It's such a joke at this point that I can't really get mad at the situation, it's just kind of pathetic but I guess they still have a ton of hardtop orders

Well..... it's November!

If they showed the headliner at least that would help quite a few folks

Ya idk why they think it's such an importance to not show it. Their understanding of optics is just mind boggling because I'm willing to bet that even if it looks terrible, or not where they want it to be, just seeing it will shut most people up. True, theres probably gonna be some negative perspectives, but jesus tap dancing christ....

It's funny, GFC owes me nothing and I bought a couple thing from them last year. I still get weekly emails on what's going on. Like how hard is that?

Yeah, lack of communication and transparency is what's pretty much crossed them off my list entirely at this point. Just tell us what the hold up is. Why this hold-up is preventing ANY tops from shipping is beyond me, but it must mean there is a design or assembly flaw affecting all of them.

I've seen the ADV prototype in person, it looks great. Until these things are "in stock" and shippable I'm not even going to give it another look.

I'm eager to see what Armadillo's square back looks like. Their recent broadcast with BroncBusterTX showing what they learned from the prototype and the design changes they're pumping in ahead of full production are reasonable. I liked that they're very clear the slant banks are going into production first and those of us interested in square backs will wait a while. Again, I'll probably wait until things are moving along smoothly before parting with any of my money.

I'm slightly annoyed that two years later Bestop hasn't produced a square back soft top superior to the OEM one either. I actually don't entirely mind having a soft top.

I asked on Monday, the status of the install video and headliner.
I was told the videos would be released prior to shipments starting.
They also said, STAY TUNED, I hope thats more positive than SOON.
I honestly can't understand the secrecy.

Well, looking at the bright side, we are in November. This is the closest that we have gotten before KJBEGGS willpower breaks down again lol,and he calls up for updates and is told next month again for the umpteenth time.

From another post on a Sema thread, a user said he ordered ADV and was told JAN for delivery.

I have my Slantback on order from Armadillo, and I should receive it in December. I hope I made the cut. Lot of updates coming out of Armadillo. I am looking forward to getting my top.
