    Well, I’m starting this thread since the mods on TacomaWorld decided to lockdown the best thread for on-going news about Vagabond. Why? No idea. Don’t ban me or delete this, we NEED a forum style area where we can discuss these issues. Facebook is not the place for this.

    Anywho, to continue this where we left off, all of us are left in the dark with no communication. I can report as of yesterday that campers are being worked on, with the biggest holds ups being:

    1. Windows
    2. Tent material
    3. Mattresses

    The biggest problem we have run into is communication. I am #TeamVagabond until the very end. Phil is good people, trust me on that, but this experience for most has been negative just because of lack of communication and how long it has taken.

    Supply chain is still an issue for them, as stated before. Hopefully this improves, but as of now, no other news to update with.

    Hooray! Hopefully they won’t ban me from this thread like the previous one :rofl:

    I’m always curious how a company could be short on items that are used on all of their products like mattresses and tents but it is what it is at this point. Thanks for the update!

    All I can say is thanks @socalexpeditions

    I'd like to express that, regardless of anyone's thoughts on VO, a TacomaWorld thread is something that we really were depending on not only for connecting with one another to share build camper ideas, but for honestly just staying sane with the process.

    Kinda thought that my last source of info updates was gone. So. Thanks.

    ...too much shit to list.
    Let me make this very clear. You can certainly use this for a Vendor/product review, but the ongoing nonsense of conspiracy theories, scams, vendor updates, "news," supply chain, complaints, and the non stop flood of reports TW has received about Vagabond ARE DONE.

    TW has made it's position and stance clear. This isn't a Vagabond forum, this a privately owned Toyota forum and all the Vagabond issues can be taken to another platform off TW. The vendor refused to update communication to the customers, the masses could not play nice, and the incessant reports about Vagabond went well beyond what TW will tolerate as discussions on this platform. This is the same reason that politics, religion, etc. are no longer allowed on TW. You can still feel free to make a build thread and talk all you want about your build, post a drifter for sale in BST, or post a Vendor review. However, if you are expecting another thread like the "When will i get my drifter thread," the thread will be locked and/or deleted and the OP may be held accountable.
