Make your list of questions and call the dealer. Talk to the top dog not your salesman. Let him know your frustration. Then tell him "Heres my list of questions I want answered. I will come in one week from today and expect either the answers or a re-fund check in full. At that point you can cancel my order." Money talks and BS walks. Never, ever be afraid to walk out on a deal. It's the only leverage you have.

Good luck. Let us know how it turns out.

Thanks for the advice but I have talked to the owner of the dealership in person, listened into his phone calls, vmails left and been given copies of his sent and answered emails. Its why I am upset as he even supplied me a few numbers. Its not the dealer and he will give me my deposit back. He sells Ranger and said they are being the same right now. There is just something that isnt normal, but what is in this year of 202?. Even the media team for Triton is inquiring and getting no where at the factory production level. Maybe they moved production? Moved HQ? I now see the website gives a number to Springfield which is white river marine group. So I guess maybe its due to COVID, moving something elsewhere, back orders etc. I am going to wait awhile go bowhunting duckhunting and not think about it until Dec 1st. If anything happens I will post the outcome.
Thanks everyone.

The link was a picture of my triton sitting on a semi trailor being delivered, but it failed. Look like pictures are pretty limited for posts.



Thought it would cheer up Bghunter.

Was in the same situation back in 2015 with my Ranger, everything was ready but the kicker was actually sold out. My dealer gave me an option of taking it without the kicker, which I did. The "new" kicker was actually a 2016 model and for what it's worth the 2015's were dark blue but the 2016's were black and matched the boat better. The kicker came in and the dealer mounted it.

I had the option take home too, but it's a 2 hr drive and motor was supposed to be in mid September. Well here i am still. Could have originally had at end of August. I'm still putting her in this year whenever that time comes to break in the kicker before winter. It's going to be on like Donkey Kong this spring though!! Lol
