2016 Tracking Thread-image-815705092.jpg

Saw my first 2016 on a lot today... I figured I'd find one, but almost looked past this one cause it was a sport... Granted, it was a SuperCab so maybe that's the reason? Not sure, but I thought I'd share.

Of course if cotus was working I would be refreshing 50 times a day, waiting for something to change. This way I limit myself to 1 update a week. But with build being next week, I might be more of a pest! Lol

Even Etis doesn't give much.

Good luck on your truck delivery tomorrow, Shawn! I hope all goes well and it's everything you expected it to be. Take pictures as soon as you can and share with us envious people that are still waiting. Mine is supposed to be built next Tuesday (11-10) but nothing showing on COTUS or ETIS yet. Will PM Chad again for another weekly update.

Looks like a bunch of us have build dates the next couple weeks. This thread should be very exciting during that time. I know I am new around here, but this is probably the best community I have ever read. Everyone is extremely helpful and very few snarky posts.

Well somewhere from 1:30am and 7:30am EST ETIS updated with the full monte of my truck spec's for those that are chomping at the bit. However, the truck description nearly gave me a heart attack and I quickly checked my window sticker again. Ordered a Screw, however ETIS shows DoubleCab.
No apparent changes from Chad other than same tentative delivery date of 11/17. As expected from other forums members there is no real way to track the truck. Once Jack Cooper Trucking Co takes temporary ownership for transport to the dealer its def the last ring of hell. Hearing that built trucks ship sometimes same day so unsure how long it's been enroute.
Come on COTUS.

Side note: Does anyone get excited when dropping in the VIN or Order info in Cotus and the site flickers as if it's gonna work, then a java error occurs? :P

Thanks!! I'll believe it when I see it!! Not thinking I can take delivery until Monday.. I have 2 small kids and a husband that works this weekend.. Sooooo, we will see. If they call I'll definitely be doing a drive by though!! Dealership is 3 miles down the road!! I told them that if it comes early that they can display it for a fee (ha!). Thanks again & I'll keep everyone posted!!

I just PM'd Chad the first time myself to find out when my build is.
Otherwise I'd just be sitting here in the dark...

Fingers crossed for ya! Hope to see pictures soon.

Still sitting in the dark over here in Nebraska, contemplating a drive to Michigan to see if it's truly in the train station.
