Anyone knows Production Schedule?

Waiting on my order

I ordered a Ltd, ATP in Blue/Cinnamon back in mid-Jan. Checked on status and the sales manager at the dealer here in San Antonio said it was a full custom order. I don't get that because you can build the same config on Toyota's website. He said that it would probably be April/May delivery! :frown I hope his information is wrong, because that sounds way too long.

The Gulf states region usually only has two or three Ltd's showing up in inventory (since I've been checking almost daily since early Jan).

Wow I guess we got lucky with our order. Placed it on Jan.9th for the LTD HYBRID TECH Blizzard Pearl with Cinnamon interior and picked it up on Jan.30th. They said when we placed the order that it was on the train from Vancouver to Toronto, they also mention that now the wait time is 3 months.

Ouch! Three months? That steel plant explosion definitely is affecting the Hybrid output significantly.

At least you have some. In the entire state of NM there hasn't been a single hybrid for a couple weeks and none on the horizon. My Limited has been sitting on the docks in L.A. since last week with no movement. Colorado has had plenty, as has Arizona and they are mostly Limited. Maybe you need to get on the phone?

Did you take advantage of the Aeroplan points deal? If so, have you gotten the points yet?

Yes I did give my Aeroplan number to them and checked a few days ago to see if they where there yet but nope. Talked to sales guy and he said Toyota head office submits to Aeroplan so it can take up to 4 weeks to see them, wish it was faster...need a vacation already!!

My order

Just found out the dealer through whom I ordered thinks that the Limited Blue/Cinnamon is not an available configuration, but custom. Sheesh!

Long wait...

I ordered a RAV4 ("black mica") hybrid with black interior last week and sold my 2013 Auris ("dark steel mica") hybrid. I got an estimated delivery in May.

That's false. I don't know who told you that but my friend is a Sales Manager for Toyota and he told me last week there was at least 1 in NM on a dealer lot. Because I was contemplating driving from San Antonio to get it.

What dealership? Just curious because I moved past Red McCombs (who I bought my Highlander from) and onto NP Toyota.

There's a dealer in Houston that has that exact combo in stock on their lot (at least it was available as of last Friday) No Advance Tech package though.

There was one super white XLE for about 48 hrs. You would have wasted a trip. Seriously, don't believe anything that you're not looking at in person. The online inventories are not reliable. Being a sales manager doesn't give you super powers. Unless you're talking to someone who is actually LOOKING at the car, its not there.

It was a limited model. Being a SM does give you access to realtime sales inventory systems. Any joe blow can go to the Toyota website and find stock. That's not accurate.

If you say so....

I've actually been on the lots. It wasn't there. There is one showing for one dealer, but its being held for damage assessment at the shipping yard and nobody has seen it.

As I said, it was a limited model on the dealer lot. Obviously my friend would not know if the car was marked as "sold", "damaged" or anything else, but the real time inventory system had it marked as being on a lot.

There's a lot of dealers in NM? You physically went to every one? That seems like alot of work to locate one car.
