Joe stated around today. Trust me I loaded the site a dozen times already since midnight last night. Procrastination continues...

I'd say check back about the 23rd.

Not sure if you saw this on the other thread, More bad news:

I was told the build and price feature would not be up until June 21st. That is a Tuesday so maybe I remembered that wrong but I am sure I was told June 20 something. This was by the Honda web marketing people. That is also when the truck will go on sale.

Did a build once years ago. Wonder how long it takes before delivery, back then I waited another 6 months. Wouldnt want to be in limbo for several months. When is their going to be a Gen lll new post up so we can complain or brag about it for years.

Northern you gotta remember Honda isn't like other manufacturers in that it doesn't have 1 million options per vehicle. You get add ons with accessories and that's about it, so I can't imagine it would take that long. Just the time it takes for the dealer to get the vehicle in the color and whatever accessories you want.

In the other thread, according to Cenovio who has been to Camp Ridgeline, June 20th is the date.

June 20th is what I was told for the official sale date and also when the website will launch the build and price feature.

They should release it for sale on June 19th. At least that way they can still say "Spring 2016".

Yeah, I have dealt with a few contractors that use that sort of definition of when they will be done. "This week" means Friday at 5 PM....

That does make sense in terms of wanting to have inventory since by that time they will have 2 months of production, which (if you believe numbers posted here) should be at least 8000 vehicles or an average of 8 per dealer. I wonder if these are being held off lot by dealers or in Honda regional holding lots (or both)?

That also might account for the hit and miss information from various dealers. We all know that dealers vary from competent to incompetent, from well informed to totally clueless, and from customer friendly to "I could care less". So depending on which of the above a dealer is, you would get varying and often bizarre information. We have all had companies give us totally weird explanations in order to cover their butts or avoid telling the truth and I would bet lots of this often conflicting so-called "information" users here are getting from dealers is due to that.

Yup, I would now bet on late June! Memorial day might have made more sense, date wise, but they may not have the inventory to make that date.
