Waiting Begins.......

Thanks Cory, just getting very excited...especially since I've already sold my car and sharing with the wife is not cool...feel all girly driving a CRV (j/k CRV owners)

That means it is still in Chicago, much better than already heading out here to the East Coast at the moment!

Thanks Cory!
You’re welcome, LTD ME. :D

Thanks Cory, just getting very excited...
maple39,

You got it; you have every right to be excited! :)

OK Cory, we are finished with her nastiness "SuperStorm Sandy" Could you folks send my new Baby on out to the Northeast Coast now? :-)

You got it, LTD ME! It needs to finish production first. :smoke:

Cory
 






Does anyone recall how to interpret the numerical codes on the window sticker to determine build date?
 












Thanks, Jarhead

That appears to mean my unit should have been built on Halloween..a scary thought..but I haven't heard any update from Cory....eerie... :eek:
 






Yippee! My current ETA is Nov.15th (still subject to change) NOW I'm starting to get excited!

THANKS,CORY!!!!!:thumbsup:
 






mmmm, window sticker...now if I only knew what it all meant.

Year month day after the the first number
I like to see everyone in the community helping out, JarHead1833; thanks. :thumbsup:

maple39,

The “non-obvious” numbers on the window sticker are internal factory numbers. :)

My tracker shows you’re less than a week away from finishing production. :D

Cory
 






ohhhh, getting closer to production...I feel it in my bones!
 












So, looks like LTD ME and I are both anxiously awaiting our new vehicles...I sure hope to have it before thanksgiving. Much nicer thought of driving to in-laws with child & dogs in this car.
 






:D Exhale....whew....It's HERE! Picked it up last night and what a beauty!
THANK YOU Cory & Gina!! You two are awesome.:thumbsup::salute:

Maple39,
has yours come in yet? You could order the nice Explorer cargo mat from your dealer (for the dogs) so that it gets here about when your X does. You are going to love your new ride!
 






LTD ME: No, my XLT hasn't come in yet. Cory & Gina advised that the 19th was the day, however I went to the dealership last week to ask about timeframe once it arrived (getting remote start installed) and order some other equipment, and was told that after they received the vehicle, it was a 3-5 day turnaround. Apparently, only my salesman can set my sync up for me, they have to "inspect" the vehicle and then send out for the install of remote start....UGH!!! That would mean next week because of the holiday.

Here's the messed up part; when I went to the dealer, they were "too busy to deal with a customer who has already ordered a vehicle"....their words, not mine. Finally when I advised that I just wanted a timeframe, they told me that it was december 17th before I'd get my vehicle and that they would call me when it's ready and they "had time". Being a business owner, I can say that I'd fire, on the spot, any employee to disrespect a customer like that. It's bad enough I went to 4 different dealerships to buy the vehicle because no one would come out to help me. Again, I work for myself, which means I can wear jeans and an ugly baseball cap as my work attire and fancy dress. Apparently they all felt like I was just a punk kid who couldn't buy what i was looking at. Then my wife had to come with me, just so I could get someone to speak with me, they were nice as could be...to her.

Basically, I love the looks and the reports on this vehicle, the customer service of Cory/Gina, but I have to say that I'm skeptical of the service I'm going to get from the dealership(s) around here should something go wrong with the vehicle.

Glad you love your newbie! All the b/s aside, I'm still excited to finally have my own car again. It's been a long several weeks.
 






Maple39,
Sorry about your delay, mine actually came in two days early and the dealer called me when the car carrier arrived on the lot. He asked for a day to inspect, clean it up and install the ordered dealer accessories. So I picked it up on the ETA date that Cory & Gina had given me! They did the sync/my/ride right while we where doing the paperwork AND sucessfully paired both of our cellphones to the vehicle too. Something to be said for for small town Friendly dealerships and a great service manager too! Hope your wait ends soon, I am having too much fun.......;)
