Well, take this for what you will. I'm a little shocked, actually.
I ordered a new jeep (it's pretty frigging cute and completely ridiculous, but whatever. My husband told me to order what I want, so here we are. He was taken a bit aback, but he did say whatever I wanted
) I was told it would be September at the earliest. Fine. I like my jeep that I'm driving. A lot.
Got a text from our friend (who I ordered the jeep through) and an email from jeep that it's in production and is expected to be ready last week of June. . Barring the poop hitting the fan, we're good to go.
At the sane time, I know that the auto industry is quite the mess at the moment. (Believe me....I so know) But somehow, I'm getting a jeep built from the ground up 6 weeks from order to finish.
I'm not complaining. I'm just a little wtf? What the hell is going on? And how????
Funny thing is that I can't get a V6. I could get the diesel (Uh, no) the electric (double no. I drive too much) or the 4 cylinder turbo. I drove one to make sure I wasn't going to be strung out with the endless line of semis at 5% grade. (We shall not get me bitching about that) 4T it is. Actually a bit better than the 6. And I had to be talked into a V6 after driving Tahoes (V8) for just about ever.
(Clearly, I'm not the woman you want talking about saving the planet from certain death in 12 years. If that's true, get the hell out of my way and the left lane. I know y'all see me coming up behind you. Move. I've got places to be before the world ends.
