A little timing update. At the time I ordered mine on Jan 8th there was another 6MT truck in "build phase" destined for this dealer. It was also marked "sale pending." I told the dealer if that deal fell through I wanted dibbs on the truck. That truck finally was built a week or so later, and went into "in transit" with an estimated delivery date of Feb 4th-March 11th. A week or so later it was estimated delivery of just March 11th. Two days ago if fell off the dealer inventory, and I'm guessing it was delivered and sold. So, maybe there is hope I'll see mine in March.
On paper that might make sense, but there’s a lot of other factors that go into it. Especially the trucks that come out of that plant since they have to travel by ship which takes a long time. They have to wait for the ship to fill up so based on timing, could have a longer wait or shorter wait depending on when you truck showed up to the shipyard.

Ya, it could take awhile to get the slow boat from MX to USA. I'm not too worried. My canopy camper won't be done until May, and my adventure isn't until August. Plenty of time.
