I don't want to pester, but I wish that they would let me know how long it will take to put everything together.....
Like you said at least 2 weeks, the dealer still needs to install any dealer installed items, work you unit into their schedule etc. I am sure they are not going to call you until they are close to being delivery ready although I have had my salesperson inform me it was in and how long to expect. I suspect them to stay mum as long as possible just to keep customers from bugging them, there are just too many people out there that go me, me, me mine, mine mine, I should be first and on and on and on. Not insinuating you as one of those people just saying it is something dealers have to deal with.

Great story! We went to Florida in the spring & when we got home our 2016 2604 Emerald edition was at the dealers. We tow it with a Ram 1500 with no problem. We have been camping 3 times this summer - the last time for 3 weeks, and we love it. Fantastic layout. The only issue is the pull out couch - not comfortable. We will get a memory foam topper for it. Enjoy your trailer.

What a neat story. We looked at the 2604 but dealer had our 2819 Windjammer with bigger discount.
Have fun and enjoy new trailer.

The 2819 was on our short list, it's a great floor plan!

Nice rig.
I'd stop by the dealer and start looking around at all the other RV's in the lot and if they ask how your doing say your just looking around and might change your mind on your RV for a bigger different model. LOL That will get them in gear a little quicker to get yours ready. LOL It will work as long as you haven't signed on the line yet. Puts them in gear to get it ready. Hey during your PDI make sure those A/C units work good. Good luck and Happy Camping you'll love it. Congrats

Like they say, the waiting is the hardest part. It's killing us that it's sitting at the dealer 150 miles away, and we can't get it, yet. To make matted worse, our schedule is so tight that we might have to wait another week past when the dealer has it ready!

I know what you mean. I have been waiting 6 weeks for the dealer to let me know when a couple of parts for the lite get in.

Called them a couple of days ago just to shake the tree a bit will call again first of the week.

I dislike waiting......
