Its is best to just go to the dealership and talk face to face. Ask to speak to the sales manager and iron out any misunderstanding or expectations before you leave.

I'd give them another chance first but if they don't make it a priority to send a simple email then you might consider elsewhere IMO.

Unfortunately a lot of dealerships don't respond all that well to email traffic. Mine was pretty bad about getting back to me 'timely'. It really wasn't until a few days short of delivery that he started communicating better... something to do about having 60+ thousand dollars burning a hole in my pocket.

I mean it's been 30 minutes and still no email. This is a small town dealer. I told them I am trying to support a local dealership but I feel like no one gives a damn.

I havent signed any any papers or did I put down any money to lock in the order so really... I could just walk away.

However i I hate to lose this good deal. I still have all the paper work and all the info they said they would give me on my trade and price I'd agree on etc. I could take this to another dealer and see if they would do the same deal...?

Sometimes it took *days* for my dealer to get back to me. Anything less than 5 hours was a miracle.

Once you have your truck, you'll forget all about this stuff. I promise.

You ordered the truck on 2 Jun, that is very close to the time I ordered mine. I would think your build date would be around the week of 24 July. If you go to another dealer you would be starting all over and you may not be able to place the order because its getting so late in the production year.

according to ETIS your truck was in production this week on 6/26/2017

For some reason your window sticker is restricted

That means your truck is on its way to you now with an ETA of 8 days...

That's not fare at all, I ordered my truck before you and its not going to be build until the middle of July with an EST delivery of 10 Aug.

Are you able to look in the ordering system and see orders for other dealerships or only your own?
Just mine. I can't even see what's inbound to my dealer as courtesy (such as military sales deliveries)
