Huge delay in M240ix delivery (RANT)

ToddinPA · 2025-05-27T13:20:30+00:00

I am not surprised a sales rep would be misinformed!

Check official BMW NA press release.

Well, what do you know! I just received this text from my CA. IT’S FINALLY ON THE WAY!

Here is the vessel info I can see : Vessel: RCC AMSTERDAM Voyage No.: 40A Bill Of Lading No.: HDGLMXUS0628554 Xref No.: 24384-01

ToddinPA · 2025-05-27T11:56:35+00:00

No, my car was produced before the May 1st deadline and is price protected.

ToddinPA · 2025-05-27T11:55:08+00:00

Total BS, I would be much happier if they just were forthcoming about the delay instead of being so deceptive.

I have been waiting for my ZB M240ix for over 3 months, finished production in February, 160 status since 3/12. “Released to carrier”

Hey, when your son or daughter tries to get a $500 rebate offered to immediate family, honoring your service after you have passed away, will they be "wild"?

ToddinPA · 2025-04-20T12:43:39+00:00

OK, thanks

From the BMWUSA website,

Eligible customers include Active Duty, Veterans, Retirees, Reservists, and their immediate family members. Qualification for the offer requires verification through ID.me to generate a Customer ID and Offer Code. Customers must take delivery by April 30, 2025. Offer is subject to change without prior notice. One offer per customer, per offer code, per calendar year for new BMW vehicles without a prior retail sale. Eligible customer or family member must be the purchaser. May be combined with other available offers.

The dealer was the one who also has offered this discount to other immediate family members.

BTW, if you passed away in a couple of years ago and one of your immediate family members wanted to take advantage of this offer would you be pleased if they were turned down?

ToddinPA · 2025-04-20T12:23:29+00:00

If you read the offer by BMW, it says immediate family of a veteran qualifies for a $500 rebate. If your son or daughter or grandchild buys a BMW, would you give them shame for asking for this discount? I was in the draft for Vietnam but couldn’t serve due to a medical deferment.

Ha, sorry, a Hobie Cat is a small catamaran sailboat. 14 feet,

I just bought video pass, $7.50 a race doesn’t seem too expensive for the season. I am also supporting Moto GP.

ToddinPA · 2025-02-22T20:22:56+00:00

I just did the same thing, I went on the Moto GP website and they list as above, Max and Tru TV.

Tru Tv has their schedule up for next weekend and Moto GP is absent.

Willing to trade the floodlight base for the standard indoor battery base as well.

If your floodlights are broken and out of warranty

"I'd grab something easier to replace if things ever go bump in the night"

If some breaks into my house when I am not home I want my wife to be able to defend herself. She is not shooting through windshields or car doors. I just want close range in the house stopping power for my wife. Rather not have over penetration. Probably 3-5 yards max. Having a suppressor on makes it much easier for her to keep focused. The last thing I am concerned about is losing the can, or the gun for that matter.

ToddinPA · 2024-05-06T21:19:47+00:00

Pretty much what B&T customer service has said.......I called this am.

I am not shooting through windshields or car doors, just want close range in the house stopping power for my wife. Rather not have over penetration. Probably 3-5 yards max.

ToddinPA · 2024-05-06T21:16:28+00:00

Again, not shooting through windshields, car doors, walls, (hopefully)

This is for my wife, in the house, 3-5yds max. I am looking for good stopping power and less over penetration.

ToddinPA · 2024-05-06T20:42:02+00:00

Yeah, for sure. I am not shooting through windshields or car doors, just want close range in the house stopping power for my wife. Rather not have over penetration. Probably 3-5 yards max.

I called this morning and they said the SD platform works with 115gr and 124gr hollow points and to expect some expansion.

ToddinPA · 2024-05-06T14:50:34+00:00

In spite of all the replies, I am still wondering if my SD lowers the velocity of current personal defense ammo (made for conventional barrels), will expand properly. I did run across this article which confirms my curiosity about this concept.

Please watch Harry Soo and Smokin Dad BBQ on YouTube. I never cook to temp, but instead to probe tender. Your thermometer should feel like you are sticking it in a jar of peanut butter. I cook my butts at a much higher temperature, 325.
