That has to be tough. But the more I read about the 23's, it has my attention. Seriously considering doing the same thing. If the values hold, why not if it is a better model for choice.
Ughhhhh thats the route you said my truck has taken but stopped at Midlothian. I can only assume now we are going to Port Allen on mine instead of anything efficient like a car carrier to Virginia :SAD:
We are in the same boat...if they take orders on 23's I guess it would be wise to pay a deposit and order one. Seeing the only changes being digital cluster (not that impressive or important), mirrors (let them sort out the inevitable broken gears for a couple years), and a hood (not on most of the models and nothing impressive) makes me think I won't order a 23. Wouldn't make any sense to open a can of worms ever again...particularly for the same truck plus some Pepboys mods glued on in Mexico.
So unpopular opinion here: I feel that the digital cluster alone is the biggest reason to wait for the 23. Had a BMW recently with the digital cluster and HUD and absolutely fell in love. I understand people griping about more tech being bad, but the experience with seeing maps live in front of you, music, speed, etc. all at the time was much nicer than looking at a radio or convincing a passenger to go through it for you.
You make good points. Perhaps I would like the cluster. Now the next question would be where its used. I thought I saw its on the Limited...my taste for trucks is capped on price and the Laramie grade is the highest I am currently willing to pay for lol.
I could easily see it being similar to the 12" radio upgrade. On Longhorn Lvl 1 and Limited Lvl 1 they'll include it in that grouping, or you can select it as an addon separately similar to the radio. I'm sure they'll include it as a media group or something of that sort. Based on prior experience, BMW included theirs in either a package with other options, or you could add it independently.
Dude I would take it!
Me too, only mine says Jun-04-2022. But they are following too close to be coincidental right?
I may be reading this wrong, so if @brv10 has any knowledge, it'd be greatly appreciated. However, by the looks of it, my truck was shipped via truck to TX, where it's going to be shipped back via truck to Mexico, to load a railcar where it'll eventually make it home to me. I may have that completely backwards, but if I'm even remotely close, it looks like they're being moved around to different "holding yards" until issues at the plant can clear up enough for them to officially ship them out.
Lets see what happens theres a chance we'll have both a 22 and 23 to deal with in the end of this lol. The screen already gives you everything minus the gauges being digital I believe. I know navigation and such is there. Time will tell!
I'm just anxiously waiting for the release pricing and options for these 23's and it'll be on order. About to ditch the 22 entirely as I continue to see newer builds ship while mine sits "TBD."
This is a bold plan! I don't know if I can follow because I am truckless at a really really bad time. Per the 8-12 week delivery timeline I sold my 2018 and thought I would use my other vehicles in a light duty capacity until the 22 comes. Well the 22 never came and I am up poops creek now. I hope you are able to ditch the 22 if you want - I see no reason not to grab a 23 if this leads into that ordering period. That being said we are 4 months from them potentially opening ordering for 23s and most like 5 months from what they told me.
I "needed" my truck back in March/April, I build them for show season (April - September) and I've missed about half a dozen so far. It's not what most people on here use their trucks for, so I can't necessarily say I "need" mine, but it's part of my hobby for sure. Sold my old truck back in December thinking it'd be a quick 8-12 week wait, polar opposite. I've got a feeling I'll be in the 7 month range by the time this is all said and done.
The longer I stare at that sheet, the more annoyed I get. Especially the "shippable" column. It blows my mind they don't even have a rough timeframe of when they expect it *might* ship out.
I wouldn't get too excited about the "tes" under shippable. Beggining of last week, mine said no. Friday/Saturday it said yes and today is back to no
Weird for sure. Makes you wonder if it is shippable, then they take a part off your truck to make another one ready. So your is not shippable. Then replace that part so it goes back to shippable, then a repeat. You get the idea. I wouldn’t put it past them at this point . Who dafuq knows what’s going on down there.
