Wow. Sounds like there is little chance of me getting it in time for Mother's Day. All I can do is call frequently and make a nuisance of myself, and maybe they will at least give me a loaner like Truth B Towed suggested. I think the closer I get to end of April the more often I'll call.

It sure can be frustrating when there is so little information available from the dealer/manufacturer. Just try to keep a positive attitude and not let it get you down. Soon you will be sitting back and enjoying your new camper.

We ordered February 19 th and got word yesterday it was going into production and then another message saying off line date should be April 9. 7 weeks and dealer says they'll get it to their lot ASAP and we can pick it up just days after the off line date. I'd say to be persistent, but in a kind way. If you dont get word in the next couple weeks, you can consider your mother's day plans.

We ordered on the 21st so hopefully we'll hear soon also. I don't intend to be a jerk, but feel that the dealer pretty much told me that I would have mine by the beginning of May. So I intend to hold them to that date, and if there are things happening at the factory beyond their control, I'll expect them to do something to make me a satisfied customer.

We signed papers week before Christmas 2013 and didn't get our camper until end of March. I believe the factory closes 1 week for Christmas/New Years.
It is worth the wait to have a camper the way you want it.

I also ordered the last day of February! I was thinking we might pick it up the first or second week of May. I haven't heard anything yet. Keep checking in. We can compare delivery dates. I will pick up in Ohio.

So my Feb. 28th ordered Roo might be a 2016? At what point does it change from a 2015? When they run out of 2015 chassis?

Make that seven I ordered a Rockwood 8310SS on 2/28/15 . Like everyone else didn't hear any news yet .I agree there should be a way to track our units. I was able to track my new truck and it was a nice feeling just to see the progress. Makes the wait just a little better . This is my second new TT order .There was definitely more anticipation on the first one and that took 12 weeks ordered on 2/25/12 missed memorial day weekend. So sit tight and the time will come soon and you will be enjoying your new trailer . HAPPY CAMPING

there is no set "point". it happens when they decide it happens.
usually the new year models will start coming out around this time of year.
but they always can make changes throughout the year.

I ordered a 2015 interior, so maybe that will prevent it from being a 2016?

I am seeing 2016 Roos on dealer websites so pretty sure we will end up with 16's. Hickory floor and metropolitan here.

So then when a dealer calls "Willow" a 2015 interior, it's not dedicated to every 2015? Some early 2015s have 2014 interiors, and some 2015s could have either 2015 or 2016 interior choices late in the 2015 production season?

No that's not right, they continue the old interiors for a while into the new model production year......
