Wheels are Fuel Vector 20x9 +1. I left the center caps off. Tires are 295/60/20. Stock suspension. I had no rubbing until I put on the Weathertech mud flaps. Trimmed the back side flaps a bit and no issues at all now.

Just gave the new truck it’s first bath. Picked up a few weeks ago. Worth the long wait!

So, I've now had my new truck for about a week and a half, and I've gotten 2 emails from "Cara", telling me my order continues to be prioritized for delivery and I now have an estimated delivery date of 2/8-2/10. I'm so glad they're staying on top of it!

Sounds like my truck is finally out of the Pit of Dispair and at the dealership. Likely won't be able to pick it up until the 8th, but at least it's no longer waiting for a ride. Portland still sucks, though.

Portland, Oregon. I was born there, work there, fortunately don't live there, but can't wait to retire and get far away from there.

There’s nothing about Portland that isn’t the worst at this point.

St. Helens CJDR. I considered Gresham, where I bought my '11 1500, but the sales manager I went through back then is now the owner of St. Helens. He's easy to work with and, although there are better deals out there further away, is getting me down to invoice without having to go too far.

36 Days and counting. So far, 22% of the time since my order, it's been sitting 20 minutes away.

Oh, boy. Another one that will eventually end up in the black hole of the Barnes rail yard (aka, the Pit of Dispair)...

Same. Union contracts, apparently. I wonder if anyone has had any success in getting around this. It’s crazy. I knew heading in to this, there was no guarantee on when it would be delivered. But, when it was built and made it to the rail yard I had a reasonable expectation it would only be...

Frustration at every stage. The last is the worst. Mine is on day 33 at the rail yard, 20 minutes away from my house. I know I haven’t been waiting as long as you, but there are parts of this process that are ridiculous.

Couldn’t agree more. Day 160. It’s been sitting 20 minutes away for 31 days waiting for a ride.

Welcome to the Barnes black hole. You're in good company.

30 days here.

I could be wrong, but I believe it’s standard on all 3500s.
