Any updates on Stingrays? C8tracker couldn't pull window stickers yesterday.
Am I the only one who thinks the odds of the bowling green crew calling it a day at 10AM and only producing Z06's seems exponentially more likely than the window sticker tool randomly breaking down and not producing windows stickers ONLY for Stingray and ONLY for new vehicles made this week but old ones are still fine? With the massive slump in production, random half and full days off, it seems more likely they just didn't build any Stingrays. Sad but true. Really hope I am wrong.

Though deep down I have the same feeling; if you check c8tracker this morning, there are a few new stingray vins posted. Just no window sticker available for them yet. I believe there was a 35997. So hopefully they are actually at 36050+ coming into this morning.
Sorry all, on vacation this week. Tried to run my tool, but hotel wifi seems to not be good enough. Keeps dying partway through. @GoldRose85 if you can handle the rest of the week, I'd appreciate it. I'll be back up and running once I get home Saturday. Thanks!
Well,all of our tracking may be significantly askew.
my VIN is 36963 and Shane just told me it started on the production line yesterday, and will finish today.
Based on the slowdowns/holiday shutdown it was more likely to slide to July 12th.
I can almost guarantee that there’s a misunderstanding regarding your car. The tracker has never been off by more than a couple. Being off by 1,000 is pretty unlikely.

I'll take care of the spreadsheet this week..
Enjoy your vacation !

I wouldn’t over think it. There have been issues with the system that generates the window stickers before. A few months ago it didn’t work for a single day. Then almost exactly a month ago it wasn’t generating new window stickers for about a week. Both times this happened the existing window stickers were still available.
Chances are basically 100% this is just an issue with the window sticker system. It’s not just stingrays, no window stickers are available. The guys on MECF posting Z06 production numbers aren’t using window stickers.
Stingray 36179 has been built, as has 70th anniversary 03825 and Z06 3248, and 70th anniversary Z06 00626
Please note that more may have been built, but we know that AT LEAST this many of each are now built.
Total 197 for Tuesday

I'll cheer you up; you're wrong. We just toured the plant, and Z06s and Stingrays were completely mixed together on the line. They used to build them in groups of like colors, but even that's gone away with the new paint system. I think the only time they would intentionally build a group of the same configuration would be as a test run of, say, E-rays that aren't being sold.
As far as shutting down early, it would have to have been planned into the system to keep things running smoothly.
