TPW Question

Not sure if this has been ansked/answered but.....

When you get a TPW of say 4/27-5/3 (mine).

What exactly does that mean since the car can take several days or more to build from start to finish? Because, if your production started near the middle-end of that week, it may not be actually complete until near the middle-end of the following week.

What I mean is, does TPW refer to: (1) the week in which production on your car will start; (2) the week in which production should be completed; (3) the week during which some benchmark during construction should be met; or (4) something else?

Just curious.

4. Somewhere in the ballpark of when your car will be built. Most seem to taking at least a week longer than the TPW. It is just a rough estimate.

TPW = a fake date that is given to Chevrolet's most loyal customers who placed pre-orders to shut us up for a while....

How long is a car on the production line from start to finish? I don't think it takes several days, I guess less than one day, Any other guesses?
