That's two to three months. I didn’t forget. If I special order a vehicle I do not want it sitting in a holding lot for 3-6 months. That’s my choice and I doubt I am the only one. Plus if you read above, the truth is, vehicles that sit on dealer lots are not left in the same spot for months on end and they are washed on a regular basis. That’s the point and there is no debating it but yet you have members on this forum that will debate it for whatever reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vehicles are designed and built to be outside 24/7. If you don’t like it and don’t want to accept delivery that’s up to you. Other people wouldn’t care and that’s also perfectly fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact - it can cause permanent damage especially considering the thin paint/clear coat layer these days that prevents remediation with paint correction methods. So if it’s sitting outside in the elements for months without any attention (acid rain for instance is a thing), it would most certainly cause damage that cannot be corrected without a repaint. Again, some won’t care, I’ve already acknowledged that. Read up… That’s not the debate here anyway, vehicles sitting at random holding lots is different than sitting on dealer lots. Fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
