Maybe one was already built that matched what he wanted??????

They do actually build a whole bunch in the various configurations they think will sell, not just what is ordered by specific customers.

They only build what the dealers order. That may be customer orders as well as dealer orders.

We're so excited we don't know whether to smile, spit or swallow. The dealer called today and gave us a build date for "The Silver Fox"; Jan 10. We were planning on a March delivery as a worst case scenario. Looks like "The Silver Fox" will be making her first trip to Bristol in late March after all.

Truck on!!!:rolleyes:
