Having researched the competition, I was down to 3 cars that will get an honest 40mpg: Accent, Rio5 and Sonic. Sonic is a bit more expensive, but looks better, rides better, has a spare tire (temp.) and I could order what I want. Living in AK, dealerships can be few and far between - closest Hyundai and Kia dealers are over an hour away in Anchorage and they only get the cars that are sent to them - no custom orders. And then there's made in the USA and American union jobs. That counts for a lot with us. So they fired up a 1LT (our Golden Retriever insists on a Hatchback), chipped the ice off of it, and we took it for a slipping' and sliding' test drive. Nice car! Dark colors show the dirt too much, didn't want red or orange, white cars disappear in a snow storm, so we ordered a Silver 1LT, Connection Kit, add Fog lights when it arrives. Got a whopping $250 GM employee discount through my brother-in-law, gave them $500 and now we wait. 60-90 days they say. That's OK, I won't have to buy Blizzaks for it until Fall this way. Here's hoping something good will come out of Wasilla and won't quit on us!
Ordered our Sonic from Wasilla Chevy

Welcome to the forum! Have fun tracking your order! If you weren't shown how to do it, get your order number from your Dealer and track it at www.GMConnects.com
Then wait and complain like everyone else who ordered their Sonic, including me!

Yes, most of them do. The brochure says there is no spare tire or jack in the 1.4 LT sedan w/ 6speed manual trans. I do not know if that is true, perhaps someone with a turbo sedan w/o leather seats can check and tell us.
