When do the order banks typically close?

Almost 2 weeks now and mine is still sitting in Dearborn waiting to get on a truck to come 4 hours south. Shipping is by far the worst/longest part, especially when you know it's not even moving.

In the meantime UPS keeps showing up at the house with Mods to keep me entertained.

So yours is being shipped via truck only?

Not sure but I know the banks opened on June 29th (2012) for the 2013s.

That's my understanding from the dealer, and after doing some research online about UPS's setup I think it is accurate.See Slide 7, although I have no way to verify the authenticity of this deck

The lack of train doesn't seem to be helping with delivery speed though, I guess it just waits around until they can fill up a car carrier.

It's been different every year. 2012 order banks closed in September while 2011 order banks closed in Nov.

Keep an eye on this website, it is updated all the time and accurate.

Mine was built on the 18th, but sat waiting for a train until today (1 week). It's headed south now hopefully securely attached to a carriage - last I heard somewhere in IL.

ETA is apparently still April 1st. Yay!
Should be interesting since I am headed out of town on April 2nd.
