I'd be asking for them to work the price some as well. paint fixes never last as good as an original paint job etc. some dealerships won't even tell u it comes in damaged and hide the fact and fix the issues before you see it. I'd be super pissed at the inflated prices we are paying these days and wait times.

Regarding the massive spreadsheet that is tracking all of our orders, was I somehow supposed to note if I ordered a sunroof and BSM? Or will that somehow populate automatically as the truck is built?
 
I was told today that I'm in KZ status with no estimated ship date. Is that a bad sign? The lady acted like he was weird there was no estimated ship date.

Probably not, I was in KZ for around three days before they could give me an arrival at the dealer estimate.

I would be demanding a new truck - a previous damaged truck was replaced with high priority and it moved very fast - a 19xxxx vin as I recall that beat the 14xxxx to 16xxxx VINs in work at that time to dealer. Probably get the replacement before the damaged one could be repaired, especially if there is an insurance fight over who pays and how much.

You cant repaint and repair a truck with that much damage and sell as new. I had a red Charger that looked great off the lot but Left Front fender faded and lost all its gloss in 2 to 3 years - obvious undisclosed repaint not up to factory paint standards.

Hope you don’t go JS. I was told I was KZ with no ETA to dealer and brv10 discovered I was KZLD and JSLD at the same time. Went 30+ days without movement after window sticker. But the process varies so much, it’s hard to say.

Very normal. Have a look at the Build Status Codes to understand at what step the equipment listing becomes available and then the window sticker.

Yeah, window sticker should pop in a day or two. Especially if you have add ons like 5th wheel prep etc. Those get added then the window sticker comes up.
 
Picked up my truck! Dealership was awesome to work with. Met the Owner, General Manager, Sales Manager and Title Department. My Sales Lady was absolutely perfect in her execution. I was given everything I ask for to include 1% Under Invoice, $500 PenFed Discount and another $500 FCA or maybe it was Military Discount. Dealer took care of all Title, Registration paperwork. My Sales Lady also offered me the Extended Warranty, but it was way more than Zeigler Warranty. I never had to make a trip to Finance as my Sales Lady completed all the necessary documents and took to Finance for approval. The General Manager went over the final finance documents for my signature.

I financed through USAA at 1.88% for 60 months. I hope to have it paid off in 6 months. Dealer couldn't offer me enough for my 2004 Avalanche so I didn't trade it in however, Sales Lady took me to the Service Department and introduced me to the Service Manager and Service Writer. Once I had completed my purchase and was ready to leave the dealership the Service Manager approached me and ask if he could purchase my Avalanche outright for cash. He offered me about $1000 more than current Market Conditions so I had to accept.

Anyone within the Ohio Valley, WV, KY, TN, PA, MI, etc who wouldn't mind driving to purchase their truck, I'd give this dealership 5 out of 5 Stars. This is a small hometown dealership yet they pack an awesome punch. Not as awesome as Mark Dodge who is getting raving reviews with their 3-4% below Invoice, but well worth checking out if you don't want the hassle of flying to LA and driving home. You can find them on the web https://www.norrisnorthupchryslerdodgejeep.com/?utm_source=gmb&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=m2 Just look up Northup Dodge in Gallipolis, OH. And you absolutely have to speak with Steffani Patterson. She is Phenomenal!!!! Tell her someone with the email address of chuck.millennium sent you! She will remember me because I teased her about spelling Millennium! LOL

Pics?!?!?
 
My truck is scheduled to arrive at the rail yard in Memphis early tomorrow morning. I went exploring and found the lot where the rail cars are unloaded. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of cars on the the lot which probably means that my 1/31-2/14 delivery date is accurate.
