I was told by RDS in PA that at least one Chicago customer is trying to switch to them; willing to drive all the way to the outskirts of Philly!

Incorrect, call Ineos UK, and they can move you around. They offered it to me on Friday 11/17/23, but I decided to give my dealer another chance. They seem to have a good heart, they just are only contacting people as their cars come in. So if you have a VIN they chat with you, if not, it’s radio silence. I prefer Regals method of mass communication, it helps placate people’s anxieties, goes a long way to keep people’s minds at ease, and keeps the customer engaged and interested for the long haul until delivery actually happens.
100% agree…The dealer experience has me wavering on something I’ve wanted for the last two years. More communication would really help.Incorrect, call Ineos UK, and they can move you around.

Despite this, my allocated dealer has been great if/when you can actually reach them. Knauz Ineos of Chicago, just send a damn email to all the reservation holders. It will make you look good, and costs you nothing! If Regal/Sewell/etc… can do it, so can you!
My greatest concern with the lack of communication from dealer groups is two fold, 1. People are left in the dark, 2. It increases the probability of people dropping out. We want to get these cars delivered, at near a rate of 100% as possible (i.e. zero cancellations). Certainly, Retention-Rate is a metric that Ineos Corporate will be using to grade dealers, amongst other metrics
Awesome, I'll give them a call tomorrow or Wednesday as the US side told me I was stuck with my current dealer
I'm going to be reaching out tomorrow to iron out some things
those were people that had the early orders at the early pricing and before the software fixes. I’ll be completely shocked if I see these going under MSRP in the states. With what people pay here for jeeps and g-wagons there will be a segment that’s going to really want these and not want to wait in line. The same people that pay $20k over MSRP for a raptor. The Houston/Dallas crowd will be begging to buy it.
I would not look at UK Autotrader, as a good deal seem to be "Commerical" Station Wagons, which are limited to what roads/speeds they can go on/at, something totally foreign to US residents where as long it's registered/passes inspection, you can pretty much driver it anywhere.
NAS speck does not have blind spot monitoring-it has lane assist. Personally I think the former is of greater benefit, but che sera.
Thank you!
In what way? A beep, vibration, or actual steering correction? I didn’t notice any on my Houston test but merging onto I10 for the first time was sweaty enough to miss just about anything.
IMHO they need to focus on what the IG is and stick with that. Going electric and hydrogen at the same time is a bit of a joke and it’s keeping the pricing up. Maybe hydrogen in Japan but it won’t find a support network in the US. Electric, until they greatly increase battery density I don’t even see the point. That’s an entirely different mission statement. At that point just get a rivian.I found the mention of five different models interesting. Three are the Grenadier SW, the Quartermaster, and the smaller all electric model. Calder didn't give any details on the other two but said they are in development even now. There was no mention of hydrogen.
The demo's are MY 23.5 and do not actually have those safety systems - the customer trucks will. I don't know the manner in which it works, I'm just going off the spec-sheet.
They probably need to raise the “fleet average mpg” for governmental regulations, so they can actually sell you the gas one. That explains the hydrogen and electric versions.
I heard nothing from them, even when I reached out to them multiple times, so I cancelled my order Q1 build. If this is pre-sales, I can't imagine how bad warranty and service will be. What a shame, what a bad dealer. I cancelled because I didn't want them to receive my allocation/build and then claim they cant find me and then have an extra unit to dealer mark-up as a canceled order.
