Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

As of today, looks to be only 20 produced thus far for April. I ordered mine on Oct. 5th & was told 6-9 months. I'm in no hurry so the wait time doesn't matter to me. I would rather have the 2023 with the new dash and lights.

Did they call you to let you know that the order was off the assembly line or was failcat the way you found out?
I had seen it and figured it was mine. They called me soon after. Today I got a call, ETA moved back 1 week to May 6th..
Oh well…

So I contacted my sales guy and he all of a sudden had an ETA. He told me that the ETA is 9/14. To me this sounds like BS and just a “leave me the f**k alone” answer. He of course cannot give an ETA without a VIN number correct. So if you ordered yours on 9/1 and got your in may (assuming that you still got it) how my order that was placed 12 days later is taking 4 more months… did someone forget to place it and not tell me? Just super frustrated at this point and really want some answers.
I am remiss -
I did pick it up on 5/7. It's really cool. The black copper is - pretty close to black - unless there's light shining on it. The interior is spectacular, and the "this thing is really well thought out" factor is still there.
They have been pretty straightforward, and I heard another salesman tell folks on the phone something to the effect of "We're not taking any new orders on Tellurides because they're more than a year out."
But - yea, it does sound off your relationship between order time and ETA. One would expect that the times are increasing but not by that much.

I will be calling the sales manager this evening to see what more information that they can give me as to why 12 days = 4 month delivery difference
Not yet; they have moved the ETA up to 7/16 but still haven’t seen it pop up on failcat yet so I’m expecting that date to be pushed back
Ordered 10/25 and nothing yet. Spoke with Sales Rep and was given option to continue to wait on 2022 order or be put in line to be able to order a 2023. Haven't decided yet because I want to see a 2023 in person.

I ordered on 10/05/21. SX, N/T/P with some extra items in Wolf Grey. Was told it was picked up in the system mid june, yet to see it on Failcat. I was originally given an ETA of 8/4, then it was pushed back to 8/23. Ill check back at the begining of August.

Was told today by sales rep that my order (10-29) was not picked up and that I would be receiving a 2023. He said it would be here in September. About 8 month wait just to not get the car I ordered (SX Ebony Black, Black Interior w/Nightfall). Now, I wonder what the new black tellurides will look like that aren't X-Pro. I've heard that Nightfall is not an option anymore. Sad day.
Will you be able to change your color choice and options for the 23/MY?

I’m sure that I will be able to. I just love the amber lights and the dark chrome on the 22/MY.

Congrats! Gauging by your order date, it took approximately 10.5 mths. to receive. So if I ordered on 10/25, I'm probably looking at about the first few weeks of September... maybe. I wonder when they will start placing orders for 2023. I've waited this long, I might just wait on a 2023.
