I asked for a off-the-record guesstimate, but our dealer won't even ballpark it for us, which I think is kind of odd. Wouldn't he know how long it typically takes between offline and delivery?

You ordered yours almost 3 weeks after we ordered ours, Rhyno. We took delivery 9 weeks to the day we ordered, and it would have been longer than that if our dealer didn't send their own truck company to pick ours up. Our dealer told us it would take a week at the most after the offline date to get it delivered, but I assume he knew it would be less than a week because he already knew he would be sending his own driver to go get it. It actually took 3 days. Driver left on a Wednesday and had it to the dealer on Friday. If your dealer is not sending their own truck to get yours, I would guess he cannot give you a delivery date because he has no idea how long it's going to take to get the delivery driver lined up. Good luck! I know the waiting is the hardest part!

Depends on where you are Rhyno. We ordered on 3/9 and were told 8 - 10 weeks. Our build date was 5/19 (10 weeks + 1 day after we ordered) it came out of quality control on 5/20 and was delivered to our dealer on 5/20. But we are only 214 miles from the factory. From what my dealer told me, 1/3 of the delivery drivers have taken their trucks off the road due to high gas prices. So FR may not know in advance who they have available to deliver units.

For me, from order to final pick-up, it was 12 weeks.

11 weeks for us from order to pickup...

- Order date: 3-15-11 (Estimated delivery 6-8 weeks when we signed contract)
- Offline date: 5-17-11
- Delivery date: 6-2-11

The trailer sat for a week in the yard of one of the delivery companies waiting for a driver.

About 6 weeks for ours. I think the dealer gabbed one that they had'nt started on.

Congrats on finally getting the delivery date for your Windjammer, Rhyno! You are going to love it, and it will have been worth the wait once you're finally out at your favorite campground! Have you got a maiden voyage planned???

We're staying the first night at the dealership to make sure all is well, then meeting up with my parents at Mascoutin in Illinois for a few days to camp with them then a leisurely trip back to Kansas City. We can't wait!!!
