2023 Rubicon 392XR Built !!!

mdpJeep · Sep 4, 2022

Well, it was originally ordered on February 3rd as a 2022, BUT it took a little longer, so Jeep wrote me that it would be built as a 2023. AND it was built August 31st (Wednesday Build) - which is good if the date is accurate. I made myself not look at the progress for the last 2 weeks and the build hadn't even been scheduled yet.

Now, I just gotta wait for it to be shipped. Any guesses - one week - two months ??

Excited !!!!!

I ordered mine January 22. Apparently it has been built but still waiting on final inspection.

The point is that I will be stuck with a 2022.
but maybe I overreacting

"Stuck" with a 2022?? I didn't know I was missing so much by not waiting on a '23.

Mine took a month and a half from the build to delivery to the dealer. Congratulations! You are going to love it!

Sean - that's my dealer as well. What are you having AEV do? I have the AEV Highline kit on my 2004 TJ and have known Dave and done runs with him up in Moab since 2007. Great company !!!

Yeah, Jackson has taken care of us for a long time.

Dave and crew and I go back 15+ years, great people. I'm a huge fan and have been covering AEV as a journalist since almost the beginning. I'm having the full AEV JL370 treatment done to the 392, can't wait.

Mine showed that from February until it was built last week !!

jd392 · Sep 7, 2022

Now with production starting on the 2023's I'm hoping for my VIN number this week or next and can start to process Tax and license plus get my head into the manual before the build is announced. Any secrets you can advise while we wait?
