Might Have To Jump Ship From Bronco To Jeep

[AzScorpion]

i was going to ask what was special about the blue accents. looked really nice to be honest

They do look nice, it sets it apart from the regular Wranglers. It looks like those 4xe's are taking a little longer for production too. Most likely more parts that are constraints on them.

SPOILER ALERT

They're having trouble with the bonding and layer separation after installation ... seems the 85 degree tolerance was not Celsius afterall ...

We're talking about the Jeep not the Bronco. ?

Look up, that's what they call overhead...

meaning, it's a joke son, a play on Bronco problems in a jeep world...I say ...

There are a few guys on the gladiator forum who have gotten their MY22s 6 weeks from order time. These have just been mojaves and rubicons so far. My sport is yet to enter production but I'm thinking it wont be long! I wasn't sweating things until others started getting theirs and now I'm like a crazed lunatic on crypto and JC trying to get updates.

for you Bronco guys that are curious how Ford is handling the reservation system for the lightning, here is a summary from the F150 forum. I probably have a better chance of getting an electric ranger before my reservation is filled. Will see if the launch is better than the Bronco, but it couldn't be worse.

At this stage I wouldn't trust anything that Ford says. They originally said.

"All customer orders will be filled before dealer stock"... Lie

"Your oder is based on your timestamp and will be filled in that order".... Lie

Hopefully they don't pull this on yours and change to an allocation system. If your order is with a large dealership you'll have a better chance of getting it. Good luck!

Here's todays Jeep Chat. Production starts on Thursday and looks like it could be one of the first ones built later this week. ?

Me (12/13/2021, 1:14:21 PM): Could I get a status update on my build?

Alexander (12/13/2021, 1:16:26 PM): Thank you for your patience here. Your vehicle is about to enter assembly! All parts are gathered. Congratulations! We lack an ETA at this time but please keep in touch with us for the very latest. I am glad I was able to get that update to you, remember, we are available 24/7 for you. Can I assist with anything else for now?

it sounds like someone wanders around a warehouse with a shopping cart gathering parts like its grocery day at Walmart...LOL

"Today class, we are going to learn about center of gravity..."

Mine is built! Just sitting around waiting for rail assignment to GA now. I have read that there is a large backlog of orders signed off on and ready to ship but the driver shortage is causing some issues.

Congrats on finally getting it built. That's my fear is it'll be built this week and sit for weeks waiting for delivery. I'm guessing mine would go transport from OH-IA and not rail? Oh well it's better than waiting years for my Bronco. ?

Thanks! It took right at 2 months. I'm sure it'll be a few weeks long wait for transport but I'm alright with that. I'm sure yours will be pretty quick! A few guys on gladiator forums got theirs in 3 weeks from order to at the dealer so it's definitely happening at the Jeep factory right now.

Finally got a good update today from Jeep Chat. I probably still won't see it until late January or early February but at least it's in production in under 2 months from my order date! ?

Me (12/21/2021, 1:03:00 PM): Hi Michael can I get an update on my order

Michael (12/21/2021, 1:08:57 PM): I am showing your vehicle is currently in the Paint portion of the build process.

Me (12/21/2021), 1:09:11 PM): OMG that's great, I think I just wet my pants!!!

Congratulations on moving yet one step closer!
I'd probably have wet my pants too..
