Said it from the start the dealer body is the one paying for the strike. Car prices will be rising within 6 months I would guess $1,000.00 per.

While the adjustment to loyalty is a good thing, it really doesn't address the elephant in the room. Purchases are way down because we cannot purchase anything. There are two side of the equation and we are losing a lot of money.

We had to overnight oil filters --- and it took 6 days to get them.

Today I lost sales on approximately $4,000 worth of parts because I couldn't provide accurate promise information to our customers. I had to tell them the dealerships where they could purchase the parts - and hope they return once this is all over.

I have spoken to dealerships who have driven hundreds of miles to obtain body parts.

Hopefully we can all have a happy Valentine's Day - that will be when this is fixed. Unless there is a winter storm sometime this ... Winter... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sorry for the question, but what is the email for the Same day adjuster. This will be the first time ever I will try to submit. We have always been above.

One of my stores just got invoice 92k and the other 30k.
Normally we get 17k and around 6k respectively in non strike times.
No truck/trucks yet but we are on the lookout.

I will say one thing, in 30 years of working for GM, I don't think I've ever Sprinted as many parts as I have this last month! GM has definitely been my best customer this month
