I know this poll probably doesn't matter to anyone, but me, because I STILL DON"T HAVE A TRUCK!http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Angry.gif

But humor me. I need to have something to do while my bench full of mod.'s just sits there waiting for a truck to put them on.

BTW - according to Howard_M18 my truck should be built today (9-24-04) but I won't know till Monday and I'm not holding my breath. It's been 12 looooong weeks! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cry.gif

If it does get built today - dealer hopes to have it trucked here by Tuesday. I'm only an hour from the factory, but I don't think the teamsters union would take to lightly to me driving it home from the factory.

Thanks for sharing my pain!

Thanks for the poll, It may shed some light on how long of a wait I have. I am still waiting on my TPW, but I reckon I will get that sometime next week.

Mine was just unloaded off the transporter yesterday (9/27). Will probably pick it up tonight. Just over 6 weeks from order to delivery to dealer (8/12 to 9/27). Salesman wouldn't even let me have the keys yesterday when i looked at it, I guess since they havent dont anything with it. Odom only had 2 miles!, i thought it would be more like 9 or 10. It was still all dirty from the ride. Can't wait to pick it up.

From the poll it looks like it's just matter of "luck of the draw" as to how long it takes - many variables affect the final outcome.


BTW - Trucks being preped at the dealer.


Side note: Carbon Metallic is alot darker than I expected - not much diff than black. I'm sure it will grow on me - just have to wash it more oftenhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/hihi.gif
