    Knock on wood, Delvac is still $13 a gallon at Walmart here. However they only had 9 gallons on the shelf. TSC has been sold out.

    Been waiting since the summer. Delay after delay. We also put in a deposit and I think they're being fishy.
    Anyone know if there's recourse in getting a deposit back?

    Depends on what you signed. Most are none refundable. What and who did you order?

    Good news... I got a text from my dealer saying the 2nd truck is out of parts shortage lockup. Should be able to pickup at the factory before end of year and get it in this years taxes which was a big goal of mine.

    We shall see in the next week or so!
     
    Oxbow, Speed_Drums, Lostkeys and 5 others Thank this.

    Just have it dropped it Washington PA. I live on 70 east at the north junction of 79. Park it on the ramp and when we walk the dog I will see it from up on the hill. :biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559:

    Heck, might as well. I have no drivers for either truck anyway! This other new one is just collecting dust so far. Ugh..

    Hah! I probably would being that you seem like a good dude but as soon as the truck gets a few thousand miles it probably drops in value by 20 or 30k as it’s no longer a virgin. lol That sounds odd but is the truth of it. Not that I plan on selling them anyway but still.

    I had a customer tell me a couple days ago that he has 4 or 5 additional loads per week going to CA end of next month so I better get some drivers or ops lined up quick.
