But GM (BG assembly plant) is also at the mercy to the vendors/suppliers they qualfiied & ultimately chose... the delay we're seeing is the ramifications. There's more to this I'm sure that we're not aware of, of course... like a tip of the iceberg. Maybe GM's due diligence on their selected vendors/suppliers were subpar (or half-azz), or maybe they just forecasted inaccurately in regards to the demand for Z51 package and CF related options. Who knows at this point but we're the ones who have no choice except to suck it up and vent/rant in public... I won't lose sleep over it, just wait it out.
