  1. Can't tell you if it's normal but the dealership I go to has 14 dealerships with different manufacturers of which I think 7 are chev. Maybe I got lucky.
  2. I was 2 months from order to delivery Couldn't get advanced trailering tho. 6.6 CC LB LT , conv package, roof markers, gooseneck hitch platform. Hope it gets out of the port this week.
  3. Yes. I'll post pics when I get it. Sold the 2017 so truckless for a bit....
  4. Good news , truck is in the port of Montreal . Will post pics when it arrives.
  5. Here is the vin for anyone in the know.
  6. Hey thanks for the info. They are a large dealership here and the sales guy I am dealing with I know personally. I trust the info he has given me but strange things do happen and i will keep folks posted
  7. Good news. Truck to be delivered to the dealer Aug 23rd.
  8. Hi, thanks for the reply. When I ordered the truck the order system would not take the advanced trailering package. So im trying to find an aftermarket system that i don't have to replace valves. I'm good with a repeater I just didn't like that the company neglected to say it in their ad, so I found it a little shady.
  9. Spoke with the dealer. He will get a build date this week but order was put in June 24th and accepted in the system ... update to follow
  10. Ok thanks. I'll check with the dealer. He put the order in and was going to call if it didn't go through but no call so I'm hoping all is good.
  11. Yes, I looked at Bellacorp and was impressed until I saw the disclaimer that you had to install a repeater which they don't show you in the video. Not a big deal but not advising that it is required it gives me pause. Any suggestions from folks that have them would be appreciated . Thanks
  12. Yes , a 22 2500 CC LB. I'll check with the dealer tomorrow for an order number. Apparently July 21st was the start date to build the 22's
  13. I tried to order the advanced trailering package and TPMS for a new build but the system wouldn't accept it. Is there anyway to add something similar aftermarket. I'd like to have temp and pressure on my two trailers as we travel from Canada to SC or FLA a few times a year.
  14. Is there a site to input information to determine if a newly ordered truck is currently being built without going through the dealer to see what the status is? Thanks
  15. I wouldn't do that either. Flat for a short distance (hour or two ) I'd be ok with but hills through that area are a no go. I have pulled our 31ft tt through that area and will only use a 2500 for it. Have done it with an F150 and it felt like the trailer was pushing the truck. Was not a fun experience. Hope that helps some .
  16. Make sure to look at anti sway bars as well as a weight distribution hitch. No need to buy them from the RV dealer either. I'd go to a trailer shop as they will sell you what you need not what they can make the most money on. Post some pics of your setup when you get it.
  17. My .02 you won't have any fun towing that trailer. I have towed at 32' Jayco Jayflight G2 around the same weight and it wasn't a good experience. Even with weight distribution and anti sway the tail will wag the dog on a 1/2 ton. Especially with a rig going by you. Bernoulli's principle the moving air between the truck and car as the truck speeds by causes a decrease in air pressure between the car and truck. The car moves closer to the truck as it passes. The trailer does this with my 2500 HD some and is much worse with the 1/2 ton. My father in law who drove a rig will not tow the trailer with his F150. I would say if you are staying local or off the interstate it will pull it but I would avoid a long trip. Hope that helps some.
  18. Here's my 2017 Dbl cab long box, doing what it's supposed to.
  19. Thanks, i wasn't able to order one as it turns out .
  20. Wed last week it was still avail so hopefully you are G2G
  21. Did you order a CC. If so you could still order one last week. If its a Dbl cab then it'll be a 2021
  22. Had a 2015 and now have a 2017 2500 Silverado HD. 100k on both trucks before brakes or tires. We tow all the time, usually a GN horse trailer or a bumper pull TT. Little pulsating going down a steep hill ( Fancy Gap ) but otherwise they have served us well. Rock Auto has a good selection of OEM parts from economy to heavy duty.
  23. I had this problem on both my 2015 and 2017 2500 HD. Traded the 2015 before fixing but with the 2017 I replaced both the in bed and bumper receptacles. Both occurred around the 60k mark. Now I lightly seat the plug just far enough that the cover catches it and no problems. I found pushing it in more only made it worse. The both receptacles in the bed were aftermarket and completely sealed.
  24. Would you mind telling me the valve size. My trailer is .453 ( 7/16) and wondering if the sensors that you have are .625 valve and if so can they be swapped out. Trying to find out before I order a new truck with advanced trailering? Thanks D
