I'm pretty sure there will be allocations for May and possibly June. We should have much clearer view of what's ahead by end of the week. It's hard to estimate how fast we will move when comparing Jan/Feb/March allocations due to the shutdowns that happened earlier this year and the backlog created but things seem to be moving faster now. I'm estimating that most of the April allocations will be built late June/early July with July/August deliveries. Might be wishful thinking but I think it will be close.
I'm currently at 1100 with Kerbeck and I hope to get to 3000 in a few weeks. Please keep updating this thread, the excitement is killing me lol

I think it is a week or bi-weekly sliding window but I’m not 100% sure.
so it could have been last Thursday, this Thursday, next Thursday, etc.. that depends on when the dealer gets their spot.
i don’t believe (again could be 100% wrong) GM releases all the allocations to every dealer on the same day at once. If it is all at once and I’m wrong, then it is most likely the 3rd Thursday (so the 15th) or the week after (22) in which case your dealer has until that Saturday at 9pm EST to submit the order before it is locked in

My guess is there will definitely be allocation in May & June. I even believe I read somewhere that the last day GM will be "accepting orders", read "allocation", will be Thursday, June 17th. The question is, "how many" for each dealer? I have a deposit in with one of the big three, whose allocation numbers per month for the last year have swung from a low of 75 cars allocated, to a high of 160. That is a big difference in my opinion and a bit unsettling as we careen towards the end of the MY. My hope is that GM will release May & June numbers at the same time and soon (there is recent precedent for this). That way, at least people on the waiting list will know for sure if they are getting a 2021 or will be put off until 2022 allocation starts up (which is expected to be July)…
my guess would be April was last 2021 MY allocation cycle- but like all of us here - no one knows for sure until Gm makes an announcement
