Hey Scott,

Good to see you on here posting so much. Hate that it had to be the panic du jour.

I know this is a small thing in light of some of the frustations exhibited today, but can you provide any insight on the second letter issue?

What, when, where, how, etc.?

There's a lot of mis-information associated with that as well.

Thanks for your reassuring posts about the re-timed launch. I was more in a wait and see how it played out mode of thinking already, but your response helped ease the anxiety.

War Eagle your about right....So much for being at the dealer pre-ordering at 9:00 am on Oct 13th 2008.I think you might be seeing clearer then the rest of us.THANKS.....

Thank you Scott (can I call you Scott?). With the recent expansion of your job, this time of year must be crazy busy for you. We are greatful that you've taken the time to calm the masses.

Thank you

Am I the only one who takes this with a grain of salt? We had already heard that there wouldn't be a problem with V8's from fbodfather and now we're hearing the exact opposite from GM.

I definitely don't blame fbodfather, but I'd prefer that things weren't said unless they were 100% true and unchangeable.

Thanks very much, that sure does make me feel better!

Of course you can call me "Scott" -

That's my name!

....and besides....I much prefer it to, say, Shirley .....or Bertha.......

LOL, now this is an uplifting thread.

Nexus6 · 01-09-2009, 11:05 PM

i thought it was a little odd that only two V6's would show up at a dealer if they wanted to sell 100,000 units . This makes much more sense . And again Fbodfather shows us the light .

Dunno exactly you're referring to -- but then again I'm in the middle of Auto Show Season -- and with the addition of Cadillac/Hummer/Saab to my job with Chevy -- not a lot of time right now.........and I've missed the last couple of meetings where that was discussed......

CamaroScotty · 01-09-2009, 11:05 PM

I know I've been called worse!

Bed time now....Got to sell CHEVY'S tomorrow!
