From what I read I would be cautiously optimistic with the dealer you ordered from. Of the 7-8 dealers I reached out to in the Mid-Atlantic, none mentioned that they could pressure Chevrolet for an allocation because they have a deposit. Usual response was that they find out every Thursday what allocations they have available and that they couldn't guarantee anything of when they would get the allocation, after talking to those dealers I found one that happened to have an open allocation and that was on a Thursday. I would certainly talk to several dealerships versus just one. If you feel like sticking to the one dealer then I'd reach out to them often about allocations and if it drags out for over a month or two months then find another dealer.
