Did you use CCAP for the lease?
No, he means it literally depends on where the car is getting registered. I believe the Acquisition fee in the past has been 1195. It doesn’t matter if you bought through Gupton or a local dealer, you’ll get charged the same fee by Chrysler based on your zip code

Had it escalated via chat a month and a half ago. I’ll try calling. I feel like it just disappeared in the system and will probably never get built.
Same here. Hoping I can get it this month. Don’t wanna gumble with Nov. #s
Early HAs, especially those placed early to mid June w grey interior seem to be moving extremely slow or not at all.
So many are stuck in D
For those that used shipping from LA or ordered with clutch, who did you use for shipping? Did Clutch help with that or did it come from the dealership. I have never shipped a car so wanted to be prepared for my car landing in the next couple of weeks
How can you do that?
Crazy. I ordered in August and I already have it and put 1000 plus miles on it in 2 days.

Yes I did.
Did you do one pay?
Originally tried using the dealer for shipping. They put out an offer and see if any shipper will accept it. After about a week of waiting I decided to go with door to door transport. Ordered on a Monday, car picked up from LA on Thursday, delivered to my door in Northern CA on Sunday night. $1295.
I did not do one pay
Will be interesting to see if more companies follow the tesla model of braking or the audi model of mixed braking/coasting. The audi model has the benefits of the laws of thermodynamics on its side and should be more efficient than one pedal driving.

Ordered granite/grey interior and heavily optioned on 7/28. Sat in D for 8 weeks. Hit framing stage today and hopefully to the dealer near the end of the month and then shipped from LA to NorCal in early Nov.

Audi, BMW, Chevy, and Tesla all use one pedal. It was hard getting used to in the Tesla, Now it will be hard to ever go back.
Audi does not.
Audi uses a combination of linked brakes that will regen when you apply the brake pedal up to max before engaging the real brakes, predictive application of the regen based on traffic conditions, and a coasting mode that disconnects the motors, reducing energy loss when not needed. At no point can you drive the vehicle as a true one pedal style, nor is there really a good reason to.
Chevy uses a similar hybrid brake system that regens before engaging the brakes when you press the pedal.
Tesla does none of that. The brake pedal directly applies the brakes. All the regen is captured in the accelerator pedal.
The coasting system is the most efficient, as you’re wasting energy anytime the motors are accelerating or regening. Yes, regen is significantly better than bleeding off kinetic energy via the brakes, but if you can maintain speed by coasting without pushing electrons through the motors, you’re in the best position thermodynamically. If the motor doesn’t completely disengage to allow coasting, when you try to coast, you’ll decelerate more rapidly and lose energy to back emf.
True one pedal driving is definitely better than many solutions but it has some fundamental flaws that limit its peak efficiency.

The ole burn and coast :-). Efficient but dang it will drive our fellow drivers nuts!
I had the dealer list on central dispatch. The guy clutch uses was more. You can try both though no risk.
i was told to check in halfway of this month yesterday by gupton,
i hope its tomorrow, dumping my tesla this month horrible battery life

Jeep has been in the shop yesterday and today. They had to order a new seatbelt assembly to resolve the issues. Hopefully that does it. Wasn’t related to fuses at all.
