    Per @MJonaGS32 's suggestion, I'm hoping to guide the chatter related to lead times, waits, etc out of the Specs and FAQ thread.

    We have a Google Spreadsheet that is open for anyone to edit/comment that is tracking orders, current lead times, etc to give people a way to guess when their Drifter may be done.

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-Adf_gdp2qHn6fBcosQyigwRp7VkawwSyyAHIbQgOh4/edit?usp=sharing

    NOTE:
    If you place an order or deposit on their website, you'll have a "VO-####" number.
    If you place an order over email or the phone, you will likely have just a 4 digit number from their invoicing system.

    Thanks bro! Maybe this will also help the VO guys answering Drifter questions vs wait time questions. :thumbsup:

    Not sure how to update the spreadsheet myself, but I was told they are shooting for 3rd week of December due date (which is next week). I emailed them a few days ago to see if that’s still gonna happen. Still waiting for a response.

    Heading to Baja 2nd week of January, shell or no shell. It would be really convenient to have it by then.

    I'll add you to the spreadsheet, @Bradleydlc
    Are you a short or long bed?
    What options did you order?

    @JasonLee whats your expert opinion on where we’re at in the build process? Has it moved forward at all?

    @Bradleydlc did yours roll off the line?

    I stopped keeping track as I sold my 2nd drifter spot to my best friend, who will be picking up his Nomad in February (VO-158).

    It's DLX son!
    Strange to hear 158 will be done this month, while I haven't even been asked to finalize build details on #166

    It seems like they are starting to pump them out again (according to Instagram). Hopefully your in the next batch @smelly621

    I’ll be there this Wednesday actually. I’ll see if I can squeeze any info out of them.

    Haha you have no idea. I was scheduled for a Thursday installation, but I’m taking Wednesday off work just to get it a day earlier.

    Yah I’m not sure. Those were the only 5 I saw in the shop. Maybe they have another warehouse that I don’t know about. Could be at powder coat maybe?

    Actually now that I think about it I think there was another one off to the side...but no name on it. (Also I’m just going off memory. I woke up at 3am and drove 8 hours straight with very little sleep, plus I was just frothing on mine. So don’t quote me 100%).
