ETA on 25’s?

[ragingwookies]

Recently joined this forum and ordered my OT last month in Maryland with no ETA? Anyone hearing anything? Also, how common or rare are hood and brake issues? Just curious while anxiously awaiting delivery. This forum is fantastic! Thank you everyone for your posts!

I think the brake squeal issue has been resolved, and I haven't heard any complaints from any 2025 owners about the hood flutter. Either way, it's not a deal breaker.

Fantastic, thanks!

I have a 25 Lux+ with just under 200 miles so far. No break, engine, transmission issues. Slight hood flutter but not much and I only noticed it because of some many complaints. Not an issue for me at all. I love the truck now that I have it. I hated waiting! Deposit on 1/9, Allocated on 1/15, Picked up at dealer on 2/25.

Congrats! Happy to hear you’re enjoying the new ride. Appreciate your feedback. Waiting does stink!

Your wait time was much like mine - only opposite.

Deposit on 2/7 and delivered on 1/18

1/13 deposit, 3/7 delivery for my 2025 OT+. No issues of any kind in the first 200 miles.

When you say you ordered, do you mean asked for allocation or actually put down a deposit on a known allocation?

If you've made an allocation request, you may have to add an indeterminate amount of time depending on how specific you were with your allocation request. I provided 3 choices of color and would accept any other options except roof rack and one was available for deposit within a month. Some people who require exact specs are waiting for months.

That is fast delivery! I put down $3k and placed a special order for an OT in silver and black. That’s my personal favorite color, but do really like others. This is probably the reason for the long delay. In the meantime, I’m still driving my 19 year old 4Runner with 263k miles. Love that car, but really looking forward to the luxury that is Lexus.

I got an Atomic with no black top. I would have accepted either. Honestly the 2025 OT is so tall that I can't see the top of the roof anyway.

That silver does pop!

Got a white 2025 Premium + 3 weeks after put deposit

Similar here, deposit at the beginning of March and my OT is due by the 20th.

 

[ragingwookies]

Reason for optimism. Enjoy your rides!

I put a $3,000 deposit on one in early January and got one in mid February.

 

[ragingwookies]

Nice ride!

 

[kscarrol]

And just got the call, my OT will arrive at the dealer Monday morning and I will pick it up Monday afternoon!! Going to be a long weekend....

 

[ragingwookies]

Sweet dreams! My dealership just told they officially placed my order March 4th and will receive monthly reports confirming orders on the 21st. Upon confirmation, it will be within 90 days. Glad my ‘06 4Runner is holding on.

Put my deposit down late January and picked up last week. 2025. PPF, ceramic coating, and tinting complete. In for westcott level, 17" wheels, and 35"

tires next week. Westcott roof rack whenever it arrives and that's it for now. Break squeak and hood flutter seems to be resolved. Loving it so far!

 

[ragingwookies]

Love it! Very sharp! Do most people wrap in ceramic to protect or just hard core off wheelers?
