The chip shortage for EVERYTHING started with the pandemic. Then a plant fire. Now floods.
You can't order chips if they aren't there to order.
It's not just cars. It's EVERYTHING.feldsforever, Jarhed1964, kay_ray and 3 others Thank this. -
I got the phone call today. I was told Peterbilt needs to move 3000 trucks nationwide to a build date next year. If I want to keep my October build date it’s $1500. If you volunteer to wait then there’s no $1500 surcharge and you get a 2023 model year. He did say that I should be fine with my October build date, it’s the Nov and Dec guys that are taking a chance on getting bumped if they don’t volunteer to wait.

A couple months ago I toyed with the idea of trading off my low milage mint 2010 impala ltz on a newer Nissan altima ....same dealer I bought my silverado from .
The numbers they shot me were insane and I told them to call me back when they're lot is packed with lease and rental returns ....and the repos that people way over payed for and will be upside down on .
Haven't heard a word from them since .Grumppy, mjd4277, Speed_Drums and 2 others Thank this. -

Well i called the dealership again today to get to the bottom of this .talked to the sales manager and he told me that paccar have blocked all orders nationwide for 2-3 weeks. New pricing will be coming shortly . And then they will get new slots so if i try to book a slot again my truck will be built in july 2022 and will prob pay around 4 to 5k extra for the same build.1500 doesnt sound bad anymore.
