The factory rep for my Jeep informed my dealer they just added 3 shifts assembly line is running 24/7 for rest of 2012's JKU's as they are trying to get all build by end of June. They are planning to start 2013's by mid July.
Just what I am hearing from dealer and Jeep CS when I talk with them.

So...the badge is gonna go...

The wait is over! Got a dealer email last night saying it was just pulled off the truck. I'm picking it up Saturday. The next two days may possibly be longer than the last 6 weeks.
For the record (for those that care):
Ordered - May 5
First email - May 9
VIN - May 21
Second Email - June 6
Lots of
with CS, 
, then 
, then just a little 
(right Wendy??)
Delivery to Dealer - June 20
So for me, about six and a half weeks. Of course I'll post pics when I bring it home.
Cheers!

You are absolutely right! The last few days seem to take the longest. But it all becomes a distant memory (even the
) when you get to 
in your new JK.

Yup. Obviously. That decal is something more suited to Liberty's or another Jeep SUV. It's almost an insult to those of us who actually will take ours on trails.

Yes. You've been waiting quite a while. I will be interested to see if you have the Alpine sound system in your Rubi; it will show on your window sticker after you receive the "shipment" email. I have the Infinity system and believe I was one of the last ones to get it. It sounds OK, not impressed and not unimpressed.

I don't know how many orders they have, however it would surprise me to see Jeep have everyone built in nine days. I do know all the stock builds that my dealer ordered for 2012 on Rubicons has been cancelled as of last Friday. Seems only thing going out now is sold orders only.
If everything fails I will get a 2013 later in the year everything happens for a reason even though we don't know why at the time.

I have never been good at waiting for anything. It really bothers me (if you cant tell lol). I liked the Infinity system in my 09. Although definately not a aftermarket system, it sounded better than most OEM systems Ive heard. Im sure the Alpine will be about the same way. If it is better, it wont be much.
As of now, I dont care if the Jeep has Infinity or Alpine, I just cant wait to get the vehicle.
