It was in April. Can't remember the exact date.

depends on the yeaer and days of inventory they have.. my 2013 was made in june of 2013, typically they stop accepting orders in the mid may timeframe and just run out backlog from that point on...

ive seen new model year hit dealership floors here in ohio (close to jeep plant) as early as late august / early sept..

I just placed my order last week so I am nervous. Dealer did call today and gave me VIN and tentative ship date so I feel a little better.

No '15 but all this talk of the '16s and last production day makes me nervous that something will delay my jeep.

I found this from somewhere. Thanks to whoever found it. I'm not sure about its credibility though

Great find! Thanks, but I am hoping the dates are off by a bit and my order doesn't somehow get hung up in the switch over.
