Production Timeline Records

For sure! Based on the 12 weeks in production from my in production email, I wasnt expecting mine until January. “Under promise, over perform” is an aweaome way to run a small business!

Pricking up tomorrow. Although notification was a little late build was extremely fast. There will be a new GFC and several growlers filled to beat the storm home!

Is anyone with a December start date experiencing a delay? I am #1104 and was told in November that I was on track for my December start date, but nothing yet. I was under the impression that production times were speeding up.

I’m a few #'s (1130) behind you and got the following email towards the end of December, so slightly behind but still far ahead of the original expected start of March for me, and quoting shorter times.

As I’m sure you are aware, your camper has an estimated start date set in December 2020. As the year comes to a close, I wanted to let you know your camper’s start date is behind schedule. Plain and simple, your camper is going to start production late.

We’re making some big changes here at the shop, and the end goal is to be able to build campers faster than ever. The way our materials are ordered and processed is changing, as is the assembly process itself. With speedier production comes the ability to schedule installs ahead of time. We’re tired of having to wait until the very last minute to schedule installs, and we’re sure you are too. We want to operate so we can reliably get your install scheduled and on the books when your camper goes into production, rather than when it gets completed while maintaining our high standard of quality.

One more thing, once your camper goes into production, it won’t take 12 weeks from start to finish anymore. That’s too damn long. There’s a lot to learn as these production processes change, but right now our production timeline estimates are going down to 6-8 weeks. That estimate is conservative, and as we see the results of these changes we’ll update you on how short the timeline from start to finish actually is.

I am #1119 and in the same boat here. Just sold my canopy so hoping it’s soon. If I don’t hear anything from them by end of next week I will reach out.

I know unit 1088 shipped so they might be doing the production update on their end starting with with the 1100’s.

Yo yo, I’m in metal town. Haven’t picked camper up yet (trucks pointed North and ready to roll, when it is though). I’m sure you all will be soon. Hang in there!!!
