2012 Ordered
Hey everyone
I'm new to the site and to Jeeps. Just wanted to say hi from Regina. I'm currently driving a rusty under powered Tracker, figured I would finally do what every Tracker owner dreams of and order a Jeep. I've got a 2012 Rubicon Unlimited on order, just wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark figure when I might see it. Ordered Jan. 25, 12 I know it's in D status now, as I spoke with the dealer 2 days ago. Any info would be appreciated. I don't want to harass the dealer every day with my impatience. Is there anywhere to wheel in Saskatchewan? Any good $ wheel shops in Regina that anyone knows of? Thanks |
Re: 2012 Ordered
I ordered mine in Late November and received it 8 weeks later. I don't know if the backlog has cleared up a little or not since then, though.

Re: 2012 Ordered
I don't want to wait 8 weeks, but I think that's tolerable.
I was told 6-10 weeks when I ordered it, so it fits right in there I guess. But I would love if they called me today and told me it was there! |
Re: 2012 Ordered
Ordered one yesterday and they told me 60-90 days. Who knows? I guess it will get here when it gets here.

Re: 2012 Ordered
Hey, from personal experience, I ordered mine Oct 17th, 2011 and 125 days later I picked it up at the dealer, Feb 15th, 2012.
Expect 90-120+ days for delivery! I say 120+ cause my dealer told me 90-100days but it took longer. I also think it depends on other variables too, like parts, the amount Canadian orders waiting. I was told by a dealer in Ottawa that they put through Canadian orders at certain timeframes and Jan/Feb was the next run of orders followed by April. Hope you don't have to wait as long as I did but trust me it's worth the wait... |
Re: 2012 Ordered
I ordered mine 2/11/2012 and was told 8 weeks. 1 week down and 7 more to go. :biggrin:

Re: 2012 Ordered
Ordered my Gecko JK yesterday. Did not even dare asking when it will arrive. As long as I get it late spring I'm happy.

I would love to see a picture of your Gecko. I think I might like it, but I was afraid to make such a bold change for my self.

Re: 2012 Ordered
Will post pictures for sure when it gets here ... which might not be for a while. Haven't seen the colour in person, guess nobody did so far, but love the electric lime green TJ's so I went for it.

Re: 2012 Ordered
I ordered my wrangler Unlimited on Feb 13th, not even showing in the system yet and was told yesterday that there is a backlog on the Wranglers and I should see it at my dealer in June. So about 16 weeks.

Re: 2012 Ordered
How do you check your current status? I don't seem to have any numbers to even try.

But it's quick for him to check, he says he doesn't mind. As far as I know there isn't a system in place like in the states that is self service but if anyone knows differently please let me know. Since there is no place to check on your own, having the VON or VIN is kind of pointless. But your dealer can provide that to you. Happy Waiting :smile: |
Re: 2012 Ordered
Once you have the VON or VIN - you can call 1-800-992-1997 and work your way through and the jeep rep will gladly look up status for you.

Re: 2012 Ordered
OMG - I thought I would present myself at the dealer and get the Jeep within 2 weeks!!! I rather go fast before the summer arrives... I will let you know guys how long it will take in MTL. Going shopping this week for a 4dr Unlimited :)
|
Re: 2012 Ordered
Wow, I guess Jeeps are popular this year. Glad I got mine when I did, but it was a 4 month wait. Worth it though, I have 2100kms on it now ( avg 20-21MPG) and all I can say is " Awesome"! Best vehicle I have had to date.
Have you guys asked the dealer to do a vehicle search to see if any other dealer has what you want? |

Re: 2012 Ordered
Ordered my Gecko JK Sahara on February 28th. No idea how long it will take. Dealer promised to track it and let me know.

But I would LOVE to see pics of your Gecko!!! ... it seems I am having issues inserting pictures. Will try a different venue. |

Re: 2012 Ordered
Okay. So 8-10 weeks before delivery :( - south shore of Montreal -
There was a Arctic Edition available at the dealer close to home, my wife is going crazy with it!!!! It's true that it looks great, especially color Winter Chill - pale blue - but I would almost feel bad going down the trail and scratch the shiny fenders and hard top. lol On top of that, it is 5k more on the final bill. Since we are willing to pay that much for the Jeep, we decided to go with the Rubi. We both like the aggressive look and contrast given by the black fenders on it - looks more like a mud toy than a luxury off roader - personal opinion here - My wife will decide the color and we go back to order.... Good night! |

Silly question from a newbie- as I am factory ordering a Wrangler Sahara Unlimited, would I be able to order black fenders instead of the body colored ones? That would look so much cooler with the Gecko Pearl colour! |
Re: 2012 Ordered
Just thought I would mention that Chrysler has added another cash incentive.
For Saskatchewan there is the $2000 consumer cash, and now an additional $1000 bonus cash. Whoo Hoo! free money! |

Do you think this additional bonus cash would apply to orders placed in February? Back then only the $2000 was offered, and my dealer is reluctant to give me the additional bonus cash.

I'm pretty sure it does. Well it better!
When I ordered my Jeep there was no incentives, but I was told that any incentives that come along until the day I pick it up would apply to me. I also emailed my dealer the other day, but his response was not as clear as I hoped. He had said "You will get whatever rebates are for the month your Jeep comes in." If somehow I don't get the biggest rebate there was the whole time I have been waiting I will seriously flip out. But I'm not really worried all that much. |

If somehow I don't get the biggest rebate there was the whole time I have been waiting I will seriously flip out. But I'm not really worried all that much. That's very close with what I experienced with my dealer. He said that I won't loose the rebates that were offered when the order was placed, but will get any additional rebates offered at the time of pick-up. When I asked about the additional $1000 he said he's not sure if it applies to the quote I got?!? I have to admit I got a very good price, so I kinda understand if he is trying to increase his profit, but not happy about it. Will see when the time comes. |
Re: 2012 Ordered
The incentives are from Chrysler, so really they shouldn't affect anything. But if there is no incentives at the time of pick up that would be unfair. I think the only fair thing is to give both. Besides who's to say Chrysler or the dealership wouldn't just hold off until there are no incentives to actually ship the Jeep.
It would be horrible business practices, and I like to think that they would not do such a thing, but it would leave that situation open to happen. |
Re: 2012 Ordered
I am getting the incentives available at the time of the order. They are on the initial bill of sale. However if there are any additional rebates I am afraid the dealership can easily pocket those as additional profit. Not sure if all the rebates need to show up on the final bill of sale.
|
Re: 2012 Ordered
Used to sell autos. You will pay the price on the bill of sale. Don't let them con you into believing anything else. Bill of sale trumps all !!!!!!!!!!!
|
Re: 2012 Ordered
$2000 in place was in place when I ordered. Dealer sales manager told me if they increase I get the increased amount. If they decrease I am price protected at the deal we made at time of order. He specifically said if they increase another grand I get it. They are also not concerned about the km I put on my trade.

Re: 2012 Ordered
Hope you have all this on the bill of sale. Good luck
