you guys are over thinking this.

Purely automated computer science stuff. You don't think there are camera's monitoring every inch of the assembly line?

Even if the camera idea can't be realized. Would it be so hard to add an email algorithm to email "your order has been accepted. Production date anticipated ******."

Next email: "your car has hit the assembly line!"

Next email: "your car is assembled and is awaiting final inspection."

Etc etc...

It's not like chevy's computer systems don't know the exact status of your order from square 1 to the end. Look at the allocation system. It's all highly organized snd coordinated.
