Don't fret to much about the new dates guys. The system recalculated for the lost day discussed. There is a lot of shipping going on but the arrivals I have seen have mostly been a couple of days early.

Can't guarantee but please remember the delivery estimate is just that, and estimate.

THX!

New to the garage and not looking to step on any toes. Any chance one of you guys that already received your diesel can start a new thread for reviews and driving impressions? It will give one place for those of us waiting or thinking about ordering to find real info. This thread is so long it is tough to wade through it to find specific info. Thanks for all the input, it helped me make my decision.

I just sent a PM to Scott, asking if he can set up a new thread - one above the line - in the area with the ordering info and features and changes. Hoping for a thread for JGC diesel owners, so we have a place to stay connected, and to post info on our new rides. After talking with most of you over the past countless months, I would like to continue to stay connected and share our diesel stories and experiences. This thread has grown to be the third (and is in line to become the second) biggest thread in the garage. Too much info to sift thru in this thread once we take delivery, so I though a new thread for owners would be great. Also, next year, Scott is trying to set up a JGC get together - probably in the KY area. Would be great to meet people and put faces to the names.

I would be in for that get together if I can at all swing my schedule... maybe TN area Smoky Mountains...? Gorgeous countryside... and perhaps a parade of JGC diesels through the Tail of the Dragon?

Just got a PM from Scott, and he is setting up a new thread for the new Diesel owners. I hope to see everyone there when they take delivery.

I'm guessing a lot of people opened their garage page an noticed the thread has moved. Scott has now linked us to a new thread that will always be on the top of the page under sub forums, and this thread is now called 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Ecodiesel 3.0 This will be a great way for all the Ecodiesel owners to stay connected.
If you want to copy and paste, here is the direct link to this forum thread

Charlevoix on the 25th...It matters not where you are. Always thought of myself as a patient person...Not so sure now. Early August was a long time ago. Plus all the time waiting to place an order.

Walt, what dealer did you order through?

I talked with my Bremerton dealer, it looks like everyone that ordered through him is set to be delivered between Nov 11 and 13th.

Congratz to you! Make sure and tell us all your impressions. I am impatiently waiting for that call from the dealer telling me my unicorn has arrived. I told them to let me know when they get it.

Paper Receipt 10/29/2013 09:25 AM EDT VASC - Detroit Axle Yard, MI
Staged For Shipment 10/30/2013 03:45 PM EDT VASC - Detroit Axle Yard, MI

Just wondering how long it can take to move from "Staged for Shipment" and "Plant Departure" for a delivery 200 miles away to Ontario Canada via truck?

I'd be very grateful for any additional information on this.

BTW. I happen to know that a Dealer Stock unit is available at Fairview Chrysler in Burlington, JGC Summit 4x4 CRD, White over Black in case anyone is interested...

Vaughan Chrysler just got a white Overland diesel in day before yesterday.

Ok. My Louisville to Nashville train is now officially taking longer than any other MOTS tracked GC. Its always an 8-10 hour time between departure and arrival and the max layover in Louisville has been 28 hrs. That's 38 hrs. I'm at 50 hrs and still showing "Arrival at Louisville" at Wed noon.

Will says my train had departed. It must have stalled on the tracks or took a detour. Does anyone know how to track a train in the same way UPS or FedEx track packages?

This will drive a logical person mad!

Departed Facility 11/01/2013 12:22 PM EDT Avi - Vls Java Yard, MI
I was curious about this since the MOTS thread shows the last update coming at 6:30am. Then I looked at my update info, and it appears that Milous just forgot to update the last update time.

Mine's on a train too!

Train Departure 11/01/2013 11:06 AM EDT On Railcar - River Rouge, MI
And looks like I'm hitched to Acilate since he's showing the exact same departure info.
