ADV Production Modular Hardtop!

[Sunday Money]

I wheel with one of the testers so I get to see the ADV one in person and see how it’s held up and I am impressed.

Anyways, we’ll probably never know the true story.l (we can make logical assumptions). But hopefully for those holding on… they ship soon. And hopefully with the all cancelled orders, there’s a surplus of inventory in the container(s) so those looking for a hard top can order one for immediate shipment.

Cool, thanks for sharing.

Armadillo did it right. Yes, it has taken longer than they initially said, but they put together their process, did it in-house, listened to feed back, and they will have a phenomenal product to deliver to the customers built right in Texas.

Notice when the little fella is pushing down on the hardtops his elbows are locked on the OEM and “3rd Party” ones, but not the one-off prototype ADV movie prop

What a

Well if this ship sinks (I really hope it doesn't and all those holding out get their top), looks like he has a fall back job.

Spoiler: the fall back job

infomercial guy!

for my own curiosity i dropped by their webpage and chatted with them. They said still 16 weeks to get a top, but would not comment on how close existing order deliveries are. Something something July was all they would say....

for those who stick around hopefully the top works out for you

Great intel! So to put this in perspective, the current delivery window is 16-weeks, which is what its been since November 2022 (a little over 80-weeks ago)?

Hopefully that’s mine jk have to do a road trip to TX later this summer when it’s ready to be installed.

Please STOP POSTING about a product that literally doesn’t exist. No one is going to receive a hardtop, there isn’t a product. The hardtop is 100% fluff, I cannot stress this enough. They didn’t R&D anything, they latched onto a Chinese manufacturer early on that intended to distribute a cheaper copy hardtop. They are grasping for straws at this point.

I already got my money back from ADV and went a different route over a month ago. Just summarizing that I hope that those that are still holding on that they get their hard top. Ultimately, it is each individual's decision to do what they want with their money and where they decide to put their money. Don't mean to offend you in any way.

Is there actually anyone here that hasn't cancelled their order/got their refund yet?
(Not asking to ridicule anyone, just genuinely curious).

Good question. It would be nice to see who may be holding out hope.

Those holding out for the top might have to take to a different approach to get updates.

Spoiler: the different approach

Out of curiosity have they sent you any update this month?

Not a word since the last “next update in 20 days”… tried calling twice yesterday and no answer. Usually quick at returning emails so I’ll try that on Monday. Last time I called them I was told late June into July. (Back in May)

Well based on the review that was left yesterday, they had no problem talking to a person about purchasing a top

Hey @Ford Motor Company, looks like @ADV Fiberglass may likely be responsible for another possible fake review citing FoMoCo endorsement of their hardtop as a substitute for the OEM version.
