So Close Yet So Far

After putting down a deposit for a 2020 MGM Tundra TRD Pro, I was initially told it would take 3 months to receive as it was coming fresh from the factory. The next day, the sales rep tells me their system has been wonky and that the new timeframe is 3 weeks. Today was supposed to be the end of the 3 weeks and I had scheduled to leave work 4 hours early tomorrow to go pickup the truck. Ive been calling every day since last Friday just to make sure and while there haven't been any updates to the end date, I received a text this morning that the new date has been pushed to this Friday. Unfortunately I won't be able to come and get it this weekend so if all goes as planned then maybe next Monday or early next week.

My family has a trip to the coast planned the following weekend and it would be nice if the truck was here by then. Anyways, just wanted to vent because I feel like such a disappointed kid right now.

 

Always sucks waiting for the shiny new toys..

 

Worst part is having to wait and that day just never arrives...

 

Its been said that good things come to those who wait, and wait and wait and wait wait...

 

We're heading out on a road trip from CA to ID & WA next Thursday. Getting the 9" floating Pioneer installed before we head out and I've been sweating the arrival of all the installation parts so I feel your pain. Here's hoping it gets here soon. A trip without a new truck would suck!

 

and don't forget the wait and wait some more....

 

Im waiting on a audio system from tech12 and its only been 3 business days but feels like 3 months...

 

You'll be stoked when it arrives...he hooked me up back in January and it's about 10,000x better than the stock garbage. I'm eager to see if the new head unit improves the audio quality any further.

 

yeah , i am still waiting for my dad to come back from the store from getting cigarettes ...

 

dude ahahahaha I seriously just busted out laughing at the office!!!

 

From what I have read it sure will!!! let me know once you set it up how much more it improves.

 

That makes me sad just reading that.

 

Still no truck and the dealership hasnt responded to me. I will pray and cross fingers that this upcoming week is it.

 

That really sucks fingers crossed it arrives this week

 

Mine was due in at the end of July - it got held at the "port" for inspection "which happens sometimes".... we had no new info from 6/25 until 7/16 when it finally dropped at the dealer... I was literally starting to think the truck was a phantom and started looking for other dealer options... picked it up 7/17 and breathed a sigh of relief.

Hope you have a similar experience and the wait is over before you know it!

 

Nice! Yeah the dealer messaged me back today and sounded optimistic there will be an update by end of today and "predicted" it would be there mid-week. What sucks is I will be away Thursdsay thru next tuesday if it doesnt happen by Wednesday.

 

Finally got an update today. If all goes as planned then next Wednesday will be the soonest I can go in and pick it up. Super stoked. Fingers crossed this is it.

 

Finally! Its here! Picked it up today just in time for my beach trip.

 

Gas that thing up and get it moving!

 

Awesome - Congrats!!! Glad you got it before the trip. Enjoy.

 

Congratulations.

 

mods time !! haha

 

Enjoy the new ride on your trip. Congratulations!

 

Back to back Chattanooga posts! Congrats on that new truck smell and feel...!!!
