status quo for orders

As a general rule, what would most of you say the normal time frame is on Forest river factory direct purchases? I'm just trying to figure out if my time period has been normal. 13 weeks so far, the unit is at the dealership for prepping maybe another week for delivery?

Aren't we talking about two different things here? You say "Forest river factory direct purchases." and then you go on to speaking about the time your unit has been at the dealership.

As far as I know - only an authorized dealer can order a RV from the factory. The time that your unit is at the dealers after delivery is sometning entirely different and out of control by the factory.

We ordered ours on April 10th, & picked up at the dealer on July 3rd. Looks like 12 weeks, our dealer made a special effort to go pick up on June 28th-29th & had it at dealership Saturday morning the 30th of June, they immediately started their prep & inspection finishing up & cleaned Tuesday the 3rd of July, installed hitch the 3rd of July and had us on way to reserved campsite that day. Only a couple or 3 small items to take back & have fixed after camping season.....THANK YOU VERY MUCH: H & K CAMPERS COLUMBUS KS & CARL FOGELMAN.

Took about 12 weeks with the full paint option which I was told added 3-4 weeks to a standard white order.
