"Real" timetable for Silverado EV availability

[Charjd]

A few weeks ago I talked to a sales rep at a local (Provo) Chevy dealer. I was hoping to get some information. I said, "Isn't the WT [Silverado EV Work Truck for fleets] supposed to start rolling out soon?" He said, "Where did you hear that?" I told him I read it different places. I've read they will start being delivered Spring '23. He said it would be 2024. Well, it's almost Spring '23 now. Recently there was talk of the first WT rolling off the assembly line. I guess there is good reason for Chevy dealers not to recklessly raise expectations and risk disappointed customers. But there is also reality. Why is it so difficult to get any information?

Because dealers are the last to get any info.

I never trust a dealer - as soon as their mouth opens......

I keep hearing Spring 2023 for the introduction of the Silverado EV Work Truck. It seems to be pretty consistent. Well, it's just a few days away from the official first day of Spring. I think everyone is really excited to see the first production vehicle. It amazes me that with the level of interest, there is absolutely no hint of any news yet. They always test vehicles in various locations. You'd think somebody would see something. It will probably happen quite suddenly with no warning. It could happen any day.

From what I was told, the very first Silverado EV will be the fleet / commercial buyers this spring.

Then the RST buyers this summer.

And lastly the WT1, 2, 3, 4 buyers this winter....
