Congrats on the new rig! We factory ordered our Terry TT back in 2007 and what the dealer told me was that the factory builds one model at a time in rotation. So they set the line up to produce x# of model A, then adjust what they need to and produce x# of Model B, and so on. We ordered in September and didn't get the trailer until mid-December because we had just missed the rotation for our model and had to wait for it to come around again.
It doesn't sound very efficient and probably why Fleetwood went out of business in 2008. Not sure if any factories still (or ever did) operate like this....I'm in banking, not manufacturing. :)
