Keep in mind when you order the ship date is the estimated build date. If all goes well and it zips thdough the plant with no problems and there is a train waiting to go to CT you may get it before end of June.

Hope so!

that would give the guys over 3 weeks to get your order built. Having no optics into what the backlog might be, that does seem like a reasonable time to me. I am assuming that new dealer orders (for inventory) have fallen significantly as they need to clear current inventory. So, even with just one shift, they might be able to get yours built in nearly a month.

I have a feeling that once the plant opens up and starts moving, these tentative build/ship dates will shift forward. Maybe I’m being optimistic but if like mine, the tentative build dates were made during the shutdown which means it’s possible. Or there’s just a ton of orders made before the shutdown. maybe Marlon can give some insight on speed once the line starts moving.

At the beginning they will be making half per day of what they did before shutdown because only doing one shift instead of two. Also, there has been a backlog of orders to start out instead of the daily orders during production.

I’ll just be over here in the corner with my optimism.

I'm not going back until June (and I still haven't received my official call), so I'll let you guys know if I hear anything about how the line is running. :CWL:

Terrific! hoping that you can get back to work sooner! I’m assuming that you would be working a second shift? Maybe that’s why you are having a delayed start?

Looks like the plants will be running at about 25-33% capacity until the end of June, guys. Due to the retiming and reorganization of jobs, etc, ramp-up will be very slow. So expect delays with your orders.
