Advised by Mark that our Atom 4, chassis #122, was ready for assembly. Sent me a picture of a chassis in a build bay. So it seems they have been able to collect enough parts to build one. 3-6 months to complete, if all goes well.

Sent you a PM. Take a look.

Reached out to TMI and got a response back that Nomad production is paused due to part shortages (that do not affect the Atom which is currently being actively produced with a 12-16 months lead time) That lead time on the Atom is highly inaccurate. I've been waiting for over two years with no end i...

In early June TMI sent an email saying “At a minimum you should expect to hear monthly on overall updates….or your specific build. Currently we are changing some internal administrative items to better communicate specifics for each client directly.” A follow up with nothing of substance (like numb...

I have my fingers crossed. I have been told my Atom is fully assembled and is to get its 50 mile test drive this week. If all goes well, it will be shipped to me in Michigan. That's the good news. The bad news? I ordered the car three years ago! Sure... It is AA40112 Any update on your order?

***Update*** I reached out to TMI and spoke with Jesse about the future of the Nomad. He indicated they're still building Nomads and it is not being discountinued. Sometime in the near future, they will contact people on the priority build list, I'm on that list (yay!) and start the build process. ...

I reached out to TMI and spoke with Jesse about the future of the Nomad. He indicated they're still building Nomads and it is not being discountinued. I visited TMI on 20 April 2023 and Mark told me that the Nomad was down to its final handful of cars. Then no more. That's crazy. Either Jesse and M...

If you have better information, please share. Thanks mate! Not sure if that question was directed at me, but I shared everything I know. I went to TMI's facility last year, and from what I understood from Mark at the time, they would be discontinuing the production of Nomads. That may of course hav...

FYI it is about a 2 yr wait if you order new in the US by my estimate. I have been waiting 15 mths with no end in sight. Even 2 yrs is probably wishful thinking. I'm coming up on that next month with no end in sight. What's the latest estimate you've been given? Also, care to share your chassis num...

I'm a bit shocked hearing the experiences you all are having with TMI. I've been on a waiting list to get on a waiting list to place a deposit for a Nomad build since 4th Q of 2021. The Nomad has been my dream car for 7 years of so and I'm finally in a position to be able to buy one. After being bu...

Sad but true...

I wanted to hop on here to share that my experience has been the same as described above with TMI. Lots of missed dates and lots of pestering (via phone and text) to just get a simple response. I placed my order Jan 2021 and i don't think my build proper has even begun yet. That's a bummer. You ord...

Just another verbal in response to my pestering Mark at TMI by phone. Q4 2023. I'll believe it when I see it.

You and me both!

Atom 4 (on order); Denver, CO Group, the Europeans have put together a fun what’s app group (for the atom 4 folks). Anyone up for doing the same for US atoms? Happy to set it up. If you want to, just pm me your number and I’ll set it up. Good idea! I'll shoot you a PM if and when I receive the car....
