I’m wondering if this is accurate or if AD’s are showing preference to customers who spend large figures with them. After buying and sending business to my AD, one would think they should of called already.

Does any one have experience on this. Or if any one been called from a waiting list. Please share thanks.
The wait lists are bogus! Don't waste your time. AD's only sell steel sports to their VVIP clients at retail, and directly to grey market dealers at over list. Why would they sell to you (or me) when they can sell to their good clients who spend 50-100k in their store, or to grey market dealers at a much higher profit margin (while they also make them buy unwanted two tone models)? Think about it.
