Have so many things i want to do when it gets in. New aftermarket head unit sitting here laughing at me. I want to remove bumper cover and make it a stubby. Build the super cool cargo area cover with the flat floor all around. Drive it. Got a lift in mind as well but don't feel like shelling out the money for the inevitable tire upgrade that would follow. I want to be able to get off all the jeep forums that i lurk on every day living vicariously through others jeeps.
I just want my jeep. Going batty without one.
Hope everyone is enjoying their rides. And for those that have waited and waited I'm sure it is worth it.
Wow - that's rough. I ordered a JKU Rubi, black with leather, navi, and max tow. Put the order in Aug. 26th, hit the lot on Sept. 29th. Figured it was because my order was with such a common color and set of options.

Good luck!

Presenting my 2012...

Too bad I can't pick it up now for a week since I leave for vacation tomorrow morning. This is going to be tough!

You shouldn't count on getting any emails from Chrysler. I didn't get one when my order went to C status, and other people are getting build confirmations a month after they have already picked up their JK. Just make sure you have a VON from your dealer and use that to call and bug Chrysler.


Oh, and Congrats on the order

6 weeks and 6 days from order to delivery. The wait has been agonizing, but well worth it. It had 1 mile on the ODO when I got in it. I got to put miles 2-5 on it. The 3" lift is being installed today, and Baja MTZ 35s to be put on tomorrow! I take back all those thoughts I had about Jeep my patience was challenged during the wait!

VON = vehicle order number ?

Mine finally hit the dealers lot yesterday, exactly 75 days from the date I ordered. She was sitting for one month in final inspection and then for another 10 days on the truck that delivered her the last 35 miles to the dealer I will pick her up Saturday. 9 jeepless weeks will finally come to an end

Yes. Your dealer will have that after he puts the order in. a VIN should follow within a few days usually, unless restrictions or something.

Any benefit in ordering any Mopar accessories, installed, when you order your vehicle? Warranty or pricewise? You don't get the TL, affiliate, or friends and family discount on that, do you? Or they don't for instance only charge you the difference between the factory part and the replacement part, do they (like swapping out the black sidesteps for the chrome ones)?
