No it still says in production.

You sure it’s the right one? Did you check the VIN?

At this point I don't care it's going home with me haha.

@bobrosco what are you planning for your charging setup?

I just bought a Lectron 48A adapter to use with my existing wall chargers.

I'm going to try to build a boom as well, just picked up some tool balancers. Hopefully DIY a setup that does this:

Wait....You have to charge this thing?

This is my first EV, so I'm planning to use the FCSP at 80amps (We have 320A service, 2 x 200A panels). I have looked at the balancers some, but I'm going to live with the truck in my garage for a little while first to see where it makes the most sense to install. I, fortunately, already have a 50A 14-50R in the middle of the garage to use, but plan to run a separate dedicated 100A for the charger and use the 50A to backfeed (with a transfer switch or interlock) when power goes out.

Nope, I have a 1000 gallon underground diesel tank. I'm going to build it for my fuel hose....

Did they tell you it was for your satisfaction? If so, at least you’ll be extremely satisfied when it comes

I traced my CN Tracking number again today. It told me it left Blue Island for Minneapolis at 4 am this morning. Hopefully my truck was on this train.

How upset would you be if you were tracking a railcar that no longer had your truck in it?

I keep my expectations low so I'll be pleasantly surprised. By extending the date out, maybe they'll deliver early now

Amateur move. They set you up for even a bigger disappointment then
