Hi, I spoke to my local dealer about ordering a new Express and he said you have to be a fleet customer with a FAN and even then there was no guarantee and that it would take almost a year. Does anybody know if just the general public can walk in most Chevrolet dealers and order an Express? What the dealer told me through email sounded like I wouldn't be able to order one. I'm not a fleet customer and I don't even know what a FAN is.

Thank you

 

Good luck. And yes it can take up to a year from my experience. Try finding a new van in stock.

 

You definitely can. I had two dealers put in orders for me as retail in June, but wound up finding a Savana on a lot. Was told 10 months at best for the Express orders. Make lots of calls. Good luck.

p.s. I don’t know which one you’re after, but I have a theory that the only way to get the V8 may be with the extended wheelbase. I kept striking out at first asking for V8 regular base, but was able to order and eventually find one in the wild once I opened up to extended. Just my experience YMMV.
