Like I said in the other thread, let the countdown begin. And yes, GM has only published "estimated MSRP", but if they hike theirs by, say 6-7K, I'm pretty sure we all know why.

If there is any price increase I will be dropping my reservation. The only other person I know with a reservation said the same.

Welcome to the forum @Silevrado! Which Silverado model have you reserved?

The WT.

The price was the compelling reason to buy. If it goes up I'll wait for a Colorado EV. Honestly I wish Chevy and Ford started with their mid range. I'm afraid it's 5 years until we see an EV Colorado, Canyon, and Ranger, but perhaps I'll be wrong. They still offer an ample size for passengers, hauling for the average DIYer, and the smaller size than Silverado and F150 should boost the range a bit.

I agree I don’t really need nor want a full sized truck but we don’t have many options when it comes to EV trucks. I too am looking at a WT, $60k+ for any vehicle is insane and unaffordable given all the data we have on the average Americans income. I am investing and saving all I can to make this purchase make financial sense but if I am priced out my current fallback is probably a Maverick.

I had the Maverick on my list too. Price is fantastic, great fuel efficiency, and decent utility but I think I need a slightly bigger cabin for the family. It might working but have some more room is becoming more necessary.

With the new legislation, if GM is eligible for the tax incentive again we can expect that they raise their prices by at least whatever the tax incentive is. So stupid that the government says you get $7500 off an EV's price, yet the manufacturers just raise their price by that amount so it's only there to line the manufacturers pockets and does nothing but confuse the consumer.

It’s worse because for some couples, especially with dependents it can be hard to have enough income to qualify for the full credit. In addition to pumping more money into the economy during inflation results in more inflation. As someone who benefited from the tax credit first time around it seems this tax credit was designed to hurt us and benefit the corporations and people at the top.

Me, too. I don't want to encourage bait and switch sales tactics. I'm satisfied with my car and can walk away from the Silverado if they go back on their word.
