You didn't specifically ask me but I would listen to the people that being rational, regardless of their position.

Since I am one of the people that has not ordered, I obviously do not feel the outrage that some members have at being forced to sit and watch while other people are getting their cars while I'm not. Oh wait ... I do have to sit and watch while other people get their cars. Difference is, my wait is several times longer than yours is.

You bring up the point of perspective. We all see things a different way because of where we are. Nothing at all wrong with that. But the assumption that everyone makes, regardless of their opinion on the matter, is that their own perspective is the 'true' one and everyone else must adjust accordingly. This is foolish. GM wants to sell as many cars as they can at the highest profit possible. Same for the dealers. Customers want perfect cars as soon as possible. There is an obvious conflict here, the most profitable course of action for GM is not to give customers cars in the sequence in which they ordered, and its also impossible for them to build a perfect car. Me? I have nothing to personally gain from any of this. If I complain, my car won't arrive any faster, and if I defend GM I won't be making any more money. I simply want to offer my opinions and knowledge to the enthusiast community and to help deflate problems that get blown out of proportion.
