Marlow, no, but my TPW is next week. It could be built this week though. Don't know how long it will take after status 3800, but once QA releases it should just be a couple of days. So, next status is 3800 (built), then QA releases it for shipment, then wait for enough going in the same direction (not long for us in this area).

Hi John,

Did the ddealer tell you what the expected to be delovered by month is for your allocation?

Dave, looks like you are on the right track. Also, don't worry if your order only shows status 1100. I put my deposit down back around April, just a waiting list. Then in August it was entered as an official GM order against the dealer's allocation of 6. My order did not leave status 1100 until January. Now it is 3400 - next step completed car, but I'm still on pins and needles.

So now to the third dealer, I am getting this dealers first allocation scheduled for delivery before June 2011
which fits my expectationsvery well, I want to wait as long as possible before exposing it to salt and still be sure of recieving a 2011 model, these will always be in short supply and are being built before they figuer out how to make them cheeper.
The only down side with this dealer (that I know of so far) is that he is 2.5 to 3 hours a way from me in Pinconning, MI (at least I dident have to go out of state). He took a deposit over the phone via credit card and should be emailing me a order number on Tuesday (this seems to be the only day GM acepts new orders) or possibly Monday becaust they actualy have allready ordered on this allocation for the dealership and they are not sure if they can gust assign that order number to me. Sense that order has not yet passed the 1100 stage they make changes on what options and colors are ordered.

The first it turned out was out of allocations, and had others waiting in front of my order, at first they told me I would get in in June or July (I dident find out til later that they ment 2012), they told me this after taking my deposit.

Which I got back a few days later after learning on this site about tracking orders and the dealer could not even give me a order number.

The Second which also took a $500 deposit from me, had one allocation left and he gave me an order and a I tracked it only to find out that having an allocation dident necessarly meen you will even recieve a 2011 model. It turns out that this allocation was estimated for delivery by December 2011.
I will be picking up this deposit on Monday.

Congratulations John on being so close.

I understand that a lot of the first Michigan orders should be arriving in the comming weeks, there will be some dealers with a demo, and most of those demos will be offered for sale, if not now with in a month or so, so they wont last long.

I am back to square one so to speak, I am on my third dealer.

to be continued, I just found out there is a 1000 character limit here.

Cool! My Volt order is status 3400, TPW of 02/07. Getting excited. My charger arrived, but DTE asked me to hold off on the install because they will install it for free and put in a second line and second meter for it. Their program is "within 2 weeks" of activation.

I actualy live near M59 & US 23, and do have DTE power

Marlow, I presume that you live in the Detroit area, based on being approved for the DTE program.
