In other words, if I committed to a price of $36500 in writing and then GM raised the price (because they can) to $37,900, who was gonna eat the difference? Us? If there was no price protection, we would be out the difference. We weren't taking the gamble. So, our customers agreed to MSRP at time of delivery. If the difference is minimal, we will reimburse the customers once we receive the money from GM.
All good points, and it certainly makes sense. Thanks again!
