If you knew that, then you wouldn't be complaining right now. I'm trying to figure out why people thought it was pre-order means you're buying the car when GM clearly said it wasn't that way back before they took pre-order number 1.

The reason was because they didn't want to have anything on constraint if they could help it.
I'm trying to understand you here. In the first post, you state "you read the instructions and literature that GM had put out". Then in the second post you state that "it was plastered all over the IDL". I would like you to provide me the "instructions and literature that GM had put out which you had read".
