Happy New Years to all
. Wondering if anyone on here has ordered a New Manning recently?? I ordered one back in August and still have no date for completion. I have ordered a half dozen of them in the years......all with great success and quality. Matt has always been good to me. I get the COVID, supply chain, employee issues etc, but they really have not responded to calls and emails etc. I am not at all bashing just curious if anyone else is having same issues???
Thanks in advance.

Be careful they RIPPED me off about 12 years ago , on a Brand new custom ordered 21,000 Aluminum trailer that they resold on me and didn't pay me , They kept on telling me they would send me some money but never did , i live in south Florida so u could see very hard for me to see them face to face , I wish they would have Kept there word like a Honest company , So the begging of the story is I had the trailer built for my 38 EX fountain , the hauler jack knifed and twisted the front part of the trailer " first 6 to 10 foot " So they fixed it and resold it without my permission and then when i found out about it they said the would send me some money " i think they sent me $ 500 : i consider this nothing "on a $ 12k + trailer that they now fixed and resold again .
I wish they would make it rite with me even now , I hate talking negative about a family owned company but there thief's in my eyes until they make it RITE

So, you are saying- you Paid for the trailer, they built it and hauler wrecked it, then they fixed it sold it and you never got a trailer or $$?? Did the haulers ins pay you?
I mean I am just curious. Otherwise, I would think this would be a pretty easy court claim.

All they did was cut the first 6 to 10 foot at most of V of the trailer and then rewelded a new v to the front , Thats not $ 12 k worth of work , I didnt bother suing them because they told me they had no money and would make good on it in the future , and after dealing with my Pantera 12 k seem like nothing to wait on

Evolution builds the best trailer I have ever owned and I have had several Myco trailers and a couple of Mannings. The Manning trailers are built well but the customer service from Evolution is second to none! I will never buy anything but an Evolution!!!!!!!

Yes i paid in full for the trailer other wise they would have never put my boat on it , Hauler had fake insurance , If u call $ 500 payment on a 12 k +trailer that they paid me then we see thing different.

I was told recently that the top 10 trailer builders are over 1000 trailers out on orders. If you think about the top 3-4 having 60% of that business you can see where they might be tied up. No excuse for poor communication, but things are probably being prioritized, for better or worse.
