Not much I can do about it Travis! I'm not sure how you guys can get further behind with time. LOL... I'm in it for the long run I guess. So I add another week then? So not this Friday (day after tomorrow) which would be 7 weeks from order date, but the next Friday then I'll be at 8 weeks? Something like that?



I'd say, yes, something like that. Your understanding is really appreciated, man.

Back in January, we were pounding them out in 2 weeks. Demand was still what we considered strong and steady from November till January, but we got straight up bum rushed afterwards. When you go from selling a handful of grapples a day to 20+, things start getting hard to accurately forecast. I remember when one a day was like, wow, we're really doing something here!

Tis the season when you think about it. I guess most of us get motivated to do outdoor work in spring. When in fact the better time to do it is in the winter. Human nature. Most of us did more thinking than acting in january. When stuff started growing and getting out of hand we tried to catch up. Hence the order glut. Can't make stuff as fast as we want it to be there!

The rest of y'all fence sitters (like me) better get your orders on in. You'll feel better once your in line and you'll be ready for fall. Think about it... your into August right now getting one. Yea... its almost June now!

Yeah, It was my post. I'll transfer most of it over here in case others are wondering.

Yea, guys. This is the most incredible run we've ever had. Currently, there are over 100 people waiting for just the Wicked 55.

On average, we've been around a week further behind than estimated, so, for the past week or so, we've been saying 7+ weeks with more emphasis on the possible +.

THANK YOU so much for the business and support, guys. It's a wild ride at EA right now and we'll do everything possible to deliver the goods without TOO much delay!

Time to get another cutter, and teach your welders to run two or three robots each!

A new tubing laser is ordered, Laser #3 is already at the new facility waiting along with a larger paint booth, extensive bridge crane system, 6 big @ss fans, and more floor space for adding to our welders.
The larger location will also allow our final assembly and shipping department to join forces and create a presently broken flow, which will increase productivity and efficiency.
Much better lead times will soon follow.

I had a little time to play this morning, so I snapped some pics of the Kubota B3350 with our highly function work of art, AKA the 200 Pound Wicked 55!

Yep! I ordered mine in Nov and got it in 2 weeks. Shopping right time of year pays off.
