I hear you pentastar, a phone call isn't much to ask as would put your mind at ease

I guess I'm just having a bitch cos to me it doesn't seem like that much to ask to get a call every now and then just to let me know of anything going on or just to say everything is on track etc etc.
I'm sure everything will be fine but it is a bit of customer service that makes all the difference.
I got told mid December delivery, I called three or four times a week for the past two weeks, just gone three ours is now a week and a half away. Our dealer said the exact speech.... I threatened to pull my deposit and take my business elsewhere I also spoke to the dealerships manager regarding professionalism and finally got them to start calling me and chasing my order...

Hey Geko, going back to your original post any changes to the lighting on the instrument cluster for the 2013?

They seem to have chenged a fair bit of the internal lighting. Would be interested to know if the instrument cluster is now illuminated or if it is still dark as hell and you need to run with lights on (I do )

I ordered mine in the first week of February... due to be delivered end Nov/early Dec. Will be about 10 months from order to delivery.

There were MASSIVE delays due to availability of the 4:1 tcase (apparently), although others got the front D44 delay story. I ordered a MY12 before they were actually released in Aus, and will now get an MY13 - took so long.

They were calling all customers nation wide who had ordered Rubicons to offer either money back or change order to a sport... I decided to wait it out. For about 8 months no-one anywhere could give a status update... I lost patience more than once, but now I'm excited all over again.

Parts are piling up by the day - almost time for the build to begin.

S.

Hey Seacomms,

Dark as hell, think it's a combination of dark cluster and window tint (factory fitted).

If I am driving during the day with the sunnies on and the windows up I can barely see the speedo. Need to run with at least park lights to have the instrument cluser illuminated.

Interesting, sun must be worse on the central coast as mine does not suffer this affliction
