2013 CJs

@ Bo. Im not sure how many will have SC's. The final orders are not due in until tomorrow. I have two for sale. One black one silver both have superchargers and the graphics. Ford has really put these cars on a diet and shed quite a few pounds.

I have not heard how much weight was shed but the 5.0 is lighter to begin with. Like said above only two engine options (naturally aspirated and supercharged) We have Black Supercharged with graphics package ordered as well. I'm hoping to have a confirmation number in the next day or so. Does any previous CJ owners, or dealers care to share the process once you "get" one ordered?

Ford's telling us they have made significant improvements to the suspension package and the sixty foots will show it. (Now I just better find a better sponsor than myself or a wealthy sugar momma so I can keep it when it gets here! If you didn't get a chance to see the black one at PRI, it's a looker.

Not much of a process. Once your orders are confirmed they will start production on a set date. The number of car you get doesn't necessarily mean the actual number it was produced. I am not sure if they will have a owners event at AAI this year like they did last year for the dealers/owners to pick up their cars. Prior to pick up they will either bill your P&A code or you can send them a check. Larry Ferrin coordinated pick up last year and the entire process was seamless.

The 2013s are suppose to be 350 to 400lbs lighter so that would put them around 2820lbs

2820...That's what they should weigh on the street! Mustang at 35-3600# is just wrong.

Jack, any rumors on the solid rear axle vs IRS in the next gen mustang? (hope it's still SRA since it still outhandles the IRS crapmaro and challenger)

Thanks

Not sure about the rear axle I will research

I was told by Jesse Kershaw this morning that they will be roughly 3175 lbs, as delivered. Now what weight they will be listed at is ??

Jack Hodge · 02-02-2012, 08:31 PM

Then 3175 will be the shipping weight. Last year they were 3220 lbs and listed as 3220lbs
