    Somebody had already ordered engines (in advance) for their inventory or expected sales.

    Just curious,did Freedom tell you they had some pre-ordered and they would be able to pull one out of there stock to full fill your order or was your order a completely fresh order to Mercury......

    I called and told them i needed a motor, went the next day and put a 6k deposit down. He said i was first in line when one comes in, he expected January or Feb. So when he called Tuesday and told me mine was in i was suprised. Said a truck showed up and had one motor on it, he said he never knows when one will show up, its just random.

    That tells you right there that the delivery dates they give are bogus info. Hopefully a truck shows up tomorrow at jacos with several 300R motors. Last I heard was the merc rep told them that they are backed up again so they don’t know when it’ll be.

    I got the 5th pro xs that jacos received, I ordered on the first day available. Came in oct 15. Just crazy, missed almost whole year fishing out of my personal boat because of merc giving bad delivery dates to dealer. I feel bad for Teresa, if everyone called her as much as I did LOL

    Guess I was thinking of Freedom Outdoors (and not Freedom Marine).

    Let's stick to promotion of Sponsors as much as possible (please refer to the Announcements at the top of the Forum). Thanks!
