If you went to a dealer showing and there was a 2-door example, please tell me where? They are more elusive than a Sasquatch. Asking for a friend ;)

My theory: Sales/Marketing is usually a game of catch-up. Trying to catch-up to your going-in projections & business model. 2-door demand has likely already blown past that...so by definition the 4-door lags.

I get that, but I haven't seen a single 2-door on the showroom circuit. Was told by BN guy that they were supposed to have them.

My dealer said they were getting a 2 and 4 door for their event, and then emailed back a few days later that it will just be two 4 doors.

They obviously have some produced, but maybe they are holding back on the parts they have for actual customer production since they were off in their estimates? šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

Also suspect they are trying to drive additional 4 door orders to get closer to the balance they estimated.

I heard (my dealer told me) 2-doors were there, but you had to have a priority code to see them.

These are all preproduction models that were already built. Production rarity wouldnā€™t matter. My theory is it has something to do with the hardtop. Notice how they are all soft-tops. Also notice how the 2DRs that have been running around recently, do so with those gross aftermarket tops. Something is up with the hardtop. Thatā€™s my theory. šŸ§

I just returned from the event in Pgh and the one local dealer attending told me he is getting a 2-door in for dealer stock around May 8. He also said that it will probably be sold by then.

There are as many 2-door Broncos running around out there as there are 2-door Jeeps on car lots. Next to none. (I just checked the dealers around me and a few in Sacramento and they had 0 2-dr Jeeps to buy....all 4 doors)

I think they have mostly 4 doors bc their team of ppl going out are at least 4-5 ppl plus their stuff. The team today was 4 ppl. Then they had tents, laptops, small guard rail things.

Sounds like a perfect time to have three 2-doors! šŸ¤Ŗ

Had a similar thought as these dealer events have been going on.

They likely didn't correctly anticipate the popularity of the 2-door. Jeeps 2-door sales account for less than 10% of all Wranglers. Ford likely ran with that figure and got caught short.
