Nice choice, I enjoyed my rental of one. Let us know what you are seeing for MPG. My impression was that its pretty good.

@Camshaft_Chris I asked, it wasn't an option.

@e90m3 someone just got to the "EX" part of their word-of-the-day calendar. First "extant" now "expeditious."

@pyroholtz I plan to keep it, so anything would be in addition and replace the E92. We need to see where we are in the future, and I don't anticipate getting myself a car this year.

@pip-bip said in Hurry up:

@e90m3 you don't want them to rush it as that may cause them to build it crappily

Yeah, the last thing you need to do is call the factory and tell them to hurry up, especially on a Friday afternoon when the weekend shift is about to come in.

They might even spit in your seat padding. Hope you tipped well!

@e90m3 said in It's like the dominos pizza tracker, only more exciting:

@john-norris Correct, built 10 miles from the house. Sadly, I have to work and I don't think they'd let me in to watch. I did ask if I could pick it up at the factory, and was told no, sadly.

Gotta make that $900 destination fee, yo!

I felt this way when we bought our Odyssey (built 30 miles away) and will feel this way if I buy a Santa Fe (built 80 miles away). Total coincidence, since local builds are not part of my buying criteria.

I also don't understand why factory delivery of "everyday cars" isn't a thing. Seems like an excellent way to build brand equity with motivated customers and help them save on some transport costs along the way.

/sorry lincoln, notsorry

@HFV-now-with-more-H Not at all. I think they gave us an upcoming production slot, so that probably also helps.
