Mistakenly, yes. Only been paying attention for the last few weeks to the new ELs that were populating. Going back through the older ELs, I was mainly concentrating on the limiteds as they come standard with the RB unless deleted. Noticed there were a bunch of limiteds built right in a row but all had the RB deleted. That is good to hear one coming out recently but yikes, you were an Oct order.
Yep, it's been a long wait, but there have been many others that waited longer. I gave up trying to figure out what drives them to prioritize one build ahead of another. There has been lots of speculation along the way. Here's a few other reasons for building out of order I've heard (besides parts availability):
- Highest profit margin go to the front of the line
- High volume dealers get prioritized
- They batch vehicles going to certain regions to optimize shipping efficiencies
- Certain dealers get special treatment by ordering groups of identical vehicles
- Stellantis needs to keep their dealer network in business/happy, so they favor dealer orders over ours
- They use a random number generator to schedule the builds
I doubt we will ever know all of the factors that go into their approach . . .
