Got My Vin!!!
For those in the minority complaining about the service offered by Bowling Green - let me add a vote for 'great service'.
I originally called Kevin a week before my first TPW (I got bumped 2 weeks) and he took my name and said he'd call as soon as I showed up on his list.
I woke up this morning - and there was a voicemail on my cellphone from Kevin saying to call him back, he had my VIN! What a way to start my day!!! He estimates that it'll probably hit the line next Tuesday, and said he'd be happy to take me in to see it on the line if I came to the museum (as long as I gave him some notice).
That's WAY better service than I'd ever have expected from Chevy. Far more than most should/would expect. Hats off to Kevin & co.
Oh, and I'm probably gonna take a ride up and watch her being built!!
"-)
Machine Silver, Steel Gray, 1SB, Nav, XM, Z51 - and now, VIN# 6311

So what "was" your TPW before you got the call? Just trying to get some type of indicator if I may receive a call this week still.

I just got my VIN 6294. Kevin is indeed an excellent guy. He called me back in like 5 minutes, it is great to have a guy like that at a plant. He said i should be on the line tuesday or so. How long does it take usually from getting off the line to deliver? I live in detroit area in michigan so very close to BG.
thanks,

Well -
I ordered from Tom Jumper - the other big Atlanta dealer - and my salesman said that they'd been getting a lot of cars the same week (if they were early-week builds).
My birthday is next Sat... so my fingers are CROSSED!!
