Who's a 7/19 build?

Correction; The estimate that's on there is when it might get released from the plant. Not when it's getting shipped. @Desert_6G

That took the wind out of my sails… so not shipping until 8/18 for me.

What is the average amount of time required for “dealer prep” … after reaches the dealer and before we can pick it up?

about an hour to hour and a half depending on when it gets scheduled to be looked at.

The few times I did new car prep it took less than an hour on average. I think the techs get paid about 1 to 1.5 hrs of time per prep so they like to keep it as quick as possible. Some dealerships have a dedicated team that does car prep, while some have techs do it when they don't have other work.

It's mostly removing all the plastic and foam checking fluids and tire pressures, Installing things like license plate brackets, floor mats, and wheel covers in the case of steelies, and usually a short test drive to hopefully catch any major issues. I worked on one escape that at 75 miles had major transmission issues, turned out during assembly there was a bearing missing inside the transmission which messed up everything. Should have been caught during a prep test drive.

congrats. That's pretty fast shipping. Any scratches on the roll bar from the soft top? A lot of soft top owners have noticed it.

Not yet. But I can see where it would happen.

Great minds

So when it gets released, then count about 2-4 weeks for shipment. but if you're scheduled to be released, that's a very good thing. That means nothing else is holding it at the plant except a delivery driver.

PSA - start expecting to see a flurry of email distributions by the 30th!!!!!

Are we still on track for these email distributions?

Yikes. Hope that doesn’t translate for the rest of these.

Here's what needs to happen. If anyone has a delivery date WITHOUT a build date, they need to report if they got the email. The new date with the arrow below is the expected date to release it from the plant. When it gets released, the release date will show under the "built" category (bass ackwards, i know). So if anyone has an earlier date under theirs, they should get the email that same day or super early next morning (2 AM).

Again, the date under "in production" is when it's actually built. This will not change. When it's released (meaning okay to ship) from the plant, that date will be under the "built" section. The "Delivery" date is the ETA for it to get released (IE when you get the email). Don't get those twisted. Already confirmed this is accurate based on a VIN that is on its way to the dealership.

Thank you for the info. Yeah that does seem a little strange to get the release date prior to the build date. But I guess it is what it is. Still showing "Est. N/A" under mine. Hoping to see that change this week.

So that means yours isnt scheduled to be released yet. Yours is probably still at the plant for some reason.

So I was “in production” on 6.18. My date is 7.13, I have not received a truck, what does that mean?

Yeah, I have a soft top too, so I'm not too sure what it could be.
