2012's are yesterday's news. 2013 ordering banks should open up in a few weeks!!!!!! Anyone know of any changes?

We plan to order but only if I see signs that the ticking/head issues are subsiding or at least have leveled off/been addressed. I really don't want to have to deal with that headache. I have not heard of any changes for 2013 other than the possibility of seeing the 8 speed auto trans...but that is pure speculation...and may not happen until the next model year. I also hope they come up with some new colors.

I'm "kinda" waiting...I guess....

Honestly...I kinda f*cked up..... I probably SHOULD have ordered last month, but I gambled (incorrectly) that the $750 cash back on 2 doors 2012's would continue...I didn't expect it to end after one month.....especially since I had finally managed to get on the direct marketing list and get a $500 off discount (that will expire soon) as well.

But that is OK...it has taken me 9 months to figure out what I want..and why. And it is nearly the opposite vehicle that I "thought" I wanted last summer, fall, and winter.

I guess I'll look forward to new color options and any possible updates to the engine heads and JOG issue.

I was at my dealer today, I asked my salesman when the 2013s would be available. He told me they would not be at the dealer until September. However, he also told me air conditioning was standard on a sport... I decided to take everything he said with a grain of salt. He had not heard of any issues with the new engines... He did have a gorgeous Gecko sport with a 3 inch lift and 35" tires sitting on the lot. I had to remind myself I was waiting for the perfect 2013 color!

There is another thread that Milous has provided colors on. Of course, nothing is definite but he's been a very reliable source in the past.

BILLET METALLIC CLEAR COAT (Late availability)
BLACK CLEAR COAT
BLACK FOREST GREEN PEARL COAT
BRIGHT WHITE CLEAR COAT
DEEP CHERRY RED CRYSTAL PEARL COAT

Well, I guess I'll take my seat here. Ordered my first Jeep (other than a 2wd 1992 XJ with 250,000 on the odometer) 3 weeks ago through the Military car buying service. 2013 Unlimited Rubicon. Pretty stoked and waiting for the info to come out!

Just ordered mine the same way. When did they tell you that you can finalize colors/options?
 
#38 ·
The guy didn't really have a date for me. He said probably around mid-June. I would assume June 6th IF that really is the release date. I've seen it multiple places. I don't have much to change anyways from what I can tell. My color of choice is bright white. The only way that would change is if Detonator Yellow came back, but it doesn't look like it will be :/

Congrats! Any changes to the 2013 that you know of?? I have been hearing of some possible seat changes and dual windshield washer nozzles on the '13's. Just about getting ready to place an order for a '13 Rubi. I have a 2010 Rubi now, ready for the new engine! The Jeep site is not showing what options may have changed for 2013. So I'm wondering about colors etc... As for the gearing, I thought the Rubi came std with the 4.10?? So are you saying now you can't get the 4.10?? Hmmm....
 
#41 ·
What did you order? Exactly, what options and colors, if you don't mind.
Did you get your VOTS yet?

PS Congrat's.

Dozer Unlimited Rubi
Automatic
3.73 (couldn't order 4.10, but I think that is a bug)
Saddle leather
730N
Dual Top
Color Match HT
Auto Temp air
Connectivity package

VOTS? Lost me.

I went though the whole deal last year when I ordered my 2012 back in June of 2012... Congratulations on placing your order, now the wait it going to seem like forever...
Good Luck with the waiting game. The day will come.

The gear situation with the 4.10's.... all 2012 early orders went though the same situation. Many of us 12'ers raised hell about not getting the 4.10's on our Rubicon. What the company did was include the 4.10 gears on all early orders for the Rubicon. Don't know if they will do that for you early order guys.

How exactly did you raise hell? Where did you express that you wanted 4.10 for your order other than your sales person?

VOTS is your order number and allows you to look up (and look up and look up) the state of your production. System doesn't work too well, but is still interesting. If your order was placed, your dealer has the number.


/vots/vehicle_status.html?firstName=&lastName=PUTYOURLASTNAMEHERE&vin_last8=&orderno=PUTYOURVOTSNUMBERHERE

Copy and paste the above, substituting our last name and VOTS number where appropriate. That said, for a 2013, I don't know when you could expect to show some results.

(PS Having trouble getting the URL to show completely.... this above should give you an idea...)

PS In the Gecko waiting room and elsewhere you can find a URL which will show you window sticker. That's pretty cool too.

Yes, I have my Vehicle Order Number (VON). I tried tracking on the Vehicle Order Tracking (VOTS) system, but it is not coming up yet. The dealer told me I will get an email at some point from the system, which I have yet to receive.

The URL for the Jeep VOTS:
