Waiting sucks. 
Been a month now and my car just went into production. In fact on 5/18 went to 150 status, production started, and as of this morning hasnt budged. I've been calling 800 # daily, checking owners circle, even went in and schmoozed with my sales rep. One of the customer service guys on the 800 service said he remembered speaking with me a few days ago. By the time my rig gets here we'll be best friends.
