RE: Who has a 2008 Challenger on order?
Dave:
If you think this waiting game is bad, wait until you get the "False alarm" delivery notice.
Last Thursday, my dealer called me at around 3:30 p.m. and told me my car was on a truck on I-75, about 30 miles south of Detroit, and heading towards Cincinnati. He said it would be delivered that night, but since Friday (July 4) was a holiday, that it would be a few days before I could pick it up.
My most recent VinVision said I hadn't reached KZ status yet, so I expressed some doubt as to his information being correct. He said he wasn't positive, but that the truck driver had told him he had a black Challenger, and he was "pretty sure" that it was my car. He didn't bother to check with the driver for a VIN number.
Well, Saturday morning comes around, and I'm going nuts, knowing I'm getting my car that day. Around 9:00, I get a call from my dealer saying that the car was not mine, and was delivered to another dealership.
So when he calls to tell me it's ready for pickup, I'm going to gobble down a big grain of salt.
Good Luck, and I hope you don't get the "Psyche" phone call.
