No TPW still and on the west coast so double whammy. Whenever it does get built then I have to expect another 4 weeks. I guess the DW will now make it my Christmas present

My question is at 3300 I’m definitely getting a 2020 but I haven’t had a build date yet. So if I get my car in Feb or March it will be a year old and worth less than MSRP when I actually pay for it. They need make it a 2021 or lower the price, which I know they won’t.

I was 9/28 TPW for the longest time. Then 10/12 then 10/19 and now I just got an email from Shane that my car should be built 11/4. He was able to get me scheduled so I am hoping my TPW is firm now.

I am right there with you...I was notified by Shane during the shutdown last week, my TPW was pushed for the 7th time, from 10/26 to now 11/16. Who knows, by Friday, it may be sometime after Thanksgiving!!!
