I think you're next Monday at best. They did through VIN 5655 last Friday, so that's 527 away from you. You'd need 106/day to sneak into this week, and with only one shift, they won't be over ~90/day. Any further delays would push you later into next week.

I understand, but you are providing very valuable info, so we all appreciate it, and no one would blame you if the info you got turns out to be false, so don't stress about it.

I think you are absolutely right. At this point, what's another week? Gives me a chance to make a little more room in the garage.

My intel from BGA is that there was production yesterday 11/1 and first shift is running normally right now on 11/2. The official BGA numbers haven't released yet, but please be at least patience and optimistic for the numbers.

Someone on Facebook with VIN 5664 said theirs was NOT built yesterday. The plot thickens!

I'm 6309, and if they build 91 all this week and start 180 on 11/8 you should be built the day after me or around the 10th.

I just looked at my spreadsheet, and you could be built on the 9th if all the assumptions listed above come to pass.

I love the optimism, but that would mean 470 built in three days for me and 495 for "foundvettelifeisgood" if they actually build #5839 today. Do you have information that we are farther along today than vin #5839?
