Unfortunately, no. I reached out to him last week via email for an update and to let him know that we have a few extra interested parties, but he hasn't gotten back to me. I'll give him a call within the next day or two.

All - the fabricator has promised RD that production would start this week. He didn't seem exactly convinced, but we'll keep our fingers crossed. But we are definitely getting closer!

Hi all - as per usual, the RD guy hasn't been as responsive as I would like. I sent him an update request earlier this week and have yet to hear back. I will follow up via phone on Monday.

Thanks, JT

In all honesty, I don't think I would've ever undertaken this had I known how hard it would be for someone to accept easy, slam-dunk sales, or, as E6x Xi owners, we had any other options...I think it goes without saying that i will probably never do business with them again...

have they given you any input as far as estimated production completion once the fabricator gets moving? who at RD are you in communication with? have you fronted the payment in full for all the sets? Thanks...

Sorry for the lack of communication - I've been dealing w/ everything from a cold to emergency surgery and a 6-day hospital stay last week.

I've been dealing w/ the Regional Sales Manager (though I'd prefer not to name him directly at this point in time) and left him a rather terse email yesterday that we're all getting restless. And still no response. I plan on phoning tomorrow and will report back.

Again, if us X-drivers had any other reasonable options, I would've scuttled this weeks if not months ago.

Thx, Jeff

Sorry, I had to have an unanticipated second, follow-up surgery last Saturday. But I did leave two, unanswered v-mails during the week. I'm doing my best...

Thx, JT
