Curious to see if there are any saddle interiors out there yet. The race is on to see who will be the first. Whats your guess as to when the first will surface ?

I was just at the dealer and he tried to order the car. The nav was the only thing holding it up.
I thought the saddle issue was resolved? no?

I use navigation for my job on a daily basis and the voice control would be a MAJOR help.

From everything I have read on this forum lately, saddle can no longer be ordered. Who knows when that will change. Get the car that came in, and change the radios when the new one is available later. That is what I would do.....

That is correct saddle is done with on the overland it cannot be ordered. No clue if and when it will again be available for the overland. I have a feeling it will be available again but no telling when. Months, 2012 models , who knows. I didnt want an early built 2011 and I wanted to special order mine right from the manufacturer so I ordered beige interior. Love that to!

It means that those of us that got the saddle order built, will have limited edition vehicles with higher resale value in the future!

I was sold hard on the Saddle but after seeing it in person and finding out it couldn't be ordered 2 weeks ago I "settled" for the Mineral/Black combo since I MUST have a vehicle my late March. The more pictures I see of it the less I like it. What that means is I would have loved it initially but grown tired of it real fast. I'm glad Jeep put a hold on it, saved me money and prevented a mistake.

In a way I sort of agree with you. At first I was soooo set on saddle and same thing after it was no longer available and I looked more into other interiors the saddle grew old to me. Who knows that may have just been my mind telling me be happy with what you ordered (light beige), but now im really happy I did. As beautiful as saddle is im glad I got a somewhat more traditional colored interior and I cant get over how amazing the light tan, wood, and dark brown upper dash colors go together.
And just as you said it was cheaper and available. I guess its a win win situation.
Saddle still is beautiful and would have been nice if its was readily available to order, but hey it is what it is. Im super happy and soo looking forward to taking delivery of my new dark charcoal/light beige Overland.

Tired of waiting on the saddle, I had another dealer on Christmas Eve track down an identical version (minus the saddle) of the Overland I had ordered. The 4x4 hemis are really hard to come by around here, so they shipped one down to Arkansas from Kansas for me. It has the black interior, and with each day that passes I'm becoming more and more glad that I bailed on the saddle. The charcoal/black combo is awesome.

I did the same thing but went from an order of Charcoal Black/Saddle to Mineral Grey/Black. I am super happy I didnt wait and picked up what I did!

My rental has the black interior. At first I liked it. Now it looks too monotonous. I hope I like the saddle once I see it in person. Interior color preferences are obviously a matter of personal taste.

I caught hell all night from my wife while at dinner with friends...until they came out to see my new wheels when we left. The other wife sat in the cockpit and I am almost positive I heard a soft moan escape her lips as the sensuous new car smell filled her aquiline flared nostrils and her French-manicured hands clutched the beefy wood wheel (pre-warmed by remote start, natch). It was animalistic and borderline scandalous.

I got no argument from my spousal unit when I asked her to drive us home.

I have waited 80 days to get saddle/black, mineral gray and must drive 75 miles to pickup from dealer today (10:30am) Salesman told me that the dealer owner's wife was in yesterday and saw my car. She wanted it and said it was the most beautiful color combination she had ever seen. First saddle that the dealer has received. I'll post some photos if I can figure out how to do it. I'm a computer retard who grew up in the 60's, before calculators & copiers. I've got an 06 Rubicon (last year of the true Wranglers) lifted, 4.5 in, etc and can't wait to see how this new Jeep performs.

car was ordered 12/17/2010, been in D1, est ship is 1/24/2011. prod was stopped though for all "non summit" orders that were with new saddle unless it was already built and "in transit" (the old "Overland" 25p package), new saddle is now only avail in a "Summit" with only four choices of ext color, (another setback delay too for people who did not originally order a summit in one of the three colors that were avail up until the recent 4th color was added). As of the end of last week they have also temporarly stopped taking new factory orders not in "D1" status for summit's, and as everyone knows the "new saddle " is in very limited supply, (and the front dash and upper door window panel of the Summit are now full "new saddle" no black dash on Summit's hence the expensive but beautiful "overland summit" which raised the price $4500 over similarly ordered "overland" w/new saddle/black int if you ordered the car before early december! Calculated they were! also the 730n is not standard now on any vehicle, even the Summit. this has chaned from 430n to 730n back to 430n, its gonna be a crap shoot for already orderd cars, in other words if the 730 was in your car that has already been built you might have the 730n! so there u go boys. (btw i know the gm at my dealer and i was luckey to get what i got, there are none to be had) Good Luck! :eek:
