Progress..... After much hassle. So glad to see this.

 

[KungFu392]

So... My dealer just texted me today to say "Just went D status this morning." He also sent me a screen shot with a VIN (as if he was surprised I had a VIN). Mind you, I've had the vin and have been showing up on the tracker for a week or two now. The interesting thing is that he seems to now agree that we were successful in getting the order in, so no "funny business" should ensue... at least not on his part. Jeeponorder.com status hasn't changed (still shows C), but he sent me a copy of my POC and it does say "D - Firm Schedule" for Status, so I guess that's good. Also shows 27T package and all of the "things" the 20A is supposed to have.

Awesome all around.

It looks like we're mostly past this initial uncertainty stuff. Maybe one or two folks are still waiting on a VIN though?

Anyway, the wait begins! Can't wait to see who 'wins' and gets to post pics first.

JK owner here looking to jump to the 392 20A. I went to place my order today at my local dealer but was told they had closed. Does anyone know if this is coming from Jeep or if they were just out of allocations? Any information on the ability to order one, preferably in the southeast, would be greatly appreciated!

The numbers are limited...

each dealer got a maximum of 2 allotted....

I don't know how you'd find a dealer with a remaining allotment (I tried pretty hard), and if you did, I'm not sure your order would go through due to the limited numbers.

Best of luck.

In general it seems every dealer got one or two sold order allocations. If you can find a dealer with an allocation left, you may be able to still get an order through.

I posted above about someone who still had an allocation left. That one is probably gone by now though.

Numerically, I don't know how every dealer could have even gotten one or two, but to your point, there do seem to be dealers out there on Facebook claiming they still have allocations. I'd search Facebook. If you ask people here, we'll all tell you that we were told that the orders sold out in MINUTES! It seems like nobody really knows.

I’m no expert but I did a search and found there are about 2400 Jeep dealerships in the US. This appears to be a pretty popular trim model so it’s probably gonna be a math thing. Just gotta get on the phone and see who’s got an allocation. I know when the Demon came out they were pretty much scooped up in a few weeks, and that was a run of 3000.

Well... 2400 x 1 = 2400. Presumably, if he's on the 392 forum... he's looking for a 392 20A. If they are only making 4000 20A total and they are 1/2 4xe and 1/2 392 (which, I suppose we don't know for sure), the math is pretty clear that every dealer cannot mathematically have "1 or 2." That's what I was saying.

Like I said, look online for dealers claiming to have allocations and call them ASAP because even those of us who got our orders in during the first 30 minutes of orders being opened had some question as to whether or not our orders went through.

Bottom line, best of luck! I hope you find one because I think it will end up being a pretty special unit!

I was lucky enough to get one on order, it was probably a fluke I found it.

Thanks all, appreciate the help so far. Sounds like ill start searching/hounding Facebook posts for now! If anyone happens to hear any leads, I'd appreciate the tip. Otherwise ill let you know if I have any luck

 

[Dral97]

I wasn’t as clear as I could have been. I didn’t mean allocations for 392s only. More so just expressing how few orders were available to begin with for any 20A. But we could possibly assume that if a dealer has an allocation it could be for a 392. I admit that could very well be an incorrect assumption, again, since we don’t know for sure if they’re doing half and half.

with that being said, I’d love to know how many 392 vs 4xes they have in.

This whole process is obviously clear as mud. Good luck, CFR5. If I see anything on the fb group, I’ll post it here.

Edit: Last post I see on fb is the one I posted yesterday earlier in this thread.

I assume that the 4000 allotment is for all three versions combined. Seems like the crew on this forum are probably biased towards the V8 Power. Im just guessing the preponderance of the 4000 will be 392’s.

 

[Dral97]

The 4xe seems to be pretty popular though. I really just can’t even guess what the split might be if it’s not 2k and 2k.

With who?

 

[Dral97]

With who?

They claim it was the 22 best selling PHEV. I guess that’s relative though. It could mean 30 were sold.

In all seriousness though, from what I can dig up, 43,000 or so MY22 4xes were sold. It looks like fewer than 10k 392s for my22 (at least based on a post on JL forum).

Better for us. Rare beast and no battery to melt down in 10 years.

Why would Jeep shut down the order process when dealers had allocations available? I needed a couple days to get my order in line and missed it without knowing it would be over..

Because they "allocated" more than they actually intended to build, which is why they were "first come, first served." If you had an allocation AND you were quick on the draw, you got the order. If not, then not. At least that's starting to seem how it worked.

"Limited Quantity"

Despite the allocations there was a maximun number of 20a units available.

Someone on Facebook today had one.
