They do so much advertising, I imagine they have more funds coming in than refunds going out.

I think at this point they either did a redesign or moved manufacturing. Heck, maybe both. I would if my supplier was that bad. The labor shortage excuse isn’t really cutting it because other companies are sending out tops. Even if it was true, tops would be trickling out to customers.

It’s just too many other options out there at this point to wait and hope.

Oh my sweet summer child. The tops aren’t being made in CA, or anywhere within 3,000 miles of there.

Just the sheer lack of acknowledging where these hard tops are being "made" is ridiculous.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't care if it's made here, there, or over there - Most of what is manufactured is done so overseas. But not being upfront about it is brutal... Not acknowledging this is worse than being upfront, IMO.

At this point, ADV is being dishonest and deceptive in their ads to deliver the tops in 12-16 weeks. Not even 12-16 months is accurate.

Seems like a line is being crossed.

ADV’s actual business strategy in a nutshell:
  1. Design model of hard top
  2. Take pre-orders
  3. …
  4. Profit
