What most people are upset about -- at least from what I'm reading -- and from the PMs I've rec'd -- is this:

" ...I ordered my car on October 18th and I should be first!..."

No one from GM ever said that if you order your car on October 18th, you'll be first -- we said those cars -- when ordered within a dealer's allocation - would be built by the third quarter - and we will accomplish that - in fact we hope to accomplish it much sooner.........

There are many issues -- I'm trying to explain as many as possible -- and the many complexities -- but all too often there are 'experts' that tell me I'm wrong....... ( I've got broad shoulders - it comes with the territory ...) -- but I AM losing patience with some - esp. those who mislead..........
and i think you have totally hit the nail on the head. I wasnt able to order till middle of November, and knew when i ordered i was obviously going to be pushed back. Am i currently happy with how long things have taken of course not (still sitting at 1100), but I also didnt have any exceptions of knowing i was going to get the car at a set date. Of course I was hopeful i would have it by a certain time but I knew going in there were no guarantees. that said if i had ordered on October 13 ahead of 13000 of the 15000 other pre-orders I probably would be getting a little impatient.

As always thank you for all of the insight you provide I hope you realize it is greatly appropriated ...and ...just out of curiosity is there any chance you know when i will get my car
