Received this text from the dealer today!!

Should be delivered by Thursday 1/13/2021. I ordered on 10/23/2021 so if all goes to plan I was about 12 weeks from order to delivery

Man, that must be nice 72 hours from yard (if talking at factory) to your dealer. It's been taking 3-4 weeks to get from factory to my dealer. A few days on a train to Memphis, and then sits at a yard there for 2-4 weeks, before making the two hour drive to dealer.

I have a Grand Wagoneer (wife's) and Wrangler JLU (RV's) on trains heading to Memphis as of last week, and the ETA to dealer is 1/20 to 2/4. Hoping my JC hops on a train soon, so I can get in first half of Feb.

Hopefully you get your vehicles soon!

But it was longer than 72 hours lol it’s been sitting in the yard since 12/12/2021. So, it’ll take around 4 weeks to go from factory to my dealer

Mine has been released for shipping for about 2.5 weeks at factory (had a week or more in JB before that), and not released yet. Typically 3-4 weeks after it gets on the train, so unlikely to be 4 weeks for me, probably 6 weeks or so from build to arrival, but maybe I'll get lucky and the Memphis black hole won't be as nasty as normal.

You won’t see a build sheet until your Jeep is fully complete and even then it might take a day or so after to actually populate
Ah, ok. I've seen where it's "supposed" to populate during build process and then the window sticker is when it's fully done. But then I've seen other say what you said. Wasn't sure what is correct.

That's cool, but you're in the forum for the WL74 (2 row). I believe you already posted a similar update in the proper forum for the WL75 (3 row).

JC says: Approved for shipment but not scheduled. Has been shipped to storage until scheduled. Now the waiting really begins! :LOL:
you're going through the normal process. Most of the time is build sheet, then window sticker.
You will be able to see the window sticker in the next few days, depending on when they ship it. It could stay in storage for just a few hours or several days, it depends on how logistics are handled for your city/region.
Ask your dealer if they typically get their units on direct transport or via rail. So you have an idea if its just days or several weeks more

Has anyone here actually received their vehicle yet and have it in person? If so, what was the average timeframe from order to delivery? Any information would help. Thanks!

You guys should do what the Camaro guys did when the 5th gen was first trickling out.
If they lived near an auto rail yard, they drive by and take pictures of the cars if they could see them in the yard.

That sounds like a great use of time!

There's a Facebook group called "Jeep Grand Cherokee L Owners" where several people have posted receiving their 2022 models.
