Default Has your Dealership received a '11 Grand Cherokee yet?

I wanted to create a thread so our members could report the date when their first '11 Grand Cherokee arrived at the dealership.

Have any '11 GCs arrived yet?

If not, what the ETA of the first unit?

Thanks.

I got the idea when I read a post on Allpar from a person in Southern California who reported seeing a '11 GC with a temporary registration.

While I acknowledge it's possible some dealers may have '11 GCs in inventory, it seems strange that a dealer on the West Coast would have one of the first retail sales. I'm sure the Product Trainers and the Technical Trainers have demonstration vehicles but you'd think they'd all have Manufacturer Plates.

If nothing else, this thread should give ALL our members with a Jeep franchise something to post about. No excuse for the lurkers....

E.T.A. 6-15-10. Speaking of shipping I have been waiting for a Wrangler since 2-11-10.

Do you mean the Wrangler's been built and it's been sitting in a KZ status for almost four months? Is the vehicle still on your floorplan?

Oh ya been paying on it. Got a email from our D.M. today on Dealer Standards. I sent one back saying how about Chrysler Standards. I would like the Car before I have a 2011 in stock or it has Hair Growing on it.

I have had a few wranglers take eight plus weeks in KZ status. And I am only seven hours from where they make them. They seem to be better as of late though.

That's incredible - I wonder what the story is?

I remember reading a thread where several Wranglers were being "Shipped to Storage" but that was months ago. I think that's when Chrysler was having issues with the hardtop vendor.

Thumbs down

I have a Patriot (old pkg before Lattitude was announced) Now distressed inventory...

ordered 9-11-09
D1 3-36-10
built 4-21-10
Kz 4-21-10
KZOA 4-22-10 (Plant Hold)
still
waiting 6-3-10

Yep, on floorplan... I will probably have to pay a curtailment before we even get the car !

DM's answer "We've marked it HOT, what else do you want us to do?"

Based on ssdd's thread about the '11 GC Ride and Drive I got the impression that none of the dealers have inventory yet - is that correct?

Does anyone have one in stock, or do you know of a dealer who does?
