I ordered my Prospector XL in February, and 7 months later I took delivery. Aside from the numerous delays in manufacturing/sourcing parts, the final delay was the inability to find transport from AEV's shop in Wixom, Michigan. So I finally just decided to fly up there and drive it back myself (550 miles). I had a great time touring their shop and walking through their parts distribution space, and Andrew from the sales team couldn't have been more accommodating, spending almost two hours with me to show me their space and help me with a couple additional parts.
AEV hasn't been immune to some of the parts sourcing cluster that has plagued virtually every auto manufacturer; earlier this summer they were supposed to receive 600 tires but only had 16 arrive. Not wanting that issue to hold up all of their conversions, they went ahead with everything else and will do the wheels/tires when they arrive.
Photos below from my visit/tour, my favorite is the AEV Prospector on stock wheels and tires. Looks like a weightlifter missed several leg days!
