Yea just got off the phone with the dealer. Confirms mine was built but said he won't even give me a guestimate on when it will be here. I'm real close to 6 months waiting and looks like I'll be joining the 7+ club. I'm guessing mine will show up right after the zero percent offer lapses and right before a new promo starts, lol.Congratulations! Mine is now stuck waiting to be shipped.

I was considering asking about this, should be doable since the truck is built and dealer should have been invoiced for it. I've heard the zero percent will go through the rest of the month. The downside to doing it his would be if the truck shows up damaged.Not sure if this helps - and I am not positive how this works - but my truck is on the last leg of the route to the dealer. My dealership was able to "finalize" my sale and complete the paperwork to get me the 0% incentive.
Nice. But you did get a burger and fries from Checkers? None that I know in MO. Lucky you all around.Picked up my 3500 yesterday. Evan from MD dropped it off and I did a quick walk around and drove it home. Saga complete. Now the fun begins...
I didn't pay anything further. I think they just indicated it as "sold" in their internal system. Again I really don't know how it works though. Just trying to help out from my experience.I was considering asking about this, should be doable since the truck is built and dealer should have been invoiced for it.

Also curious to know, for those who purchased through Mark Dodge specifically, what your timeline looked like once the purchase process was complete? As in, how long did it take for MD to release the vehicle after finance, how long did it take the carrier to go to MD and pick the vehicle up and how many days did it take to get to your door?
@kennyarsen - @Gibby56 can probably give you some insight. I reached out to him and he recommended going direct through MD. He told me they use the same logisitcs platform that Bring-A-Trailer uses and MD does not take a cut. You end up paying the driver cash upon delivery for it. He was right at $1 a mile, but that was back in the end of May. He also told me it was two days from the day he loaded it from MD to get it to him in the Bay Area of CA.Does anyone have any recommendations for a car carrier service? I just sent the wire to Mark Dodge and the truck will be ready for pick up soon. I am curious to know if anyone here has a great carrier in mind.

I believe they (MD) changed the carrier they use. I had gotten a rough quote some months back, which at the time was about $0.86 per mile, or about $1,500 total (1,700 miles). When I spoke to Robert at MD this last Saturday, he said they were using a new carrier and it was going to be $2,700.00. Quite the increase. Not sure I want to pay over $1,000 more, to utilize their carrier.@kennyarsen - @Gibby56 can probably give you some insight. I reached out to him and he recommended going direct through MD.

not surprising given the rise of fuel prices in the last 4-6 months.I believe they (MD) changed the carrier they use.

Not sure I want to pay over $1,000 more, to utilize their carrier.
I am hoping someone can reach out and let me know who they might recommend.
OH WOW! Well let me know, mine is "scheduled" to be at MD on the 11th. Yeah, if it is that much more, than I'll be flying and driving. I'm 1,623 miles from Lake Charles to Pismo Beach.....I believe they (MD) changed the carrier they use.

A friend has a truck and does this for a living, let me reach out and i will let you know, may work for some of you to get a combined trip/rate.Does anyone have any recommendations for a car carrier service?

To be honest looking at these numbers and factoring the canceled orders, i thinkAlright Folks, here we go on the super daily update ;-)
Happy to see some movement on the Build of last year is almost all caught up (13 out of 961 pending, 98.6% complete)
Overall numbers from last week (Pretty good week) with overall completion rates
2 more orders added
0 Built - Overall 93.3% complete total (currently sitting at 99 units left to build) - Rome wasn't built in a day ;-)
44 Delivered - Overall 69.8% complete total - this is purely thanks to @brv10 and @OfficerDirtySanchez for checking stale records on the spreadsheet for some users that have not been as active and affecting the overall results (updated/checked up to 12/14/21) 44+12 = 56 total movement with organic update and "partial" check of stale records
More metrics/analysis for the data freaks (completion rates with qtys pending)
2021 - (13 out of 961 pending Build, 98.6% complete), delivery is at 92.5% (72 out of 961 waiting for shipping) - 72 is an amazing number, even more amazing is 53 orders are canceled overall, show show delivered others dont.
Q2-May and June of 2021 are 100% built, delivery is at 98.0% (4 out of 198 waiting for shipping) - the 4 that are not shipped are canceled ordered - 15 total canceled orders- we can now count Q2 2021 100% completed
Q3-July, Aug and Sep of 2021 are almost 100%(99.5% to be exact) Built (only shy 2 out of 375), and delivery is at 98.1% (7 out of 375 waiting for shipping) - 15 orders are canceled so the Build and delivery is much closer than shown
Q4-Oct, Nov and Dec of 2021 Build is at 97.2% (11 out of 388 pending), Delivery starts to rear its ugly head, is at 84.3% (61 out of 388 waiting for shipping) - 23 orders are canceled so the Build and delivery is much closer than shown - should put build at 100% as well and delivery even more complete
2022 - (88 out of 508 pending Build, 82.7% complete), delivery is at 27.0% (371 out of 508 waiting for shipping)
Q1-Jan, Feb and March of 2022, Build is at 92.1% (32 out of 407 pending), Delivery continues with challenges, 30.7% (282 out of 407 waiting for shipping) - 9 orders are canceled so the Build and delivery is much closer than shown
Q2-April, May and June of 2022, Build is at 44.6% (56 out of 101 pending), Delivery is at 0.03% (98 out of 101 waiting for shipping) - 4 orders are canceled so the Build and delivery is much closer than shown
Let me know if any other metrics should/could be evaluated. - Added changed numbers in red for better visibility - Added a canceled ordered column - New comments in Green
Thank you for the lift again @brv10 and @OfficerDirtySanchez
PS because there is significant more data, i will share the time to build calc like a few weeks back and see how that looks now.

I greatly appreciate this effort. It really helps.To be honest looking at these numbers and factoring the canceled orders, i think
2021-Q2 is 100% complete (0 non-canceled orders left to complete) 194-15= 179 legit orders with 194 delivered- my sense is 100% complete
2021-Q3 is 100% complete (4 non-canceled orders left to complete) 375-15= 360 legit orders with 368 delivered - my sense is 98.9% complete
2021-Q4 is 100% complete (50 non-canceled orders left to complete) 388-24= 364 legit orders with 327 delivered- my sense is 86.7% complete
2022-Q1 is 100% complete (plus or minus 264 orders pending) 407-9= 398 legit orders with 134 delivered - my sense is 33.7% complete
2022-Q2 is 100% complete (plus or minus 94 orders pending) 101-4= 97 legit orders with 3 delivered- my sense is 0.03% complete
my brain is also tired after a long day, someone check my math/reasoning
