Just got back from the dealer (they phoned, so I walked across the road from work rather than phoning back). They can't find a 2004 Liberty Limited that matches my order, and since they didn't want to order one from the factory when I placed the order (last month) I'm now SOL. I was offered one in Black or Timberline Green neither of which are the Patriot Blue I ordered. I was also given the choice to reduce my options and they'll try again to find one in Patriot Blue... I'm definitely NOT reducing my options!
Here's the kicker. I live in Kitchener, ON. Canada and I've found 3 of them exactly how I want at dealerships in BC (1 in Surrey, 2 in Victoria) but my local dealer is unwilling to bring them in and cited the obvious reason of "cost of shipping" (they pegged it at $2400).
How would you proceed in this case? I've put quite a bit of time into this whole ordeal, and I'm really not wanting to budge on anything, but it's looking like my choices are... limited (no pun intended). So it looks like my options are
1. Take the Black or Green (really, really, don't like green)
2. Take less options and hope they find it (almost not a consideration)
3. Wait for the 2005's, screw up my summer vacation (needed the Liberty) and get that dumb-*** chrome grill (Limited).
4. Cancel the deal with the dealership in Kitchener, fly out to B.C. and drive the thing home (I haven't even looked if I can afford this option, or the time off of work).
And I'm NOT getting an 05 CRD so don't even bother mentioning it.
