Squize my newby question. You have to pre-order your jeep? You telling me that I can't sell my current montero and walk in thinking I will drive out the same day?
If I am off base please show me the light

Technically no. BUT, ordering mine to my specification did cost me a little more because I got exactly the features I wanted. If you take one off the lot, you won't feel that. If you're going to order one to your liking, then don't look at the stickers on any of the rigs on the dealer's lot and you won't feel the price difference!

Yeah it really depends upon how quick the inspection, initial prep, transfer to the dealer, and dealer prep occurs. You want it to be quick so you can get your vehicle but you really want it to be thorough so you know that the vehicle has no damages from delivery or missed steps in the preparation process.
Here's a question for others who have received their ordered 2012 vehicles: Did you "receive" 4 ballistic nylon JEEP grab handles that you strap onto the roll cage or where they "installed" onto the roll cage when you received the vehicle?
The reason I ask is I had several packages in the glove box containing the grab handles... which I later installed. A friend said the handles should have been installed as part of the dealer prep. Didn't matter to me but I was just curious if it was the same for others as well.

Memphis is 5 hours from here (which it left there on a delivery truck at 5:30 pm yesterday). The dealer will check the Jeep for shipping damage and do a full PDI on the Jeep. If it comes in early today, it should be ready this afternoon.
My dealer is very thorough on their work. Never had any issues.
Here to hoping I get to drive it today!!!
