Default Order Question, again.

My TPW is this week. It was listed as 5-19.

I checked with the dealer on Tuesday, and was still stuck at 3400. I know the dealer computer updates on Tuesdays. That is why I checked with them then. Anyone know if it updates more than once a week. I really don't want to bother the sales guy, he has been very nice to me this far. I call him all the time.

It is getting close. I just want to know if I exsist yet... So anyone know if they update the systems more than Tuesdays.

Yes the system can update every day. I have 10 being built this week and 4 have still not finished yet.

When my order got to that point, it started changing (status codes) like crazy and all of a sudden was done! Bet you car will be all built by the end of today or tomorrow. Congrats!

Ordered mine on 4/24, had an original TPW of 5/19....I believe it was built about a week early as I was at 3400 last week (3400 is where all the various components for your particular car are sent to different areas of the plant for assembly). Got the VIN from my dealer this week and should be on the truck to SC! Hoping it will be here Friday.

When you get the VIN does that mean the vehicle is completely built ??
Ordered mine on 4/23. TPW is 5/26.

I believe so...3800 (built) is the code right after 3400. I have read that the VIN should be available once the car hits 3800. Chances are yours was probably built this week...as mine was built a week ahead of my original TPW.

Send a pm or email to karguy6, give him your VIN number, he has access to the Allied trucking system and can track if it has been shipped or not.

I am at 3800. I think it has to be invoiced first. ( 4150 ) and then shipped.

Next week at latest, I hope.
