    Quality Control Delays!!

    i took it to mean the opposite..... still under qc hold .....not shipping...... just changing the status on the computer to make those still stuck in port feel better. But thats just my interpretation. But mines out of the port so what do I know =)

    Quality Control Delays!!

    UPDATE From my dealer a minute ago............... So got an update from my GM today. The ones at port are not coming out of QC they are just actually being swapped over in system to freight with QC tag versus still showing A status and sitting at port. Mine finished processing through the...

    When it finally processes you get an updated window sticker. Mine showed the PIO options dropped just before it got put on a train.

    Quality Control Delays!!

    Mine was due at the dealer the day after the QC hold was announced. I am assuming mine has been sitting in the train yard for the last 2 weeks waiting to be cleared hopefully. TBounds is picking his up in TN which is where I am too so fingers crossed maybe tomorrow at some point some members...

    Train spotting our QC delays??

    I see some of our members are familiar with the various shipping ports and have spotted and photo'd them sitting and waiting. Just curious if anyone knows anything about the rail system. I have a FE that left Portland 4 weeks ago, Delivery was supposed to be last week so I am assuming its...

    First Edition Mudflaps

    Thats a picture of the rear mud flap. The First edition "FRONT" mud flaps have the same metal detail and the same strap just like the rear but they DO NOT say First Edition.

    Contract Before Arrival

    I signed a contract/reservation, said contract gives me a 3 day hold to decide on purchase once the vehicle arrives at the dealership.

    Who is paying over MSRP?

    If they are even willing to sell to you. 2 hrs from me in the same state (TN) and they told me to pound sand, I am not in their market. They kindly referred me to the Toyota dealer in my town that has them at $20k over MSRP.

    Thanks I saw a LC in person and it seemed smaller but next to an FJ the LC looks bigger than my first impression. Thank you!!

    Does VIN number impact delivery date, options available, or QC status?

    That seems odd, my spec sheet and the sticker prior to processing had the same VIN, then when it processed and a new sticker was generated it had the same VIN again just seemed to have dropped the PIO installed air filter due to a shortage.

    Does VIN number impact delivery date, options available, or QC status?

    for what its worth mine (FE) is also a low vin 651 and sat in the Portland port from April 3rd to April 28th when it was processed and put on a train. Due date was this week may 20-25th but now on QC hold I am assuming at the train yard. My 1st sticker said it had a PIO Toyota air filter, 2nd...

    Custom License plate ideas

    I ordered one that will likely be ready before I have my LC and I'd be a total poser if I put it on my 2wd FJ lol.
