I think it's all about the delivery center. Captainb8 is taking delivery in Cincinatti, a less grossing delivery center who is probably through their first day reservation holders already. We at Tyson's most likely have a longer list of early reservation holders to get through before it gets to us mid 2017 reservation holders.
Explain this one.. I’m picking up in Cincinnati. I ordered early July and have had a VIN for a week with zero contact from an IDA... so no delivery date.
So it definitely is weird whatever system they are using.
