Well to make a long story as short as possible, I just got back from BD Dyno Days, but on my way to BD on Friday I talked with my dealer and the Regional Rep. Both told me that all the Diesels orders have been rejected by DCX. That included 9 pre-sold trucks including mine! I confirmed that with DCX, my order was at BX last time I checked and now it does not have a status assigned to it. The Factory Rep said that DC was slowing the production on the Diesels down for and early release of the "NEW" EPA engine. I explained that I don't want the NEW engine. The Rep told me that I have 2 choices, I could either wait and see if my order is picked up in the November allocation, (which he could not guaranty) and see what engine was allocated to that VIN number, he then informed me that either DC or the Shippers, (I was a bit upset and I can't remember which one) take 2 weeks off for Thanksgiving and 2 weeks off for Christmas so I wouldn't see the truck until January or maybe February! My other option is to have my dealer do a search and try and find one that was already built that I would accept.
I tried to call my dealer after my conversation with the Rep and my salesman was out for the rest of the day! I called on Saturday Morning from BD, and he didn't get in till after 1:00 in the afternoon. I left several messages and he finally called me back about 4:00 that afternoon! I told him to do a search and find out what was available. He said that it was too late on Saturday, he was off on Monday, and he would not be able to do a search until Tuesday!
This is the PITS! The first time I have ever order a vehicle exactly what I wanted! What a bad experience!
DC had the order on my truck on September 22.
