Jeep Grand Cherokee L order status updates….

Glad to hear they will honor your price! And welcome to the sunny state of FL lol. If you’re gonna be down here that long you’d probably have better luck ordering a Jeep from my dealership here with the 7% below invoice, then trade it in here too while you are down here. You should have it in hand before you leave in 4 months.
It's been a long 20 months with the shut down of the border since we've been there. LOL, oh ya I thought of that too, but being Canadian, and the exchange (approx. 30%), and the insurance, it's not worth the hassle.....but if someone wants to loan me their L for the 4 months, I won't say no !! I'm a car guy so I would take care of it !!!

I was loaded onto a train just after 11am today. As soon as the train takes off I’ll get my ETA to dealership. FYI I was KZ yesterday, so a 1 day turn around from being done to loaded on a train is pretty damn good. Neither of my JT orders was that quick getting on train in Toledo. The screenshot below is from my dealer. I’m posting it because some say their dealers don’t have the info, but it’s a lie and the below is exactly what they see in their system.

I too got a screenshot of a similar screen from my dealership last Tuesday (12/14).

Thanks for the info! So am I the only one left waiting for a 21?
Our ranks are dwindling. Our '21 finally arrived at the local shipping yard today, but won't be at the dealership until Thursday or Friday. Built 12/01. They won't even provide the giant Christmas bow!

We are almost twinsies. SR V6 bench two tone white/black. We are about as west as you can get, near Seattle. Yeah I told them they better put a bow on it for making us wait until Christmas. He said you bring the bow, we'll put it on. Bah humbug...

Just got back from the dealer. They think it was lost in the shuffle and ordered me a '22. Now we'll just wait and see which one arrives first and go from there. They've already received other orders that had been built after mine, so I don't think it was a train quantity issue. Who knows at this point. Thanks for the tip, I definitely won't waste any more time trying to track it down!
If I were you I would shoot down that 21 if it comes first, it's already devalued considering it's now "a year old" vehicle. Roll with the newer 22. Its also more likely to have any tweaks/refinements that have been made when they re-tooled for the MY 22 builds.

I am hoping that it will be ok since build date was 12/2 and they were already build 22’s and it has my two tone and bench. If they dont offer some nice pricing and a good trade, I will reconsider. I hear what you are saying though! Dont want to get more mikes etc on my trade in

VON is near immediate, VIN has been taking roughly 2 weeks. If they don’t have a VON I would challenge them to prove its ordered by showing a picture from the system that your order is sitting there in C without a VON.

In addition to this, the POC sheet also should say the date and time of when the order was placed in the system.
