So the dealer can make a request to expedite shipping? That is very good to know. I may have to play that card especially since the salesman and sales manager both said that I would emailed updates and I never received a single one. Thank goodness for JeepGarage
 
the tracking over at jeepgarage.org is about the most up-to-date and reliable (you have to do a $25 membership for access) ..

Your dealer has access to the same info, but most dealers are too lazy/stupid to do it. Mine was pretty good about emailing me on status changes, but like vj123 I was checking jeepgarage constantly ;)

jeepgarage will also give you rail tracking once your rig ships.. This was handy in my case, because mine wasn't moving from the destination railyard, waiting for a truck.. my dealer put in a "hot ticket" to get it moving :)
Thats good to know.

My sales guy (whos well known in the Jeep forum) told me that he had zero control over shipping. This was after me telling him that i am losing money on a rental vehicle as i sold my daily driver based on my initial delivery date according to Dodge.
 
AFAIK the only thing they can do is request priority on the last leg from the railyard to the dealer, and even that might depend on the local carrier.
 
Good news. My Durango was delivered to the rail yard today. Hopefully she will get loaded and shipped in the next few days.

I'm sure now it will have been worth the long wait! I love my DDSRT and, hopefully, you will too! White with red interior is a very nice combination.
Thanks. It’s awesome, still can’t believe how well it handles, brakes and accelerates for such practical and heavy car.

Mine was ordered end of april and arrived to dealer 3 months later...interestingly it was stuck in final inspection for a month which was puzzling to me and my salesman..
That’s really unfortunate.
