Steph and Dud B Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 Word of slipping delivery dates has us concerned. We're both teachers with no flexibility in our vacation schedules. If our summer delivery date slips into the school year there's no way we can drive to TN, take delivery, and return to CT. Has anybody had their new Ollie delivered to their home state? If so, how did you arrange it, and what were the costs? Stephanie and Dudley from CT. 2022 LE2, Hull #1150: Eggcelsior. Tow vehicle: 2016 GMC Sierra 6.0 gas dually 4x4.

Moderators topgun2 Posted November 24, 2021 Moderators Posted November 24, 2021 There have been a number of owners that have had their Ollies delivered. Hopefully some of them will chime in here with their specific details. In the meantime, I'd talk to my Oliver Sales agent and ask them about this possibility. Good luck!

Moderators SeaDawg Posted November 24, 2021 Moderators Posted November 24, 2021 I sure hope that doesn't happen. I was a teacher, a long time ago. Summer is shorter for teachers than students, for sure. There's a lot of beautiful country between you and Hohenwald, and it's a great trip. (I've done it. My college roommate, and still my best friend, lives in CT.) Plus, the factory pickup can be so educational. Good to explore the options, but hope you'll get to make the trip yourselves. What was your original pickup date? 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar. DC compressor fridge. No inverter. 2 x 105 ah agm batteries . Life is good.
Time2Go! Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 There is a specific company they use I think it's Cowboy something. There is a guy from Washington/Oregon that purchased right before us that had his delivered and was very happy with the service. Maybe he will see your post. 2 Charlie & Cindy / Cleburne, TX / 2021 Elite II Hull #743 / 2013 Ford F250 Diesel 4WD Supercab States we've camped in our Oliver:
Moderators SeaDawg Posted November 24, 2021 Moderators Posted November 24, 2021 Painted cowboy? Don't know if still the same, but here's a thread. Best to call your reo, obviously. Everything changes over time. 1 1 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar. DC compressor fridge.

I checked with the cost to tow it to Portland, Oregon and it was something like $1.65 per mile which brought it to over $3000 if I recall. I thought no thanks. 1 John and Debbie, Beaverton, Oregon, 2017 Ford Expedition EL 4x4 3.5 liter Ecoboost, with heavy duty tow package.

LostInThePNW Posted December 31, 2021 Posted December 31, 2021 I had mine shipped to Southern Oregon. Found the shipper through uShip. He was around $800 cheaper than painted cowboy. 1
