I am worried that getting an allocation for my small dealer in a small market is about as good as winning the Power Ball, 1 in 176 million. He is a good friend, honest as they come but isn't some huge dealer. I have a VON in BX, hope it moves on someday to a VIN.

I ordered my Charger HC Saturday and got my VON today. When I tried to pay for it Saturday my dealer told me not to worry until the car showed up. He said all I do is give him the colors and we wait. Not sure what all that means, but I guess I am waiting...

The dealer doesn't have an invoice yet, about all he could do would be to take money down on the car. If your dealer is honest you should be in good shape. With a VON and status of BX you are about where you should be at this point. Now the waiting game begins. Good luck, when you get a VIN you are much more safe to see the car someday.

One more question the dealer told me it was a positive order waiting to flip to build status. That I had nothing to worry about. Do I believe him?

When your dealer actually placed the order he should print for you a "Priced Order Conformation" POC. On the POC you should show a VON, that is the start of the process. Also on the POC you should see a Status, BA is the first, really meaning only that the computer got it. BX is the next, and that means almost nothing as well, other than the dealer ordered it correctly. Then we wait for status of D and D1, that actually means good news. It is a waiting game, for some, many months.

Oh so when they said that in the very beginning they didn't really mean it but now they do? We can hope I guess.

I just had a dealer email me and say "Effective today, Chrysler won’t be scheduling stock orders for Charger and Challenger Hellcats. They must be sold orders to be scheduled for production." Any truth to that ResumeSpeed?

I heard the same thing, I hope it is true. It would be nice to hear from RS.

Thanks for this bit of info, looks like mine is at bx , which means at least it was ordered correctly
We are playing the waiting game For how long --Anybodys guess

I don't think anyone knows how long. I don't know if Canada is a whole lot different that the states or not. Some have been in BX for many months, it seems there is not a way to determine the wait for sure. Get you VON listed here and wait. Enjoy the "ride" until the real ride comes, then throw a party.
