Anybody hear any word on when dealers will have demo trucks for real test drives? The road show rides were fun, but way too short to evaluate the truck other then speed.

I haven't heard anything, but I would guess in the June / July timeframe.

I would hope it's sooner than that. With trucks being built now, I'm sure those will be used for a press pool to get reviews out there. I would hope dealer demo trucks would get built in Feb/March and onto the dealers by April.

Don't count on it. Demo units are typically available for sale at some point and and built at this same time as customer builds. Soooo... every demo unit made delays a customer build.

I think I read that Job 1 (first saleable builds) is planned for sometime in April.
