    I have been waiting for almost 2 months for new trucks to come in. A few have trickled in...but not enough for then to get down the list to me.

    Anyone else?

    Yes, I'm on the list also. But still haven't made up my mind to fully commit to it yet.

    Curious, why are you waiting for a "new" truck. They have plenty of trucks that were leased and came back within 6 months. You may be able to save some money compared to new and the lease term will be shorter. Just asking??

    No they do not. I have been looking for any truck in the system for months. No used / No new.

    Only reason I'm waiting is I haven't fully decided to make the commitment yet.
