Hello bdh, how did the pick up go? Were there any issues that came up during the pick up process?

 

[ArizJB]

Just picked up my BLGT. It was a great ride home, although sometimes the transition between gas and electric can be twitchy.

Ordered in July. Built late Dec.

The trim looks like it all lines up. No obvious large gaps.

One small imperfection on driver side speaker grill, which salesman showed. They’re ordering the part and will replace.

Thanks to "Pete" on the board for advice/help during the buying process. It was a huge help!!

Photos included…if I can figure how to do it. Chroma caviar with Chalet interior. Full Rear Console.

We have an appointment in a week for full tint and XPEL.

 

[lastcall8]

Before and after tint. I dont know why it’s upside down

 

[Big Lebowski]

Very Ariz & Lastcall…upside down or not.

Peter

Yes it does, -55.00. Also does “Enhanced Security System Lite -50.00.” No idea what that is.

Found this in a post by doing a search; "I spoke to the dealer and he found out that they are deleting the intrusion and inclination sensors on the anti theft system".

Where did you get the “released to Body Company” date?

I do not…though I’m still only scheduled to be built next week, how did you get this?

[SteveO$]

I don’t know where to get this date. Hoping you could tell me.

 

[ChuckL]

What jillztom posted is the output of a Vehicle Visibility Report. Your dealer can run such a report at any time. Whether they're willing to do so and then willing to share it with you is a separate question.

Yeah, I asked for one and nope lol

 

[Keane1130]

Hi Keane. No. Just worry about the vehicle itself. Give the vehicle a thorough inspection and test drive/drives. Check the functions and features. If all is well and you like the vehicle, that is all that matters.

On a related side note and personal mini-rant: People need to stop worrying about "Blend dates". Other than it being an administrative date sometime before the actual production date, it means nothing to the buyer.

Keep us updated and good luck.

Finally, I got my 2023 Aviator Reserve, comes with

• 2nd row bench seat
• Exterior black
• Ebony(black) interior
• Equipment Group 201A
• Jet Package
• Illumination Package
• Trailer Package

Because this vehicle is just expected to arrive at the dealer in February and no one has booked it, so I bought it.
Thank you guys. I wouldn't have had such good luck and made a quick decision without the help of all of you, really appreciate it.
