Yes, the Grabber Blue one!
I bought a new house during the pandemic. It was the fastest closing I’ve ever had as I still had to show up to the attorney’s office, but they put me all alone in the conference room with a pen and the stack of papers to sign (all pre-tagged so I wouldn’t miss any spots). In and out in 25 minutes! The next morning, the proceeds from the sale of my old house were wired into my account. Sooooo easy.
I don't blame companies for not wanting to get involved in a political debate when the electorate is polarized. So no doubt GM doesn't win any points for switching sides. However, Ford did as well. It led the charge to have the Trump administration change the fuel economy standard -- which created the mess -- before signing onto the CARB agreement.
I can empathize....my spouse was adamant that I NOT choose Grabber Blue. She claimed it looked too much like a toy and not a grown up vehicle. Fight the battles you can win gentlemen.
Those there sound like fighten words. Is that a challenge
. The finish on all them looks real good but it is scientific fact that some colors are just faster, less drag, and then you throw a set of slow red calipers into the mix; just saying . Can't let those grabber blue guys get to cocky. 
I wanted Rapid Red (most of the time I pick red) but she wanted a different color. I choose to fight other battles I could win and we ended up ordering Infinite Blue Metallic. I did get AWD but she balked at the price addition for the ER battery so reluctantly we have the SR one. She's not furious with me now for ordering the car.
I cant believe the powers that be have not yet worked out the shipping issues. I appreciate that what with Covid and all it probably put a spanner in the works but they surely have had long enough to sort something out. Being totally selfish, how difficult is it to go from the factory to Veracruz and put some on a boat to Europe. Given the size of the US I can see that that might cause a bit more of an issue. Hopefully we will all get our cars very soon. ? ?
I think the real issue is timing. Until they resolved the last issue with the car that needed to be fixed, they couldn't book space on a specific ship/sailing. Now they have to get allocated space at the last minute, which can't be easy - they'll likely have to piecemeal the first cars over whatever space remains on imminent departures. The same is probably true for rail lines - there is a complex network of rail lines owned by different entities each with their own scheduling. That's probably why they're supplementing with trucks, although those too aren't necessarily just sitting around waiting for a call from Ford.
It can be very difficult. Restriction are changing everyday. One day you think i'll be able to ship these by boat to the port of portugal or spain. Schedule everything in 2 weeks which is unreasonable but for the purpose of this convo 2 weeks. Get to day before shipping day you load the trucks and send them to the port only to find out that evening the government shut down the country. So now you cant ship it.
