No worries - I did get mine, picked it up at the end of March. I love it, totally worth the wait. I think i have a minor 'toe-out' issue, but nothing alarming at all. Loving every second of driving it, just over 500 miles on the odometer now. Here is a pic I took the day after I brought it home.

There are more pics back on page 85 of this thread, it just wouldn't let me easily copy and paste the links.

How did you figure this out? I was actually able to see my status as D1 and it even had my VIN number buried in there. Before now, all I had was a VON.

I found that link on some grand cherokee forum, tried it for the wrangler and it worked. There is also a way to view and download your window sticker after its built.

ours are exactly on the same schedule. dealer told me April 23 is the date it is estimated to be at dealer. seems like we will get them at the same time. I ordered mine in chattanooga, tn the same time you did in GA. I can't wait.

MortuaR, looking good. I installed a few goodies yesterday. Tuffy under seat security drawer, MOPAR entry guards. Quadratec trailer hitch with wiring, all the factory free-bee grab handles & clothing handles and the front and rear silver Sahara bumper overlays that were brand new take-offs. Tomorrow I am going to install my CHR550 Lockpick and backup camera. Then I will spend Sunday washing and waxing her.

I know that you can go to any jeep dealer website, select a jeep from their inventory, choose "view window sticker", and then in the address bar, you simply replace the VIN you want to see with the one that is already there.

Yep, I've been doing this for years, this comes in especially handy when searching for a new vehicle on cars.com, autrader.com, etc. If the vehicle you're interested in far away just run the VIN to get the exact build specs and MSRP.

I've done this with Jeeps and Fords, I assume it will work for most as long as you use the correct URL from a dealer website or manufacturer website.
