So they are on Hold because VW ****ed up. GM should charge VW for costing them money and time

Aint it great how the epa got ALL of the attention off of them over that spill, and are now the saviors of the public again all in one fail swoop. I'm not condoning what vw did, but the timing of it just seems way to coincidental. And all these articles are pushing invisible emissions dangers, sc a ring the unknowing public away from diesels all together.
No Rick the plant it's self can not run at the speed we need to run at full time. We have been going 7 days a week for the most part for almost 2 years know.
I was wondering the same thing the other day. Sure haven't seen or even heard of anyone with one.
Pretty sure the VW fiasco has them on hold. I believe I read that after the VW diesel fiasco, the EPA came out with new testing mthods to measure the emissions, so it had to be recertified under the new regs.
Just got confirmation today from the dealer that mine has been accepted for production. I'm hoping its here before Christmas so Santa Claus can leave me a BDS lift and some nice wheels and tires under the tree.:thumb: I ordered it the week before Halloween. So I'm glad things are finally moving with it. Im pumped.
I have to say after seeing pics of the actual truck compared to it's predecessor, I wished I could afford one.
Mine is a Canyon SLT in Cyber Grey Metallic.....just can't get passed the mini van looking style of the Colorado. IMO the Canyon looks just like an HD but smaller. Can't wait to get it.
So far I've had 4 different TPW's. I had gone out to broadcast for a TPW this week before it got pushed to 12/14. I checked in earlier today and I'm back to 3000 with no TPW.
So far I only know of 2 trucks (built this week) that are destined for the wild. We should be seeing a few at least trickle into dealers within the next month.
I just noticed for the first time (its been a few weeks since I last looked) you can select the duramax option on the Chevrolet/GMC website when building a colorado/canyon
Saturday I got confirmation of build week date of 1/18. So much for getting it before Christmas.....
We heard that delivery is being delayed until towards the end of Q1 2016 due to the VW saga and additional testing. I hope I'm proven wrong.

Between us being overloaded with orders and VW added to it. There will be more testing to make sure nothing fails. EPA is targeting our truck for testing.
Yeah no. Pretty sure that's not accurate.
Wait. Did they confirm the 8 speed will be put in? If so I'd certainly wait.
Haven't heard anything about that, unless I misread the convo

In transit to dealer right now, supposedly.
That is my truck. It was released for shipment over a week ago but then was pulled back with a hold and is sitting in Wentzville. It is currently at 4300. I have no idea when it will be shipped but it is my understanding the EPA testing is complete. I am aware of three other completed trucks that I believe are in the same situation.
Does anyone know the reason for the hold or if it is short term or long term? I believe it applies to all diesels.
When they release it it is only a six hour truck ride away.
