But, I just don't see the connection you are trying to make.
Just saying he included ABL in a sentence with two things that appear not to be ready right away. It's a stretch, I agree, but this is all I've got to work with. Desperate for some ABL news, positive or negative, and what they plan on doing to ABL cars.

Hopefully we all hear something. But it's got to be real soon, otherwise these cars become untouchable and there's nothing we can do on our ends to change our order.

if GM delays production on cars getting the ABL does that mean if I was 8th in line getting a 1SS and all the allocations in front of me are either 2LT or 2SS that would mean I get the first car produced and delivered to the dealership after the initial run of V6's came in?

There's a big difference between "Can't answer!" and "I have not been informed about the status of ABL or any possible backup plan".

I already know Scott isn't speaking and I already know ABL news won't come out till it's too late to do anything about it. It doesn't hurt to try though. And in the end, we can either look back and say "We made much ado about nothing" or "We were told to keep quiet, we were told to keep the faith, and we were let down." For GM's sake, I hope it's the former.

Scott is the manager of displays and even HE can not state which cars are at which shows...

Why is the fate of ABL in his hands? Maybe President Obama can straighten this out.

It appears to have become a Federal case!

If there is a constrain on ABL then you'll probably be skipped until they get the problem resolved or GM comes out of the closet and announces that there wont be ABL offered.

Scott possibly "can't answer" since he might not know.

Look...ABL stuff doesn't come up on a whim. There obviously is a problem or they would have said it was fine...and showed it.

Obviously there is a problem

But, maybe Scott can't say since....he.....doesn't.....know.....if.....it.... ..will.....be....ready.

When the car comes out and everything is fine, these threads are going to look dumb.

I really don't think the other half would really care or else they'd be here complaining with you guys.

Then if they don't give a sh!t how their car is built, tell them to quit complaining about those members that DO care.

EDIT: Or, maybe those members that don't care and think this thread will look dumb are ordering 1LT's or 1SS's w/out ABL.

Some members want to voice opinions. It's fine until it gets to be a ritual to post 10 times about the subject per day. It seems as though there's a LOT of concerned members seeing as though there are UMPTEEN MILLION threads covering ABL. So, NO...I don't think it's that "dumb" of a topic.....period.

id say about right before the start of production GM is going to spill their guts and say we are sorry to inform you that the ABL feature on the camaro is not ready, so we added one more hp to keep you guys happy.

j/k no really we need to get the guy how Is working on the issue and send him an email everyday asking him, so did you fix it?
