23G, which is not built out, is a manual trans.
Of course if you are already in D status then this info does not apply. This is for people BA through BX status (including BG).

The waiting list
I ordered my Jeep on Sept. 30...since then I just wander the house, blood shot eyes, mumbling to myself...my tattered Jeep catalog in one hand, the entire print-out of Jeff's report on vehicle status in the other...
Seriously though, I would also like to thank Jeff for all of the information he has provided. I actually did print it all out so that I could have it as a reference. Congratulations to those of you who are finally taking delivery of your Jeeps.
I've called the hot-line 3 times hoping for a change in status, but its still 'BG'. I had pre-arranged my financing, however it was only good for 45 days, it expired today. Now I will have to completely re-apply. I know that nothing should have changed and it shouldn't be a problem...but until I'm issued a new blank check I'll be a bit nervous. :sad:
I just hope that when they finally decide to turn on the machine that builds the Unlimited Rubicon's mine will not be too far down the line.

Edit - Well miracles do happen. As I was typing this my wife was sending me a chat message letting me know they approved us for a new loan, and they actually increased the amount by $2,000. At least I can relax about that part now.

“Sched. Out November” means that if you have any of the above ordered then your dealer will not even have a possible allocation of your vehicle until the December allocation is issued. That means that the next possible build date you will have is for December Build. December build should start in the last quarter of November.
Chrysler does not give priority to sold orders other than building them first for a dealer. They do not get put ahead of other dealers orders. Some might think this is not fair, but it is. Each dealer gets a certain amount of allocation based on previous sales. This gives each dealer the appropriate amount of vehicles based on sales history.
If the factory did just build any sold order ahead of other for-stock units, what would stop me from just putting a bunch of names on every order and then getting a ton of Wranglers built why every other dealer just had to wait? That is why each dealer is allocated a certain amount, and that allocation covers sold orders as well.
It is very important to discuss this with the dealer when ordering a vehicle. Asking questions about their allocation in past months, what they expect their allocation to be, and how many other sold orders are in their pipeline are very important.
A little bit more on allocation:
Allocation comes out on each Monday 4 times a month. So if there is 5 weeks then the 5th week is skipped. Allocation is issued by quarter for the following month of build dates. So allocation that I receive this coming Monday (October 23rd) will be for the 4th quarter build dates of November.
We get allocation for both 2 door Wranglers and 4 Door Wranglers. Last week I received an allocation for 2 of the 4-door and 5 of the 2-door. That means that I was able to get 2 of the Unlimited’s scheduled based on the regulations listed above. The mix can very week to week for many reasons.
Allocation priority is given to sold orders for each dealership and will usually get built quicker, but they will not be placed in a priority position above any other dealership.

I am in BG status currently. Could I get a call as early as next Monday (when the new December allocations come out) that would put me in "D" status for a December build? Or am I looking at sitting in BG until December?
