Hello All! Count me in for another official depositors list, done that at Longo Lexus in SoCal but they have not given me my number in line (not that I want to know as well - it will simply depress me lol!) looking forward to more interactions here!

Welcome and congratulations! I got you added to the list!

Congrats! What trim level/color are you planning on going with?
 
For those who pre-ordered at Longo Lexus in SoCal, did you guys get some kind of receipt for your deposit? I have been chasing the internet advisor ever since I paid but he won't respond or give me my number in the queue for some reason.

Yes, I got a receipt, but I had to chase my sales rep too. Give them a call, and ask for one. I think they have taken several hundred deposits.

I read a while back that the allocations per dealer was something like 10 each every two weeks or so. Does anyone know the true allocation process for Lexus dealers?

I really don't think anyone knows what allocations are going to be just yet. I would imagine higher volume dealerships will get more stock because of their proven ability to move cars. I doubt a small market store is going to get the same allocation a large metro market dealer will.

I've been thinking about waitlists lately. I think the long lists are making us all believe there is a huge clamor for the vehicle. While I do believe the GX and LC 250 are going to be HUGE sellers, I think there may be a buyer bias in favor of MSRP dealerships which makes waitlists seem exceptionally long. Just a thought.

Absolutely. I've contacted a several and only one dealer near me do not charge a markup but has a long waitlist. The other dealers know it too and mention as much to me. I pretty much told them to get lost since I'm in no rush to get a new vehicle. I'm fine to wait and not pay an unknown amount of mark up. I waited 5 months for my 2021 Gladiator. Looks like I may have to do the same for the GX.

Placed my non-refundable deposit yesterday for a Luxury +. Was #8 on the list at my local dealership. They just began accepting deposits. Inventory Manager couldn't confirm where I fall with allocations.

Congrats and welcome to the forum! I'm waiting to hear how I fall within the allocations. What other options are you considering?
 
Got placed on the order list yesterday. My configured vehicle is Overtrail + with Earth exterior, Chateau or Black Olive interior. No deposit required. I'm sure I'm at the bottom of the list so not expecting the vehicle until maybe quarter 3 or 4.

That's going to look great! It should be well worth the wait!

I had two dealers tell me that most deposits where NOT on Overtrail+. I too am getting an OT+ w/Chateau. They told me there were ~40 ahead of me, but only 3-4 OT.
 
I put in my deposit back in May before the reveal. I am not sure where on the list I am though but expect to be in the first or second allocation. I am still torn between Overtrail and Premium+.

Not expecting off-roading except on rare occasions, love the look and wheels/tires of Overtrail and the options on the Premium+. The Overtrail+ seems like a good spot but the $10K difference (with options according the circulating allocation table) seems excessive to me. So not really sure yet.
