Step one is to hope the dealer gets an allocation for a chassis. You cannot just "place" and order with the factory. Dealer are allocated a certain number of chassis.
February orders are closed.
Begining of March they reopen. If your dealer receives an allocation, he/she can place your order, as long as they are building the vehicle in that configuration/color that build cycle.
Once your order is placed and confirmed a order number is generated. This is the first "hard" proof your order has been placed and accepted.
From that point the vehicle receives a scheduled build date and then moves through the shipping process.
Your dealer can call and track your order once it has hit land, tell you when it is rail loaded, and port shipped. Your dealer will receive a 24-72 hr "heads up" notice from the car carrier company as to when it will be unloaded onto their lot.
Tracking an order is not an easy process. Just make sure you get an order number to confirm the order has been placed and accepted.
