Another point GM made was that the dealers are the one who need to control "sold orders" not GM. If they would not have made this fictional pre-order program, then there would not be a lot of mis-information. I can put in 100 pre-orders and it means nothing if you don't have allocation.

Why would you have to wait until the end of the year for a V8 from a small dealership if is allocated? I don't understand this. Allocations are smaller at small dealerships but still proportionate and it is in the allocation, so why such a long wait for small dealership allocated V8's?
