Read an article last night saying that a couple of the auto makers as well as others are saying the supply chain issues are getting worse again, not better, and the price of diesel and inflation in general is making it even worse.
The Chevrolet dealership about a 5 minute drive from my house could barley get any new trucks on the lot, maybe 3-5 at any given time. The whole lot is nothing but used trade in vehicles now. It’s basically been like that for a solid year maybe. If you go another 20 minutes down the road and go to the Jeep/Dodge dealership the entire lot is full of hundreds of Grand Cherokees, Wranglers and a handful of Gladiators. So I guess the point I’m making is it seems like FCA sucked up all the chips while other manufacturers sit idle or running at a slow rate.

Hmmm. Ok. Could be another stupid chip thing. I still don't understand how there could be a chip shortage.
Its affecting everything. Key fobs, misc car functions. Im looking to purchase a new trolling motor and some of them now have missing features, if they're in stock at all.

Karl Chevrolet, one of the largest Chevy dealers around, acres of cars and trucks - until 2021 that is. Now they strategically place new and used vehicles around to make it look fuller. Some Jeep dealers here aren't doing too bad, but one of the larger ones told me they are placing anything and everything around the lot to make it look busy and full - including auction vehicles and rentals.

I'm trying hard not to be impatient but its not easy when I know my truck is built and has been sitting for a month. I'm being told by my dealer the status is KZ S and the estimated ship date is still 4/8. The list of order codes I've seen does not include a KZS , does anyone know that code?
Update - Never mind found it on another thread. Shipping storage... sssooo annoying....

Here is my order history:
