Am I the only girl on here :-) When I got ny C6 there were quite a few. Maybe I should do a poll when I'm on my computer. I don't know how to do one on my phone. Just curious how many girls on here are getting C7's.

I just learned how to do a poll yesterday! You start a new thread and put in your question. Then go to bottom and select poll then put in the number of questions you have and post, it will redirect you where you can put your options in.

Example:
Do you have a C7 on order?
1. Female
2. Male
3. FAY

Thanks Durnberg. I don't see it on my phone. I'll have to try it later when I'm on my computer.

It took me about two hours with several missteps but it was really neat to finally see it up and running. There is a character limit on your options but it is set at 100 so it shouldn't be a problem. Also it will time out after 5 minutes once you post the initial thread. That's the confusing part for me as you have to submit the thread (and after selecting poll/number of questions) first then the poll option appears and then you put in your question and answer options. Good luck, i had fun with it.

I went into Mac Haik in April to ask about orders and pricing but got nowhere other than the deposit:
Me- ok but what is your price relative to msrp?
Sales lady - we don't have pricing from gm yet so can't answer?
Me- I realize that, but how much as a percentage of msrp?
Sales lady- like I said, we don't know how much gm will be asking?
Me- so what does that matter?
Sales lady- we should have pricing soon, check back.
It was like an Abbott and Costello routine.

BTW, I am not a lady but I have been told I throw a baseball like a girl!

:-) Lone Star is selling at MSRP. I believe they still have allocations. Ask for Harry Doggett. Tell him Joy sent you :-)
