Delivery Delays

[gnirwin]

mine was built in February and delivered to PA. along salty roads. I bought mine the following year as a leftover model. The salt did a number on the frame as the unit sat unattended for over a year. lots of surface rust and because of this I was able to talk even more off the price. I sandblasted the frame , axle etc and painted on a rust inhibitor and then undercoated the whole thing. it was a pretty big job . take this as a warning. get under the rig as soon as possible and get the salt off, hopefully you won't have much.

Looks more like April may be the real delivery date. I really appreciate the advice, thank you and sorry for the delayed response.

Our Mobile suite was built after 2/15 and is a 16 so the op may get a 18.

Thanks for the correction, you are right. Writing something in 2016 it was hard to think how quickly the '18s would go into production.

It'll be a 17 in the Augusta world.
