Well, someone near Richmond VA might get lucky. I had to decline the delivery date.
Over the weekend I saw my edit disappear and my trade in eval/financing info buttons turned grey to yellow. I'm out of town by my husband was kind enough to do the photos for my trade in and send them to me which I uploaded. I called my credit union on Monday and got my loan arranged (asked for a pre-approval and they went ahead and approved the whole thing even without a VIN/final agreement--apparently as long as they get the info within three months it works for them??!! Then again I have banked there for more than 25 years, they know my balances, they get my military retirement check every month, and my FICO is >800).
Yesterday I got the first email contact--the car would be in Richmond on 25 August, and my delivery was scheduled for 28 August. Unfortunately I have a huge trip to visit my ailing mother, and I leave on the 28th. Sigh. So, I emailed back all the information. The guy assigned to me called, had a nice chat wherein he was very kind. But, needless to say, they can't hold the car on the lot for me until 12 September (when I'd be back home and could drive to Richmond, 2.5+ hrs away). He offered to try and make the 27th work and 'rush' the processing. I'd rather wait that get rushed, and given the way things sometimes go, perhaps not make it. Then I'd really be stuck. So I officially declined that first delivery date and car.
Kind of expected the delivery to be during the one time frame it was impossible and was not disappointed. Oh well, more time to get my detached garage wired up properly!
