*ano727, if ever mapaisip kang bumili ng TrailB ulit, you're always welcome in the club.

Wala pa ring tatalo sa tiyaga namin dati. It took us 6 months mula nung nagbayad kami ng reservation fee before we got our Fortuner dati.

*numbah5 - you read my mind! Yan nga ang plano ko, perhaps in a year or two, dagdag ko sa garage ko ang TBZ. Baka by then, meron nang 4x2 AT.

Let's not lose hope! I have a lot of experience in this area. When the Honda Civic VTEC was released in 1996 it took 4 months to get my a unit. When the Toyota Revo Automatic was first released in 1998 I waited for almost 7 months to have my unit and I got it from a provincial dealer. When I got a Honda Accord for my Dad in 2004 I waited for two months. Even for the 1990 Nissan Sentra my first brandnew car, I have to wait for one and a half months for the unit. Even the Hyundai Sta Fe which I considered first before TBZ came, I may have to wait for months since the dealer in Taguig told me that those who purchase by financing are the priority. For the TBZ, I reserved October 31, 2012; then the unit was delivered November 7, 2012 even when I paid in cash. Pag bagong release talagang it takes time to increase the production. I agree with the comments that the Chevrolet Dealers and Sales Persons need a lot of improvement compared to the dealers of the other brands.

Di ba I mentioned on my previous posts that she said January na ang commitment nila? I'm speaking with all of them. The SA, Manager and the Owner. The SA and Manager committed this week kaya tinawagan ko sila today para sabihan na tumigil na sila sa pag-promise.

Sayang pa naman, I think TBZ is such a good car to own. Pero dealers give a bad image to Chevy as a whole.

Again, congrats to those who have persevered (and sometimes just lucky) to wait and got their nice TBZ in time!

*TheBigDaddy good luck in your car shopping! I'm sure you will find the right one for you and your family.

Thanks. In one day the other brand processed my order without any commitment. That's customer service.

Okay lang naman maghintay basta walang promises.

An area for improvement by Chevrolet dealers and salespersons ay "magpakatotoo". Let's not allow them to steal our joy and peace of mind

Agree! And this is not just for Chevy or any car dealer. In any kind of transaction be it big like cars or small ones like a parol, being honest with the customer will go far better than concocting stories na parang pantakam lang.

I'm sorry to hear that *TheBigDaddy couldn't wait for his unit anymore, well perhaps in a couple of years mabilis na din transaction with the Chevy and it's Trailblazer :-)

Yeah, maybe we'll wait nalang for the 4x2 AT.

Right now the Pajero and the CX-9 are tempting.
