Have you heard that chapman is warning new customers they might never get their orders built? And it's not even 22. My shitty estimation makes me believe they have over 500 orders in
I believe some might never see them due to frustration. Look, after a crappy covid 2020 government should have tried to ease manufacturing by encouraging labor force to go back to work and produce in order to help the industry catch up. Gas(yes let's go there) runs everything, from the shoes you have on your feet to the lettuce you eat. Cost went up due to every factor because we had poor approaches coming out(and into) the shortage crisis.
Some factories are down 35% of its personnel. Its basic math, ain't going to happen unless people are willing to wait LONG.
Some here might hate this but if you can get your hands on a truck now with a reasonable ADM, do it.
You could very well sit most of 2022 waiting for a truck and while you wait watch similar price increases you would be paying to get your truck now and get out of this mess.
Worse you could wait, pay more and end up with a truck with less upgrades(heated steering wheel, seats). GM already said none of these will be present for most of their 2022 trucks so far.
Of course some here will say they got theirs at MSRP, ADM is stupid. Yes you lucked out while this crap is mounting at the factories.
For those who just placed and order, reconsider.
For once my impulsiveness helped me. I wasnt willing to wait for a build knowing of this coming crap fest. Paid $10k over MSRP and have a truck for a few months.
Some the machines I sell will go up 8% in Jan, 3% in March and 3% in June... it's a total fuck fest
