I needed to post an update--it made it through the Canal yesterday. Not exactly sure when the 21 days/reservations start, or if it's only for the super sized container ships, but it looks like the car haulers have it figured out. Mine is supposed to arrive in CA on the 19th!

Introducing Kermit! 2023.5 110S. Picked him up this weekend after ordering in late January. He was built in early June, but for some reason spent 3 weeks at port. I downsized to the 18" alloys (no longer offered on the 2024) after reading on here that that it's hard to buy shoes for the 19s. I might get the white steelies, but I was worried about rust due to the winter road salt.

Process was relatively painless except for some shananigans with the dealer trying to adjust the agreed value of my trade-in.

Also, the headlight washers are leaking. When I pointed it out, they said they are aware and working on a fix that will probably result in a recall.

How long did yall's wait in port? tracked the vessel to Baltimore where I believe it was unloaded as my dealer is in Northern Va. Emailed my salesman for the umtheenth time today and he said when he gets a solid delivery date I can come look at it. Unloaded at port last Saturday. The final stretch of this wait is brutal.

Nice choice on wheels! I don't think these are offered anymore for the 2024's. I wonder why that is? Mine will look almost identical to yours!

If those are the 5094 satin dark grey, I have a 2024 on order that is supposed to have them.

Edit: Nevermind I see they are the 18" Wheels. Sorry! Too early!

Those are the 18" 5094s. It doesn't look like they're avaialbe to configure any more on the 2024 110S with the P300 (in America). They have them on the LR accessories site for $736 EACH!!!! OUCH!

@FareWarning - I read on here that most Defedners are "in port" for about a week, but mine was there for three weeks. It might be longer if you get one of the port installed accessory packs - Country, Exporer, Urban, or Adventure. That's just a guess, but I did get the Country pack.

I also just noticed that none of the 2024 accessory packs have the extended wheel arches any more. I guess if you want to get them, you'll need to have them installed at the dealer or do it yourself.
