[QUOTE="ojamali, post: 76437, member: 2023"] Its certainly not because of the lack of orders. And whether Gm Canada has shorter supply will be more clear once April sales figures are released. Its true that last year GM continued to deliver C7's at some dealers in winter and this year there were very few vehicles delivered in winter due to the tire cracking issue so now they need to makeup for the lack of shipments to Canada in the coming months. I was told by my GM Rep in Feb that they intend to built atleast the same number of 2015 C7's this year if not more. This was soon after they assigned the additional 3 allocations back in Jan. So for GM Canada to deliver the same number of C7's in 2015MY they need to deliver an average of 400 C7's each month from April till July. Last year they delivered around 150 each month from April-August. The demand is higher than supply and reducing supply makes it worse. The traditional practices are to either increase production or increase prices or both. In Canada with the sinking dollar the increase has been even more. Also in Canada GM employees, Dealership Employees and Suppliers get no additional discounts or preference to get the vehicle so it discourages them to submit an order therefore reducing demand further.
