Well the JKU should be here early next week. I just sent out some applications for auto loans now.

Definitely didn't help the waiting process by ordering a bunch of stuff from Northridge.

To the people that got the 3rd email, how long did you wait after that? I know it is all over the place...just looking for some info since my salesman hasn't called me back with any!

It depends on how far you live from the factory. Average is a week and a half to two weeks.

Ordered: 3/8/2012
1st Email: 3/12/2012
2nd Email: 3/22/2012
3rd Email: 4/2/2012
Delivery Scheduled for 4/5/2012
Arrived at Dealer: 4/11/2012
Took delivery: 4/14/2012


On the way to the dealer I started to feel a tad bit of buyers remorse, as this is the first new vehicle I've ever purchased and the most I've ever spent on a vehicle. Thoughts like "why didn't you just buy a used truck for 15K", "the truck you have (1999 4Runner with 235k) works just fine", and "you should have waited until the 2012's started to hit the used market", started creeping in my mind.

I can say that by the time I'd finished the 40 mile journey from the dealer to my house, any doubt I had about my purchase had completely melted away. This Jeep is an absolute joy to drive. I could not be happier with my decision, and cannot wait to get her out on the trails.

Well at this point it seems that I'm just adding to my post count. I've been relatively patient the last 7 weeks, however these last few days are much harder on my ability to continue waiting patiently. I'm getting way to eager now and weather is getting very nice, plus my current vehicle is dragging these days. Should be this Tuesday or Wednesday (maybe) and I've already got approved at a great interest rate for the loan.

Maybe I'll get it in time to enter the Truck-Lite LED headlight giveaway.
