Oh man that is great news. That might mean it was unloaded at the rail yard. Can’t wait for both of us to get our trucks. Still pulling for the ones we left behind
That sucks. My PB made it from Michigan to Dallas in less than a week.
Just curious if you know what the rebates where?
Jesus. That took awhile! So stoked that you are finally built man!I HAVE BEEN BUILT!!!!!!!? ? ? ? ? ? ?
i wasn't sure it was ever going to happen. Wow.
Thanks man! I'm pretty sure I squealed when the tracker showed the check mark in production. I checked last night and it was 152 days. I was getting low. Now I really get to think about accessories, a leveling kit and a tonneau cover. I am so excited.
I am so excited for you! This is such great news
HA! The bed cover. I have gone back and forth about a hundred times. I think I have it whittled down to an ARE Topper (where I am leaning now) or a Renegade tri fold. Diamondback was also a consideration, but I was never able to see one to answer some questions I have. The overland expo east was here in Virginia in Oct but when I spoke with Diamondback they were bringing 2 to the show but had them loaded up with racks and sleepers. I would not be able to actually fully open and use the Diamondback to put it through its paces. This was a disappointment to me. I spoke with them and they were great to speak with, but still I could not get specific answers to questions I had.
All I have done since my truck shipped is look at tonneau covers and I can’t make up my mind. I don’t want a cheap soft roll up. It is driving me crazy. I can’t decide.
I thought about the Diamondback. I think it's pretty cool. My buddy has one on his Denali HD. It is the real deal, no doubt about it. It can hold a side-by-side on top. But it folds in two pieces with the bar in the middle. I don't have a need for an ATV, so I changed my mind on it. I'm going with the Retrax Pro XR. The cost is not insignificant, it's a $2k. It takes up valuable space on the back of the short bed, but it rolls away and locks wherever you want. So if I do find something tall, just roll it back. I can use the tracks to put a rack or basket on top if needed. (I haven't thought about it too much.) LOL
Fantastic. Great newsI HAVE BEEN BUILT!!!!!!!? ? ? ? ? ? ?
I wasn't sure it was ever going to happen. Wow.
That Retrax Pro was the first thing I started with and it is fantastic IMO. If I had the 6.5 bed it would be a no brainer for me and I would get it. However I too have the 5.5 and I just cannot give that extra space away. It probably would not come into play for 95% of the time but coming from a 6 foot bed already, it would be tough to go with a 4.5. Other than that though, it checks all the boxes.
Any update on your trucks location today? I'm tempted to drive over the the railyard where I think mine may be parked just to see a glimpse of it@Meathead. Still on the move! Just outside of flagstaff, Arizona. Do you know where you are at?
