I am trying to figure out why some orders are getting VIN #'s and getting to production sooner than others. I have started collecting some data to see what may be delaying some orders. So far it seems like color choice (Launch Avail Colors) seem to have a big impact, but would like to break it down a little further.

Could you post the follow information on your order, and maybe we can come to a conclusion to what may be the hold up is on some orders. Thanks!

Order Date:
VIN assigned: (Yes or no, if Yes then provide Date)
Estimated Ship Date: (If Applies)
Gladiator Model:
Color:
Steel Bumper: Y/N
LED's: Y/N
8.4 in Radio: Y/N
Top Selected:
Black Upgraded Wheels: Y/N
Manual or Auto:

I'll post a spreadsheet once I get enough data

Looking at the Google Doc, I wonder if it the 7.0" Screen holding up some of them? I also opted for the bedliner, aux switches, and floormats, just in case any of those were the issue.

It really looks like to me the Steel Bumper is the issue. I don't see any Non LE's with a Steel Bumper that has a VIN assigned.

Just to add to that my dealer called me on Saturday to tell me that the Billet Silver was delaying me. I think they are wrong, and it's the bumper...
