I ordered my black forest green jk rubi on 10/01 and still don't have a VIN yet. The dealer told me I've got half of a VIN as of last week. Half a VIN?!? Seriously? Well, I guess 1/2 a VIN is better than nothing ;-)

Maybe agree on the trade in value ahead of time? also my experience has been to do the loan myself for the best rates ...

Agreed,
I drove my 2007 for a month while waiting for mine. They don't expect you not to drive it, but they don't expect you to drive cross country everyday either.

They only make what dealers order (either for someone specifically or for their stock)... they can't even keep up with that; they don't make them just to have them sit somewhere in hopes someone wants that exact one.

With the new VOTS system it will supposedly tell you when your Jeep is in each stage of production (assy, paint, etc). Dunno how correct it is, but your dealer does that have accurate information about your build too when it happens.

It shouldn't as long as your mileage increase isn't out of the norm like 2000-3000 miles in the month or something.
