Does this sound suspicious?
On Saturday, the dealer calls me to say I should get my truck the week of the 5th. Yesterday he calls me to tell me he was wrong (and answer another question) and that I'll see the truck the week of the 12th. Today (2/6) VOPC tells me the truck is at the ramp, which I believe means it has arrived at its railway destination, somewhere in Denver.
With all the notes going around right now about new truck damage enroute, perhaps the dealer is buying time to fix something?
Denver to Boulder is 1hr, tops, so being it is Tuesday, I would think I could easily pick up the truck on Saturday, if not before.

Brossman,
I don't know about the suspicious part. So your truck dealer said "the week of 12th" which is odd in a way. At first my dealer told me the ETA was FEB 19th (as of Jan 24th) then yesterday I called the dealer .. he said ETA would be 21st of FEB. Now I wonder if the dealer need time to wash it, inspect it , look over it whatever they are supposed to do? As for your truck to arrive in Denver by rail, will there be a large or small fleet of trucks to sort it out? They will need to load your new Screw on one of those 18 wheel truck that hauls vehicles to the dealer place. Not sure how long it will take to sort out which truck(s) will go to which dealers in the Denver-wide area. Just a thought to share. So are you thinking about picking up your truck on Saturday, the 17th?
