at this point not much i can do, nobody going to back out of their order. The sales pretty confident that people will start to get refund on the deposit.
My sales person just confirmed last night that they have allocations. 5 over 5 years. I thought it’s 3 year run but whatever at least he confirmed it. I’m in AB
saw this on YT. first run 4000 units. if i got it right from translator.
