Body Shop Duration

[rtfd333]

Super new here and first post but, was hoping to find some info on what people are seeing for durations at the body shop. I’m currently waiting on a FBM that was expected to ship this past Friday, according to the dealer. Over the weekend they updated with it is still at the body shop with no current delivery date. Confused how it was supposed to ship on Friday and now it doesn’t have a date.

Some backstory: I was conflicted on ordering my exact build due to the lengthy process and was content with settling on color. Was about to pull the trigger on a silver RHO when the dealer I was talking to mentioned they have my exact build due to their lot. Put a deposit down to claim it and was hopeful to see it within a couple of weeks, per the dealer. I have no way to track it other than checking with the dealer.

Any insight from the community on how long you think I’ll be waiting?

Build is FBM, level 1, pano roof, bead lock wheels, running boards, bed utility group, tow group, graphics, and tonneau.

Well you got about all the accessories so it's going to depend on how many trucks are ahead of you, that's all the models at sterling heights. Mine was 3 weeks but it was over Christmas. There is no formula really except wait

Fingers crossed it’s only a couple of weeks but the dealer made it sound like it could be any amount of time.

Did some more digging in the community and found a helpful post on how to track it. Was able to pull the attached update. Doesn’t say anything about the body shop, I’m assuming the dealers are able to pull better updates though.

Ya don't rely on that tracker, alot of us that ordered April and May 2024 realized it's not updated continuously. My truck showed up magically in January. Dealer was able to get more accurate times if he is a good salesman

Welcome! The wait can be frustrating, especially when the date changes without explanation. From what I have seen, the passage to the body shop can sometimes take longer than expected, especially with certain options such as the pano roof or the graphics. Your build looks great, it's surely worth the wait! Let us know when you have news.

Thank you! Finally had a little bit of movement earlier this week. The estimated delivery date changed from TBD to 3/17. Hoping there is some level of accuracy in the estimated delivery date but catering my expectations! Dealer made it sound very optimistic it would deliver this month.
