RE: Reason for Shipping Delays
I've got to agree with you, Albeeno. I really can't figure out why Chrysler seems to be limiting the output of the Challengers and is putting out cars that parts aren't even available for (i.e., donut spare tires, when you try to order one through a dealer). It's like they're not really prepared to produce the Challenger and are going about it like the car is an afterthought.
You'd think that with all the problems that were associated with the 08s and the complaints that were lodged, things would be improving now but they don't seem to be. Look at all the people waiting for 6-speeds. And are allocations of any type of car to dealerships the normal way the car business operated? An allocation system implies that there's a shortage of the product.
I've got the feeling that when the Camaro debuts, Chevrolet dealerships will have plenty on hand and in all the configurations people want.
