Default D Status - High Hopes too High?

When you call the DC 800 number for order status and the representative says: "Sir, your vechile is in "D" status and they're currently reviewing the paper work and preparing to build your vehicle." Sould I be sweeping out the garage stall and prepare to take a day off work soon -- say within the next few weeks? Or have I set my expectations too high? With recent Jeep Rubicon 2 door orders, what has been the typical wait for some of you? And how often do you call the 800 number?

Could be days from D to D1, could be weeks, so don't get "too" excited yet.

That said, you have progressed, and your Jeep will be to you probably within a month or so...depending on how far you are from Toledo and the shipping time factor.

2DR Rubicon
Auto
Hard Top
Power Convenience Group
No MyGIG

I ordered around March 27. I dont have the exact dates in front of me, but it stayed in D status for about a week, and then went to D1, where it stayed for a few more days. It was built last friday, and is KZM (on a rail car) today. I don't know if you should clear your calendar, but mine was vuilt in just under two weeks from moving to D status. Depending on location, delivery seems to take between 1 and 3 weeks.

I call the number every day, because I am bored.

Default Good luck!

With the way things are going right now - it could be anyone's guess.

Personal experience -
D status January 2 - D1 status late February - Received March 26

Worst thing is I kept getting conflicting info from the DC #s and the dealership.
