What's up with Savvy Off Road?

Yeah this is kinda where I’m at, at least I’ve been getting a response by email, here and there.

looks like I’ll be running shot control bushings on trip to the mountains after Christmas. Hopefully I’ll have the arms before the middle of January for the next trip to the Mts
My bushings are shot as well. Jeep is terrible to drive right now. I would have found a cheap temporary solution if I had known they wouldn’t ship out in 2-3 days like I was told
 
I’m extremely patient so that helps, I’ve never contacted them asking about my orders.
I'm patient as long as people communicate - which sounds like isn't happening here. I'll work with people for weeks if need be, as long as they're communicating - but ignore me at your peril. If I send a vendor an email, they had better respond to it in a timely manner - otherwise, I get very grumpy very fast.

I don’t think I’d want to be on the receiving end of a Grumpy Zorba...

Yeah, I would have order Rokmen control arms if I knew I wouldn’t receive Savvy stuff till after Xmas. Rokmen even offered me a discount if I ordered before Xmas.

everybody's behind............ the fact that everyone is waiting for things is the very reason it's takin so dam long to get um. the carriers are flooded. the shippers can't get it moved out.

hell summit is next day delivery for me and it's been 4 dys now with no info other than "in route". the post office has been on the news for thousands of packages stalled at terminals piing up because they are understaffed.

i can say Savvy seems a little chill about the speed they move at, and my last piece of "in stock" stuff took more than a significant amount of time to get moving and i even asked the same question about tracking no's, because i was feelin a little forgotten.
Now we know what it’s like to be a non-American. All this Covid bullshit affecting manufacturing and shipping. And people are still wearing masks. This will never go away till we all say, f- you, we’re not following your crony rules.
 
i'm not gonna take the bait and start a debate.

where covid is the issue, is the amount of shoppers that chose to avoid crowding stores and make online purchases that has overwhelmed the package carrier services.
the effect is magnified here in this forum because none of our stuff is local and we all wait for those small package carriers.

i don't believe its the online shoppers overwhelming the carriers. I believe its a severe shortage of product due to COVID.
I try to support my local businesses, but nobody has anything.
Typical response is.... we are not getting product from our vendors.
I work for GM and we are having issues getting parts. I waited 6 weeks for a diesel Reductant fluid tank, It was backordered.
Reason for the backorder, awaiting delivery from the offshore manufacturer.

It is all of it. Shoppers overwhelming the carriers with online purchases. Amazon has only recently gotten back to semi consistent Prime delivery times. My USPS carrier is now stopping by 3 times a day. I'm getting consistent deliveries on weekend days including Sunday. Delays in the supply chain at every step due to personnel shortages not keeping up with production run everyone out of parts. Advanced Adapters went from 2-4 weeks for a case to 2-4 months just due to delays in supply both inhouse and outside suppliers.

Worse is companies have shut down that used to supply stuff and those who depended on them had to scramble to find other sources which was not known a lot of the time until the re-order went through and got rejected.
 
Just got the shipping confirmation for my savvy steering box skid
 
Savvy is starting to sound like one of my ex GFs. Fiery, freckled, redhead. Greatest sex 'intimate adventures' in my life. My God it was great. She was also a pathological liar, a thief, and had mental issues. Not saying Savvy is any of those things. Just saying that sometimes it just isn't worth the hassle.
