Default Tpw ????

Last week I had a TPW of 10/8. This week my TPW has slipped to 11/12. The strike only lasted 2.5 days. The slippage must be due to the problems with the 4LT interior. Any thoughts?

probably a little to do with the strike but moreso the constraints they've been having on the 4LT......

I would say it's due to the 4LT.

Last week (Thur.) started with no constraints in the AM. But by the middle of the afternoon, 4LT had been put on constraint. Also, 4LT has been on constraint most weeks since the 08s started down the line at the end of June.

Jim's right (above). I know at least a couple are thinking of changing out from 4LT due to the long wait, but if it were me and I initially wanted it, I'd hang in there. At least it will be one of the very few made in early to mid-'08 model run. Exclusive!!!!

Has anyone heard of any confirmed strike related slippage on the 3LT Vettes?

I am waiting for my new TPW date to be provided.
On Monday morning, just before the strike, it was finally at status 3400 for TPW 10.01.

Does anyone know if the BG plant went back to full production Thursday?
