Once I get my JTR paid off I hope to park a Hellcat in it. That is my dream anyway.
Nice Gladiator. I'm on Hilo side. I am thinking of ordering one because Kamaaina and Kona Auto mark up their jeeps, Kona more that Kamaaina. Costco also keeps the prices reasonable. Where did you order from and did you get a good deal? I'm not trying to pay Rubicon prices for an OverlandI pre-ordered my Billet Silver JT Gladiator Rubicon Launch Edition online on 04/03/19 when I received the emailed invitation....the next day I got the call from FCA and I told them which dealer I wanted the truck delivered through....the dealer called me a couple of hours later, and I gave them a deposit, and they entered the order with FCA at that time....I got the first update on 05/09/19, when the status changed to "D" (Firm Schedule-Serial Number Is Assigned)....it was good to finally be on the production schedule....the next update was on 06/01/19 when the status changed to "KZ" (Released By Plant And Invoiced)....it was out of production, and ready to ship....at this point, I figured my Gladiator would arrive in Hononlulu in 30 days or so....I live on the Big Island of Hawaii, and it always takes longer for us to receive anything shipped here, due to the ocean and interisland sailing time....on 06/01/19 the dealer advised that it would take 60 days or so before the truck would arrive in Hawaii....he was almost right on target, as it arrived in Honolulu on 08/04/19....after having the dealer install the 2" Mopar Lift Kit, swap the black Launch Edition wheels and Falken Wildpeak tires for silver Jeep wheels that are larger, along with BF Goodrich 35" KM2 Mudder tires, and a few other dealer mods, they put the Gladiator on the interisland barge, and I finally received it on 09/21/19....the full order to arrival cycle was 24 weeks & 4 days (172 days)....but it was worth the wait....its a great truck and I am well pleased with it....and I have the only one like it on our island so far....
