Default Tread Lightly discount?

Is there any reason to believe that the new Wrangler discount program won't be carried on for the 2012 models?

If I were Fiat and trying to cut costs, I would consider revamping the discount structure - especially on a hot new model. That said, I also have my membership in anticipation of purchasing a 2012.

Question 1 yr vs 3 yr

So if I bought my membership last winter when the jeep discount applied for a one year member versus a three year member, what does that mean now as far as getting a discount?

Not that I mind joining longer, just trying to figure out my jeep purchase plan...

It is optional for each dealer but back when I was looking at going with a 2012 model my dealer said they would have no problem honoring it, even on a pre-order.

I have been looking at buying a jeep jk for a long time and am a member of tread lightly. What I have noticed is when dealing with dealers you can sometimes find a better deal than 1% below invoice by buying at the end of the month and on week days. But 1% below is still a pretty good deal.
