I am trying to order a 2012 Rubicon 2dr in sahara tan, I want a black hardtop, but the dealer says it won't let him select that option that it has to be a body color hard top. Anybody have this problem?

No, I didn't select the body color fender flares. The option of the black top shows up, but it won't let him select it. Is it maybe just because I picked the sahara tan?????

Guess I just need to be patient. I didn't hit D1 until 7/13 and the status hasn't changed since. I just have: Future - VASC on 8/7 so I hope that means, I will have it by this time next month.

Tow vs. Max tow
I apologize if this was already covered, but I've been following pretty closely, and haven't seen a certain answer...
What is the difference between max tow and trailer tow package? It appears you can get both (with unlimited sport and sahara), and if you get the trailer tow, it comes with the sway damping. Taken from page 1, it appears if you order the max tow, you get the 3.73 axles. BUT, if you look at the fleet guide that's been posted on here, it not only doesn't talk about max tow (that I saw), it says the 3.73's come with trailer tow package only.
What's the deal? What should I order with my unlimited sport? If I went with unlimited rubicon, can I not get the sway damping? Sorry for any ignorance.

Has anyone been charged and additional fee for certain colors (I know some of the 2011 colors cost an extra $250ish) or does anyone know if that will happen at some point? Getting ready to order soon and I'm just trying to calculate the final price (1% below invoice) before I go to the dealer.
Thanks,
