Mendeola Trans Update

[crash]

Since it's been about an hour since the posting on the "other" forum, I'm gonna go ahead and repost this over here.

"Mendeola Powertrain, along with both ring & pinion and gear manufacturers, have ironed out our final challenges dealing with our current delivery issues. Both entities have ‘assured’ us (barring freak sun spot activity) that we can begin shipping July 30th.

We again apologize for any inconvenience this delay may have caused some of you. We continue to work on our customers behalf as rapidly as possible.


Thank you,

Mike Mendeola


See ya @ the open house this weekend! "

That is not good news at all. I will be speaking with Mike at the Open House to get specific dates, but that is two months later than the latest dates we were given. This transmission project has been excrutiatingly difficult to endure. We have everyone's order money in a dedicated account, so if this delay is the fact, we will stand by any refunds and be grateful for anyone who remains in the program. This is tough to take and I am very sorry about this. The only thing is that there is no other option. The reason why there are no affordable high hp mid-engined boxes are becuase this volume is so low. I will speak with Mike on Saturday and report back to you all.

I still call dibs on anyone who wants to back out of a $7500 Mendeola!

We have taken new orders (a bit higher price) but the lead time is way long (6 months) until we get solid delivery. There is very little FFR can do but wait. I am very sorry for this.
