Took the plunge, been wanting a Wrangler 392 Rubicon ever since I first heard about it. Ordered yesterday from Jeep in Kingman for MSRP, hopefully see it in 8 weeks or so. Some dealers are marking these up 30k over sticker and the rumor on the Jeep forums they may stop production of the 392 after 2022. I got the same one pictured, Sky One Touch roof, Hydro Blue with Black interior and a few other options but they come with pretty much every thing so the option list is short. We love our 18 JKU, have it setup to do everything we want in the rocks but it just lacks the oomph on the road.

If I wanted a Jeep, I'd take a hard look at that one!

My buddy flew up here to N Idaho about a month ago to pick his up from Dave Smith. Don't remember if he said he got it for MSRP, or under, but it definitely wasn't over.
Pretty bad ass Jeep.
So far he loves it!

It will be more like 8 months not 8 weeks. I'm 4 months in waiting for ours.

I sure hope not. Sales guy said his orders have been taking 8-12 weeks
Hope so. I have another friend that has been waiting since May for a Ram 1500 they ordered.

I wonder if they'll put that motor in the Gladiator. Did they do anything special to the axles to keep them together? Upgrade to 60s?

My boss in Atl just picked one up last week. One of his peers bought it without asking his wife. Wife was pissed so he swooped in and bought it at a steal. He wouldn’t tell me what who it was!

What no money shot? Lift her skirt up and show us the goods 😛
I definitely will get some pics. Got the call at 2 pm yesterday sitting at work, had to run home grab the wife and drive out to Kingman from Vegas, needless to say it was bedtime once I made it back home. I haven't even looked at her goodies yet myself!

So bad ass!! I can't wait to hear all about it.

Crazy, because my little toilet of a 6cyl can light my 35s up no problem. The V8 is going to be awesome!

I have the same color on my new Gladiator Mojave.

It was not cheap, but once you drive it you know it's worth it! We have had our '18 JKU since almost new and this one is light years ahead

Does this one have the flaps to open exhaust like the charger and challengers do?

Saw one when buying our 2500. Definitely a nice looking Jeep. There are guys that did it after market but this os factory. Would be a blast on the trails but I am not baller enough to justify that. LOL
