Boomzer, are all those GM offers a side benefit of your GM card? Did you have to sign up for special notifications? If I can get another $1k off on top of the conquest cash, that would be grand! It's too late for me to get a new GM card and accrue points, but if I'm lucky enough, I might receive a coupon for Enclave.
The MD dealer i dealt with wasn't really pleasant when we first started negotiating in person. The sales person gave us a nasty look and said the price was way too low. It sounded like he wasn't motivated to sell the car at that price at all. So we left his office and talked directly to his manager. Though at the end we were not able to get the price lowered, at least he took off the doc/registration fees and gave us some free services. Now we just need to do our own tagging and registration.

Glimo: did the dealer in Laurel MD make you come into their offices to do the order, or did they do it over the phone/fax? Due to the distance, and related 295/95/695 traffic, I would like to not waste 45-60 minutes each way in traffic.

We went in person. They didn't say a visit was necessary, but I would've done it anyway since this is a big purchase and too many things can go wrong. If you read the recent posts in the Acadia/Outlook/Enclave thread, you'd probably do the same.

I did not do anything to get the two offers I mentioned. It is probably a good idea to sign up for a card, they fairly regularly send me offers, like double my points, etc. I will get the phone number off the private offer that I called tomorrow and let you know. I can't hurt to call.

That'll be really helpful. When u called the number, did you have to provide them with your GM card information?
The GM flexible card is not as good as before. Only 3% redemption rate now.

What I received was an exclusive private offer valid until 6/18/07. It provided $1500 off on the Chevy Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon & Yukon XL; $1000 off on the Saturn Outlook, GMC Acadia, GMC Envoy and Chevy Trailblazer. The number I called was a general GM number 1-866-908-0008 listed on the offer. They did not ask for my GM card as I don't think they were affiliated. Again, they indicated they could not transfer the offer to the Enclave, but said would put me on a list to be informed of any offers that arise. It definitely could be used in combination with the Conquest rebate. I'm hoping they send something but not counting on it.

Dealer called us on Monday (10 days after we ordered) and said the order has been picked up by the manufacturer but no production date has been assigned. Does anyone have any idea on how long it might take from here on?

I received the same mailing about a month ago. Maybe it was a coincidence, but I had just changed my vehicle preference to the GMC Acadia on the GM Credit Card web site about three weeks prior to that. Unfortunately, we have decidede on the Enclave and don't plan on purchasing it until Labor Day or the last day of 2007.

Even though I leased an Audi Q7 over this past weekend, I came close to leasing an Enclave. Most of the dealers I shopped were willing to lease based on a selling price at $100-200 over invoice price.
