I just got moved up to this week!
As of Friday the 13th, I was still scheduled to be built the week of May 23. I called this morning and the ERL went into future mode and told me that As of 5/19, I am locked in for production this week.
Unexpected, but certainly not unappreciated.
Finally, I'm getting close. :bang:

ERL decided to not say locked in anymore. But it appears that this is normal for folks going into their production week. My build day isn't until Wednesday so I'll leave ERL alone until tomorrow evening

How do you guys know which day your car will be built? The ERL says my build week is May 16th as well, but I didn't hear a specific day that it will be built, just the week of May 16th...

Just guessing, sort of! From what some people have said, when the RL says "as of 5/17, your unit is scheduled to be built the week of 5/16", your order is supposed to start down the line on 5/17. I don't know this to be fact though

Can anyone out there confirm this?

The next thing you will hear is something like "Shipped to Convey Carrier" or "Shipped Via Rail Carrier". The ERL will not tell you the day the car is built.

Did the ERL say "As of 18 or 19 or 20 May" your car is scheduled to be built the week of 16 May? If so, then the date is the day your car will be built in that week. Like the 18th or 19th or 20th.

This is what I heard... ERL told me as of May 18th your car wil be... yada, yada, yada.

So today is the birth of my Pony!

Also, it is possible that ERL updates your status to "bucked" if your car was just put on the line during the Thursday update. I was going to ask if anyone that already has their car built with access to URL got any updates besides "Your car is produced" or "Shipped via" during the week before the Thursday update?

Mine was always as of the week April 11 th your unit is scheduled for production, then the week after that it changed to you car was shipped April 18th via rail carrier.

I finally got mine May 6th. Seemed like it took forever. I called the dealer manager so much that he had my VIN memorized.

Excellent taste in colors/combos!

My car was built on April 15th. The ERL said "as of April 15th, your vehicle is scheduled to be built the week of April 11th." I got mine 10 days after the build date. I hope you enjoy the same quick turnaround!
