i just went into lattof (ced) and talked to a saleswoman about upgrading to a sstc, she said they had no idea when theyre coming in, and she let me in on some info about the axle strike
this is probably old news for some of you, but the axle union is on strike, BUT gm has hired a part time axle plant however they only give a little at a time
perfect timing to go on strike...

Yup they have hired independent shops to make hub parts for the cobalt last order i heard about was 20,000 units, and yeah great timing on the strike, already shut down 30 GM plants now including transmission shops.

so i got more news from my sales manager, looks like my production date went from may 26th to may 5th, so good news for everybody looks like they are picking up slack on production
I'm not intrested in getting an ss/tc, but I'm still waiting for my dealer to get one just so I can "break it in for them" lol go for a test drive. That way I can fell the difference myself.

GM isnt going to outsource and accept a less quality , you guys will be fine .

and even if the axles weren't as good, they'd still be fine...even though you have more power you don't have that instant JERK of tourque that the sc gives you.
