💸 The 'official' I put my deposit down list... (5 Viewers)

Just picked up my 26’ Overtrail last week.

Less than one month from initial dealer contact. MSRP paid, no mark-up. Very pleased with the vehicle and dealer experience.

Live in Colorado. Contacted about 10 dealerships and was added to their respective waitlist. Gave sub-model, OT or OT+, two color choices and was indifferent to interior color.

Lexus of Tulsa- Carlos Moctezuma

Oh, I’ll leave this here: Avoid Lexus of Greenwood Village in the Denver area. They are janky AF

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the site!

Edit: Also, get some good pics and post them up!
 
Put my name down at the following dealerships. Can't wait!

Park Place Lexus Plano on 1/25/25
  • Earth OT with Chateau
  • Estimated 4-6 months

Sewell Lexus of Dallas on 2/27/25
  • Earth, Eminent White Pearl, Atomic Silver/Black Onyx OT with Chateau
  • Estimated 6-8 months
My dream spec will be arriving next week! Earth + Chateau from Sewell Dallas. After a 15-month wait...
 
Just put deposit down on a Nori OT+. No cool box, no traffic jam assist and no moonroof. Should be built by 2031. Can't wait.
Just got a call from the dealer and Lexus picked my order up. There is a VIN but not sure if it's just a place holder. If you don't want a moon roof, cool box or traffic jam assist, I highly recommend giving Lexus of Warwick a call in Rhode Island. Ask for Michael Huling. Its been a great experience so far.

Awesome, congratulations!!
 
Trying to get a list going of people that have put a deposit down. Hopefully we can track the production once we've got dates and times of builds, etc... If you've put your deposit down, please let us know in here!
Late March on mine.
 
Deposit in on an Atomic Silver Lux +. No visibility offered by dealer as they have several others with same specs ahead of us. Possibly will be looking at a 2027 MY.,
Got a note from my dealer that they have allocation on my order and expects delivery end of June / early July. Three months and at MSRP is not a bad outcome. Now to get wheels (Vossen or Rays) to replace the awful 22" (for my purposes anyway) with 18" off road tires and line up skid plates, etc.

Welcome to the TE37 club 😉
 
Called a local dealership about a used 25 premium plus. Got an allocation for a 26 P+ for less money. Deposit placed and should be delivered 2-4 weeks. No markup and had the unwanted PIOs and DIOs removed.

Closing the loop -took delivery this week, so 3 months on a Lux +
 
Good choice on the base model !!! All the mechanical goodness without the frills
Thanks! Test drove both and couldnt tell the difference with the speakers (maybe im crazy) and dont care about the massage seats. Got some of the other add-ons though. Not sure if the Nori is just popular or whats up, I feel like 12 months is a pretty long wait and am thinking about calling around soon to find abandoned ones in transit and just making a compromise.

Put down deposit Oct 7 ‘25 for an OT with chateau in either white, black, green, or silver.

Scheduled to pick it up next week. Agonizing 9 months but it’s a first world problem.
 
jealous ... :( 12 months here and counting for a base Nori Green OT.
My wife needed the lower step in height of the power step- reason I had to trade the Raptor. Put a skid plate on it and will swap out the (awful to me) wheels and tires and replace with Vossen 18".

If I had gone with a OT, at least at my dealer, the wait would have been much longer. They do not receive much allocation on OT. As they described, they get allocation on what they sell and they can only sell what they receive allocation on. So for them Prem & Lux and + packages.

Sounds like a miserable system Lexus has for dealer allotment.

I might just tell them to give me the next Caviar/Nori/Earth OT available. I dont think I can go through the end of the year. Awful system.
 
Not sure if you did this, but putting your name down at multiple dealers (local and out of state) will give you the best shot at getting something quicker. Working with only one dealer will limit your ability to get what you want since it seems there is no rhyme or reason to the allocations.

Sewell of Fort Worth was great for me. Sam was recommended from a neighbor and he got me an Earth OT as I wanted without roof rack and rock rails (doing aftermarket). Took 9 months but great experience from start to finish. They even had one to test drive in September 2025 when I got on the list.
