Anyone else experiencing this? I placed an order on 10/12/21 and it still has not been filled yet. Original ETA of 3-5 months is now "we're telling customers is 6-8 months from deposit date. we are still waiting for orders to get filled to determine an average wait time" with the ownership change.

6-8 months for new deposits or new and existing?

Seems like both if the order has not been filled yet but I'll double check. I'm already pushing 3 months and was told it's roughly another 90 days after it's filled to reach the dealership.

Thanks. We ordered from i25 two weeks after you on Oct 30. I’m not sure if we can wait another 6 months… 😕

I'm in the same boat. Already looking at other vehicles and probably spending way more than the Telly. 😭
 
What did you order? I recently saw that someone who ordered an S in November got picked up

I ordered SX Glacial White Pearl/Gray. I saw the same thing about people who placed orders the week before me and the week after from i25, who have ETAs for end of Jan. I asked my salesperson and was told it’s dependent on the trim and color.

I ordered a white SX Prestige w/ Nightfall. My understanding is that it's based on trim as well. S orders get filled much faster.

Yea the SX is also more popular. Idk who your person was but they should be able to tell you how many people are in front of you for that trim. Then just look on failcat at how many sx they get a month, and you can use that as a good estimate of when your order will be picked up

I'm #7 in line as of 2 weeks ago and hasn't moved. Then again I was #15 like 1.5 months ago. It's barely moving.
 
@stooken - are you 7 on the list for White SX or 7 on the list for the dealer for any color/trim? I was 40 on the list mid-December. I’m going to ask how many White SX are on list ahead of me. Thanks @ashah491

I didn’t realize - until recently- that trim and color mattered.

It doesn’t move daily. It only changes when KFOS opens up which is usually once a month. At that point a certain number for each trim are picked up. It sounds like they picked up 8 in the last allocation period so hopefully you should get picked up in January and get your car in March.

Didn't say but I emailed for clarification. You have at least 1 white SX in front of you right here. Lol.

Edit: Sales advisor replied and says it's picked up based on order date, first come first serve. Nothing about trim and color when I asked. 🤷‍♂️ Likely untrue if the EX order above on 10/28 has an ETA already.

@stooken - looking back at some older posts, it appears that color definitely comes into play....

@Jrobichaux8 : Ordered i25 on 10/23/21 and received update that eta is 1/28. Gravity Gray SX Prestige NF with Tow
@sr3007 : Ordered on 11/05 at i25. ETA 01/22 Dark Moss SX-P with Dune Brown

Interesting.. it seems like they’re part of the same allocation window tho

I'm tempted to push my sales advisor on this but afraid he's going to screw me over some how.

Picking up another vehicle this weekend and will see how this all plays out. Maybe I can sell my "used" car in 4-6 months for a profit. 😁
 
They have great reviews here and elsewhere online, and they’ve been really nice and super responsive to all my questions. I wouldn’t worry about getting screwed over for asking questions. I’m just obsessed (like so many on here) with getting more concrete data. I’ve read enough posts now to understand that it’s not up to the dealer on how many, or what type of orders can be submitted in a given month. In the absence of concrete data, I’m trying to find "answers" from scouring the posts. When I see the status from other orders at Fowler, they are just more data points that I’m getting closer…

I25 / Fowler is actually one of my local dealers. I plan on getting all my service and maintenance done there.

I have an order date of 10/22/21 at i25. Black SX Nightfall Prestige. I got an update today that I am No.12 in the list for an ETA. I was No 65 when I started in October so about 85% of the way through the list in just over two months.

The sales rep gave me a very rough estimate of March for delivery because I promised not to hold him to it.

It is definitely trending towards the 5 month mark on that 3-5 month estimate we all got in fall 2021.

A little slower than expected, but as others have said, they have been super responsive.

@GeotechDuck - It looks like they get 25-30 SX a month so it's looking pretty good for you and @stooken to get picked up in January... They got ~60 in October, but that looks like an anomaly.

Mid-December, I was at 40, and if that's the list for all trims, I'm crossing my fingers that my order is picked up as well.
