% under price from FCA.

This is the most you should pay with TL. Better deals on the forum. Just have to weigh travel etc.

Yeah, but a lot of local dealers are not being that flexible on prices for LE, except for a couple of dealers. tbh after waiting for so long, I don't mind the variance of ~$2k-$3k in the price for not having to drive/fly etc... Although, I wouldn't say anything other than 7.2% below Invoice for the LE is getting screwed... Definitely wouldn't want to pay MSRP but below MSRP is fine for a lot of ppl I would imagine... YMMV :)

I hear you. I thought the same that I’d stay with my local dealer for 1% below rather than go to somewhere else for maybe $2k less plus my expenses so I’m not even saving that much. Now I have my dealer local and a half mile from my house and I’m under invoice. Happy happy. I just can’t see why any dealer wouldn’t honor TL/FFP for the 1% below invoice when they are getting nearly $2k back in a hold back from FCA by honoring that pricing. Just sounds like greed. In the end car buying is whatever the buyer feels is a good price for what they get and don’t feel they left too much on the table.

I agree as for the car buying experience about what price people feel comfortable paying and that's that, can't have buyer's remorse after that. But, the TL pricing confusion comes from an FCA email that my dealer showed about how EP is not available for LE, but they circled back and said they would do 1% off the agreed upon price LOL. So, I am sure it is all some dog and pony show to get the most $$ out of people and when coupled with the lack of knowledge most dealers had on LE they just try to mark it up. For me, I was happy at being at Invoice or 1% below Invoice, esp if I was getting the LE asap :-D

Here is the pricing sheet straight from my dealer. It shows Retail Pricing at $62310. FFP/TL pricing at $57870 and EP at $55660.
They all have the same sheet. It has been said no EP pricing but many are getting. FFP pricing. Just for a frame of reference.

I agree! The red looks especially good with the black soft top. Body colored flares are a must. I originally wanted white, but the red is growing on me. Especially if I have to put up with the racerboi interior accents that come with the Rubi.

Does anyone know if the Rubicon decal still has red outline on a red Jeep? I can't tell from photos.

I’m sure it does you just can’t see it.

Upon further FB stalking, she lives in MIchigan, and her hubby is either a dealer, or plant worker. Explains how they have one so early
Its only Jeep management/executives (internally) who were given a specific build type early purchase option. Reports of March 2019 sales included:

"The new Jeep Gladiator recorded 43 sales last month, all to FCA employees, Gladiators for consumer consumption should start arriving on dealer lots this month."
