If it goes by rail you're screwed. Especially if it goes thru Chicago as most trains do. Mine was built on 04/13 and has to take a train ride to Phoenix. It left Bowling Green on 04/14. It got to Toledo that night. Sat in Toledo for several days then moved to Chicago and sat there a couple days. Since then it's been doing more time sitting than moving. It's currently just outside of Topeka and hasn't moved in almost 24 hours. Very frustrating.
GM sent me their survey to evaluate my dealer and GM hasn't even gotten me my car yet. This isn't the dealers fault. They can't control how GM ships it's vehicles. GM knows there's a rail car shortage ATM and there has been for a few months, yet they continue to ship via rail instead of by truck. I can tolerate and understand the wait to get built and roof shortages etc. I can't tolerate waiting almost a month and counting for a delivery that shouldn't take more than 3 days. At the very least they should offer the option to pay the difference and ship via truck instead.
