I can't believe how fast some of you guys are getting built! Order to built in less than a month, some of us sat in d and d1 for 6 weeks or more.

I sit here openly weeping that my delivery day has come and gone with no movement in sight. :mad: However, there was one thing today that kept me from being too bummed. My wife and I were at the boat ramp today, and the truck in front of us dumped his boat in the middle of the boat ramp. We laughed our butts off. Feel guilty laughing at someones stupidity, but it was funny as hell. :lol::lol::lol: The guy didn't seem happy that I took a few pictures.:lol::lol::lol:

"Please be patient as we work to provide you with a new Jeep built to your exact specifications." I'm trying, really I am, but my dealer said "sold customer orders get priority scheduling..." VOTS told me I'd get another email in about a week. Thanks to the JNAP folks for keeping us truly informed. I'm hoping to get it by the end of October as the Willys doesn't have a top and it starts getting a little cool in North Idaho towards the end of October :)

A quick Pic of the boat ramp today. Some guy who just bought a boat, and did not know how to launch. Good thing it happened to him., as he did not have his drain plug in, and would have sunk. Minimal damage - they guy was lucky. The Marina had to hoist it with a fork lift.

I hope after you stopped laughing you showed him how to do it properly... or at least asked him when his next attempt would be so you could have the video camera rolling.

Actually it takes abt 9 hrs start to finish, and yours was finished shortly after lunch yesterday, I assume, bc I went over on last break (2:30p) and saw it.

Figured it'd be close to the end somewhere on final, but when I couldn't find it I looked over in by where Shannon's was, and there she sat.

Just curious, does anyone know if they ever update the estimated delivery date? MIne is 9/12 and they clearly won't make that since its still at D1.

So hoping mine is one of them, and that it will be at the dealer in 9 days. Still have estimated delivery date of yesterday.

I've studied the MOTS data on delivered vehicles. Vehicles headed for a particular US region typically travel by train, then truck. These trains appear to have a schedule. The train to Nashville leaves on Sundays and Thursdays but may leave a day later.

I hope mine makes the Sunday train as scheduled. That makes my Sat 9/14 delivery possible. :)

Question regarding ordering / tracking - I'm ordering a Diesel Summit and my dealer says they actually have two already on order from first allocation and I can have one of those, which should shorten the wait compared to entering a brand new order now. My questions are:

- Is there a way for the dealer to update the order with my information so I can start receiving updates through VOTS?

- How can I verify the dealer's information about the status of the build? They told me a week ago or so that it was in D1 but I would like to double check the status myself.

Wahoo! I went from another day of boring old D1, to inspection. But I wouldn't know this if I was just using the VOTS. Thanks to Milous, and the band of helpers, Willx, Marlon, Chevy, and anyone else I forgot. Chrysler should pay you guys for making this process more fun than it would be otherwise. In fact, my brother-in-law is a social media expert / marketing consultant for Ernst&Young. Maybe I should mention what you guys do. Enthusiasts seem to love it on both ends, and it makes the process a lot more fun as a consumer.

In any case, thanks for all you do. It's been fun for me so far...

Congrats to those that have moved on today.

Still, we must not forget the ones that have waited the longest.

These four have waited the longest for their CRD's. They did everything they could; they ordered the first or second day possible; they paid their way to support jeepgarage.org. But alas, they still have not received the coveted "D1" status and most importantly the MOTS' estimated delivery date.

They are(if anyone didn't know):

kaziii - Summit CRD (SPECIAL MENTION because this one isn't even prerelease)
Matt'sGC - Limited CRD
UnsungChip - Limited CRD
and now added to the CRD left behind'ers list: JustinB60 - Limited CRD
(After all he did order the next day and all the others that ordered on 8/10 have moved on.)
