Yup, I've been waiting right with you, Patrick (Tingle49), Aquaman, Rainman, and the others on the board.

Right now there's nothing out that interests me. looked at what you purchased, didn't do anything for me. I'll wait, maybe another Harley.

Hey Mayberry RFD, good luck on getting yours, who knows they might even build mine before the end of the zero 60 promo, that my end date unless they extend it.

Sorry RFT, read the letters wrong

Wow, is that the best you could do? You should at least edit it if you're going to make it look like a typo. Not a problem, order status codes are changing.

After all this time, I'm not giving up with another 2 weeks to go before possible delivery.

On the 9th I asked my dealer to prepare to search for one without the UAF if it was delayed again. I too have reached the last straw, I like the car too much to look for a different model. Otherwise I would keep my current hatchback which carries a fair amount and gives me 32-33 mpg in mixed driving.

Build date

Just spoke with my dealer, said my build date was still 3-16 no change at this time so I've got to believe the windows are being built before panels, hope 0-60 still available next month or the dealer will have an extra HHR

I wouldn't worry too much about any incentives going away in the near term...the new vehicle market will be in the toilet for some time to come.
