That is awesome! Congratulations!!
For everyone who has not gotten their truck yet and has heard "it will be worth the wait" - BELIEVE IT. This truck is AWESOME! I know very well how hard it is to wait, but it will be worth it once you finally get to drive your truck.

Congrats! Enjoy the ride. It is worth the wait. Just curious why your truck had 26 miles on it at delivery? Mine only had 5 miles and I've seen others with less than that.

Have no idea - maybe the dealership took it for a ride? I've had new vehicles with anywhere from 6 to almost 100 miles on them. I know some people had a sticker inside saying someone from the factory took it for a random test drive, but I didn't see that in my truck, so......

I'm loving every minute of driving it - although I'm still learning how some things work.

So it will be in Phoenix tomorrow like mine. Hope it gets moved to dealer quickly. My situation:

8 days to get from Illinois to Phoenix (1700 miles)
7 days and counting to get it from Phoenix to Scottsdale (15 miles)
This has now become a comedy/tragedy. Just heard this morning the reason for delay from rail yard to dealer is the truck has been damaged. Waiting to hear where/how much damage. Fingers crossed its not major.
Meanwhile tracker, after counting down to 1, has now increased a day since Saturday. Now showing 3 days to delivery.

My truck was kicked off the train 20 miles from my house, but 40 miles from the dealership. Another train will pick it tomorrow to go to the last train yard. Then it will wait to be trucked to the dealership.

I order it on 11/13

This is karma. I must have under tipped a waitress somewhere years ago, and this is my payback.

I think the tracker must have an absolute value on the "days to delivery" - so it really would be -3 days, but they remove the negative so it will just keep increasing until they modify the estimated delivery. Seems like they should have some logic to re-figure ETA if you are 0 days to delivery and not delivered - or something like that.

Sorry to hear about the damage - hope it is minor.

Sorry to hear this, fingers crossed it's only a scratch.

Sometimes they are driven from the plant to the rail yard. That might be it.

That would make sense, since we know it shipped from the rail yard in Woodhaven.
