Default when can I order a 2008 Wrangler?

I check a dealer a few months ago and he said June is when I can place an order for a 2008. I think there is still 40,000 unit backorder... and that would mean there are not too many slots left for 2007 Wranglers.

If there is a back order.... does that mean DCR will open up 2008 ordering early?
Or will there be a waiting list from when 2007 is full until 2008 opens up.


I

Current rig ='97 150K
next rig =08 or 09 loaded Rubicon unlimited minus mygig

They should skip 2008's altogether, then in june start taking orders for 2009's. This way they can catch up on the 07's.............

quick math on 40,000 backlog and production of 600 a day yields about 666 days until they catch up.

Man, that makes me glad I just found my jeep. I got tired of waiting on my order and took matters into my own hands. Found a Rubi at another city dealership.
