Greetings all,
This 50 year old with a 10 year olds impatience is non-stop thinking about his coming Amerique. I could have been one of the very first owner's, but I chickened out and cancelled my order some months ago. In one sense I'm glad that I did, because from what I've read, the firebox has been improved to let the wood chunks smolder better. My order has been resurrected, and I'm more anxious and exicted than words could say. I did end up with a ceramic cooker that uses lump charcoal. I LOVE it (great pizzas)- - -but the lure of true low and slow in an electric sealed unit has seduced me into having two cookers. Well- - -make that 3, because I also have a gasser that is strictly infrared, and I love that one too.
About 2 weeks ago my Amerique order was placed, and from the get-go I was told that it could take from 4-6 weeks. Karen is the nicest of the nice, and I don't want to keep pestering her, although I did say that I would probably be e-mailing her once every two weeks just to hear if I'm moving up the list for delivery.
Today Karen said that there had not been any Amerique's off of the assembly line recently, due to a shipment of "control boards" that were about to come in. She said that they should be in, either today, or on Monday.
Once they come in, does anyone out there know how many Amerique's come off the assembly line on a weekly basis? I think I'm number 30 on the list as of now.
Impatiently and appreciatingly yours,
Jeff
