7/29, it's now 8/20, so... about 3 weeks later. I can believe they can turn an order out in that time frame (Though I didn't do the factory tours so I'm not certain). From what I hear, the biggest wait on a new RV is finding somebody to haul it to ya. If his dealer was close enough to go get it themselves, then it's plausible.

That is a neat unit. I can see that getting through the assembly line quick.
I like the dinette/bunk configuration.

On their website. Most microlites are built to order. We got to pick everything out. Very happy about electric awning. Wife lost that battle

I would suggest doing a search on "awning tie down"
Although these awnings are nice any amount of wind will destroy it.

Nice!! Congrats on the fast delivery.
I too ordered my RV at the end of July. Still no word yet. They said they would call when it came in. Just hoping it comes in before Columbus day as that is basically the end of camper up here in the Northeast.
This driver shortage is really causing headaches for everyone. With the economy booming and everyone working now, it is just hard to get people. 
Vin.
