congratulations, mine was mid December. I haven't heard anything yet.
All I know it is produced, either on the ship or waiting to go on. The salesman can't track any further.

Since the original post mentioned luxury tax in Australia, thought I would chime in and say here in Canada, the luxury tax is 20% on any amount over $100k CAD. So if the truck costs $110k, you pay 20% on $10k, if $150k, you pay 50% on $50k. And all this on top of the sales tax, for us here in Montreal, Quebec, that amounts to 15% provincial and federal combined. So not cheap to buy a new car or truck here, especially luxury ones.
