That you're the 311th person on the Dealers waitlist for a C8?...You need to find out how many allocations per month that Dealer gets in order to estimate your wait time...

Depending your dealer's allocations, it could be either a very good # or a very bad #...............

From May to December would be, at the lowest estimate, a 42 position jump, BUT NOOOOOOOO... I only moved up 4 positions to #61 by the end of December. WTF???
I called my salesman, got back every red cent for my trade-in, made a couple of phone calls to friends, and now I'm #1 at one dealership and #6 at another for under MSRP.

Back in May 2022, I got on the waiting list at #65 at Karl Chevrolet, who said they deliver 6 to 8 new C8's per month.

Nope, not sharing. They're doing it just for me since my buddy works there.
Too far away, too much hassle to ship it, and too much hasslle to get the time off work to go get it.
