Default Re: How long to get one?

I am having serious doubts that each dealer is being honest.

One dealer was telling me he had 25 people on a waiting list and he would get 3-5 cars a month. That seems to have been the straightest answer I received.

Another guy said he didn't know what he was going to get but that he would get them as soon as the end of this week or maybe next week. How could he not know the color, number, option packages? How could he not have his own waiting list?

Seems to me it makes no sense to be dishonest here because the cars are pre-selling themselves. Better to set real expectations so you end up with satisfied customers. But then again I am not a salesperson or marketeer.
