I don't think we will see actual invoice prices until the order/build banks open (especially for all models/options). From the JL forums builds, I'm assuming (relative to MSRP) 95.3% for base vehicle, and 89% for options.
This is my guesstimate for the Launch Edition build. 7% number is at the bottom. Again, based on JL forum, discount vehicles with option, then add destination & dealer fees (which aren't discounted).
Does anyone disagree that this is the Launch Edition build?
I think the only questions are:
Assumptions:
- the LE specs don't specifically mention heated steering wheel (part of cold weather group ADE)
- Both Trailer Tow and Cargo Management include 240A alternator (so some cost savings there)
- Included a $645 Launch Edition difference (wheels, dash, badge) to get to the advertised MSRP
- Invoice pricing is unknown, but based on similar JL builds on the JL forum (95.3% of base vehicle, 89% of options)
- Any discounts under invoice would be applied first, then destination charge added
- Doesn't include taxes/licensing (varies state to state) or any charges associated with getting discounts (i.e. dealer doc fees, tread lightly, etc.)
Same boat with planning to order a LE. Kent's been great with exchanges for the last several months, but seems to have gone radio silent since prices were announced (hasn't responded to a couple of e-mails as well as a phone call). I'm sure he's getting hammered and still doesn't have all the info to respond.
I'm sure. I certainly don't want to be a problem customer but obviously we all are looking for info here. My contact at LHM Sandy told me he's leaving his dealership so I'm starting from scratch with the local people and would much rather just wrap it all up with Kent at this point.
Are you saying Kent Shurtleff at Peterson Dodge Jeep is leaving the dealership... So we all need a new contact? Or do I have the wrong guy or wrong dealership?
Lol, no worries, it makes sense now. People were talking about Kent being on radio silence and i thought you were saying it was because he was leaving. Crisis averted.
The Colorado dealers have been a pain in the ***. I'm up to 16 that I am dealing with and very few have been helpful. Flower Motor in Montrose so far has been the best, without discussing FCA Affiliates she was offering invoice. I sent each dealer a build for a Sport and a build for a Rubicon, and requested order sheets for both once order banks are open and they can give me accurate numbers. They had a call with their business district today and four of the dealers emailed excited to tell me about the Launch Edition on the 4th
. At this point, I feel like that episode of Seinfeld where every doctor in the state has a note in the file not to treat Elaine. I will share with everyone if I have any luck the next few days with a dealer in Colorado.

This is why I am going out of state, not sure emailing all the local dealers is worth my time. Did you contact the Jeep dealer in Ft Collins?The Colorado dealers have been a pain in the ***.
