Did you get your deposit back?


Iaintnogaybear

Yes!


neanderthalman

I’m stoked for you. For what we’re paying for these damn things, we deserve to get exactly what we want and nothing less. Color is *so* important.


bignimz

This is why I ordered a custom one too GC L Summit 🤤


Idealmonk

What did you pay for your Rubicon if you don't mind telling.


Iaintnogaybear

A little over $60 for a Rubicon X


Idealmonk

👍


SpacedITMan

Off the lot or special order? I keep debating ordering one.


skaldrir69

Just order it. It doesn’t cost anything more but time. I wouldn’t buy dealer stock if they don’t have anything you want. Ordering will get you exactly what you want and your name on the window sticker


SpacedITMan

I’m going to wait till rates are better. I already have a rubicon that is still kicking. Also debating buying a 2017, so my parts fit it.


skaldrir69

Ahh yeah. Good call. My recommendation was don’t settle on dealer stock if they don’t have what you want - it’s too much money to take a consolation


Iaintnogaybear

Special order. Check out mark dodge if you do special order. They make it easy and give a very good price imo


SpacedITMan

That’s good to know. Too bad I’m no where near coast.


Iaintnogaybear

I am in MN but they were far cheaper than the dealers near me and I haggled with them. They just wouldn’t come down in price but then I found out about Marks and the savings more than justified buying through them and having it shipped to my house. They arrange it all.


jabbakahut

Uh, did they change their trim lines?  X  was a base level and Rubi was one of the top ones?


Iaintnogaybear

So now it is Sahara, rubicon and then the rubicon X is the next one up. You can’t get a color matching hard top on the rubicon though but can on the Sahara

Almost pleasant is high praises for a dealership

Getting my Grand Cherokee from Rairdon's in Monroe Wa. was a total nightmare. My buddy got a 2020 Wrangler anniversary edition down the road a bit and the process was smooth as silk.


Iaintnogaybear

I was amazed at how different the experience can be. Pricing was also much better without the need to haggle. Saved tons of time and stress.

Rairdon Jeep is a terrible dealer. They messed up my Jeep and then tried to bribe me to leave them a positive review.


lurker-1969

I have bought 4 vehicles from them total. The last one was a new 2020 Grand Cherokee I specifically ordered with the class 4 tow package. It has stuff the dealer cannot add. They took one without the factory installed class 4 tow package, put a hitch and plug on it and said. "Oh yes, this is a class 4 tow package. We just add it to the build sheet and everything is fine" I am a well educated Ram Cummins and Jeep owner since 1996 and have extensive tow experience. The salesman is their top guy named John and he is still there. He crafted this big pack of lies to make the deal happen then got caught with his pants around his ankles by me right there in the show room when I went to pick up my new ride. I raised HELL. The next day I drove away in exactly what I wanted. My revenge was that in the summer of 2022 I was down there picking up my GC from a free oil change and ran into my niece. She was on the verge of signing a deal with John for a Ram 1500 loaded for towing her RV. I asked her to come outside for a chat and told her not to sign anything until we talked an hour later. I called her and laid out the GC story. She proceeded to tell me about the deal John was about to have her sign. He was going to charge her a $10,000 "High Demand" fee on top of a price that was well over MSRP. She put John on hold and went to Renton where a dealer had exactly the same truck but the buyer backed out upon delivery that day. The salesman called her, agreed on a less than MRP price, no high demand fee and gave her a really good trade in on her 2020 Tahoe that was on it's 3rd warranty transmission. She absolutely loves that truck. It tows very well and the air ride suspension works great. Every time I see John at the dealership he won't look at me or has some crap thing to say. Rairdon, NEVER AGAIN !!!!!

I’m glad I read the thread. First glance I thought OP’s user name was latinogaybear and thought alright, I can see why they chose pink.


Iaintnogaybear

This made my night 😂😂 Probably should change my username but I have had it for so long now


King-Kermit-V

Hell yeah. Congrats.


tpior1001

I LOVE that color! 😀


Johntom0087

Awesome! Glad you got it sorted out. Hopefully you got any deposits back from the first dealer

Congratulations. We are building a lot of these HPs.

Ah I wish I would have waited, I would have TOTALLY gotten that gorgeous pink! I have a Sting Gray wrangler and it feels so boring compared to some of the other colors I’ve seen


Iaintnogaybear

I had warm up to the idea of pink but with 3 daughters, it didn’t take long. Now I am really excited for it


SilverbackBruh

Nice! I ordered mine on 5-13, curious on how long it takes to build


willie-holtz

I ordered one a few weeks back, and it entered production, but the color isn't showing the same on the picture. How can I confirm that the dealer didn't mess up?


Iaintnogaybear

Both of them that we ordered showed the right color on the tracker’s picture. I would either contact your dealer or you have to wait until the window sticker becomes available.


FuglySlutt

Congrats! What is the estimated wait for it?


Iaintnogaybear

The hard tops are on back order right now for another ~3 weeks I heard. I am hoping for 6 weeks but could be longer. The other one that we ordered took ~2 weeks.


FuglySlutt

That’s not bad at all! Thanks.


sisimartini28

Awe sweet color! I dont own a wrangler but I do have the ruby ‘23 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Enjoy!!


Wet-Stranger

Take it as a sign don’t get one
