2021 75th Anniversary PW Ordered

[wobly]

Was looking at those too. What’s the difference from xact and weather beater?

I bought the Weather Beaters. I had them in my old truck and they did well.
Here is what their website says about the difference...
"The main difference is that the WeatherBeater uses a special rubber material called DuraGrip that’s known for its soft, pliable feel. If you like to go barefoot in the car and still have something to squish your feet against, this is the mat for you.

The X-act Contour is made with thermoplastic olefins, or TPO. While durable, this material tends to be a bit rigid, at least more so than the WeatherBeater. It’s known to freeze up in cold temperatures, making it difficult to adjust or move around. "

Cool, thanks! I’m getting a bit ahead of myself trying to order things for a truck I don’t even possess yet.

I spent about $4k on tires and other parts before my truck arrived.

So after a lot of hassles trying to order a power wagon I found one only a few hours away all most a perfect match to what I wanted to order. They got it on Friday I bought it today and the sales man told me they had 4 calls on it while I was out racking on the first 50 km I got number 874 and love it. If you live in the Ottawa area and see one you like jump on it as it’s no ********* there sold the day they hit the lots around here.

Hey Tinman454 , Nice truck.... I'm just down the road in Kemptville. I found my 18 PW at J.J. Stewart in Norwood. 3 hr. drive but worth it.

Oh.. wow. Skids and sliders?? I’m looking at those exact tires and size. If not, coopers.

I ordered a trans skid plate and took off the 75A sliders. I put on the regular tube steps for now. I will probably get real sliders in the future.

Just got the dreaded call from my dealer, telling me what I was beginning to think. They called and said the planned build date was 4 days ago, but there is a shortage of chips so it’s been placed on hold. They are not building anymore trucks without the chips available. Sounds like they have some built waiting for the chips but they are not going to build anymore (this is all supposedly from their rep).

They said the production on 2021s is now considered done. Anything they build now will be considered a 2022. They believe the truck will still come with the 75th options and branding, but will be a 22. They told me 3-6 months out for delivery. Already been three months.

Crap, that sux! Sry to hear that!

Talked to another dealer and got a completely different story. They said my dealer just wants the truck to sell at a higher price when it shows up so they are hoping I ask for my deposit back. LOL. What a screwed up world.

i’d tend to believe the first dealer. That’d be a hell of a move to try and pull off and easy for you to keep tabs on.

I live in Ottawa Ontario Canada. I started my power wagon build back in January tried to go through like 8 different dealers not one got back to me even called a few back to get an up date on the price from a few. They all had some ********* story about why I can’t get a truck priced and built. The only dealers that called me back were ones that had a wagon on the lot or they were getting one soon. I quickly realized if I want a 75th I better find one on a lot I want. Never in my life did I think I would have this kind of troubles buying a 80,000 truck. And I all so realized they sold the day they hit the lot or were sold before they received delivery of the truck. Had a dealer 4hrs away that got delivery of an orange one. I wanted an anvil colour. Told him I needed too see it before I would buy it they got it on Friday I bought it Saturday morning. He told me he had 4 calls about the truck while I was out for a test spin. If it’s like that we’re you are I would get on the web find a truck you like and put your money down. If not you won’t get a 75th it sucks its that way but it’s no ********* that these trucks are impossible to build and buy now. My advice to anyone who wants one find it and put your money down. After seeing it I really like the orange

 

[B Mitty]

Yea I’m loving the orange as well, I mistake it for red a lot in certain light conditions.

 

[BowerPower]

My main problem with orange is that it doesn't take pictures well. I have multiple pictures of different orange trucks and every truck is a different shade of orange. One of these days I hope to see it in person to fully comprehend the color. If you mistake it for red sometimes then it must be a darker redish-orange. If that is the case then maybe I should have gotten it. I really like red orange
