    PSA Regarding Bayed / Shipping

    4300 is intermediate delivery (i.e. it's in a railyard that isn't the final destination) so it can go back to 4B00 and 4200 for the next leg of the journey. Once it gets off the train, it will hit 4800, then it can go back to 4B00 and 4200 again when the truck takes it from the destination...

    Delivery Thread - Post Pictures Here!

    Cool idea, but I should probably stick to the basics for now...

    I actually ended up at my credit union by refinancing through AAA. They're technically military affiliated (from a local air force base), but I don't have any military ties. They'll gladly take your membership fee and welcome you into the fold. I've worked with them on multiple car loans and a...

    Cadillac advisor told me mine was on a train when it was actually on a truck to the dealer, so I have hope for you... Fingers crossed!

    I'm on the regular BuyPower card, which has no limits or expirations, so it may be different. It sounds like GM has a mess of conflicting rewards programs which may be confusing things. They also have the My GM Rewards program (separately branded for each GM brand) which is totally separate. But...

    Dealer told me the same thing. Called the card support line twice while fighting with them, and they told me that I could absolutely use the points on the Blackwing and the dealer just needs to call the redemption hotline while I'm there. The dealers just don't want to put in the work.

    Goat Rodeo

    How about annual goat rodeos at goat-themed bars around the country?

    Goat Rodeo

    If you do the Portsmouth one, there's some phenomenal coastal routes along the way--up through Rye Beach and then out by the Wentworth. I'd legitimately be in favor of that.

    It's only a rodeo if you walk in there with a cowboy hat and boots

    Damn, should've told my dad to wait a month 😂 Every day he seems to be making out better: ordered the car after me, got it sooner with less time from start of production to actual delivery even though it crossed a damn ocean, got better communication from the dealer and easy tracking, and got a...

    That's what I'm going to do. Sales manager kept saying he wouldn't do it. I'm going to keep pushing and make a big stink if he doesn't at least try. One simple thing took my experience with them from an unenthusiastic but more than ok A- to a passionate F in one day.

    They offered my dad 1.9% or $500 cash. So not huge, but enough to make a difference. Small stuff like that makes you feel like the company actually cares about your business.

    I have $1k saved up over six years specifically for this purpose (well, originally for the ATS-V, but same idea) so I'm going to be bullshit if I can't use it for this car, especially since the entire pitch is it's good for any GM vehicle and it can't be used for anything else. I've got better...

    I mean BMW is doing it for M cars. It just depends whether a car company's finance wing views their service as a customer benefit or as a sales tool. If it's just a sales tool, then no, there's no reason to provide preferential financing to cars that are already in high demand. But if it's a...

    Here's the TDSI distribution center map: CSX.com - TDSI Locations Probably depends on which center is closest to you if it came with us to East Brookfield or went south to Ridgefield Heights.

    Still waiting. I'm betting that @Ungwei is with us, unless they sent his car from NY.

    Dude, Where's My Car?

    You're probably stuck in East Brookfield/Spencer, MA with me. Been there since at least Thursday. I guess they don't have enough cars to justify a transport, and couldn't find a driver even if they did, so the cars just sit there indefinitely. And GM won't let the dealerships arrange their own...

    Dealing with this now, seems like the issue--both for 0.9% and BuyPower Rewards--is they haven't added the Blackwings as legitimate 2022 GM models yet. @Mirza Grebovic I'm sure this is outside your wheelhouse, but any contacts on the GM finance side that can see about getting these models added...

    Still no movement on my car... It's a coin toss, but I almost feel like it's worse to have it trapped at the destination railyard than back in New Boston or Toledo since, in theory, it already did the hard part of the trip--you wouldn't think getting it on a truck for the last few miles would be...
