I’ll be curious on this as well given I’m in PNW too and just placed an order.

There's no easy answer to this question. From what I have read, it varies by a number of factors. The part of the U.S. you're located in, how long the vehicle sits at the port before being picked up by an available ship (e.g. it could "miss the boat and have to wait until the next shipping cycle), whether or not the route the ship is direct or making additional stops.

It is an easy answer - how long did your recent delivery take.

I did not ask how long mine would take or to a specific location.

Mine is still being built. Most of the members reporting recent deliveries are anywhere between 5 to 8 weeks after completion. Plan accordingly.

Ordered on October 16th. Took delivery in Seattle on December 30th. That was with a stop sale.

So 9-10 weeks appears normal, not the 4 weeks my dealer says.

Your dealer may be thinking about vehicles produced in the US and Mexico. I think a new build coming from SC is far faster than a 5er.

FYI Mine took 12 weeks to arrive, from October -> late Jan of 2024. This was to the east coast.
