Ordered a new 2014 crew cab, my chevy order tracking says its still in production, how ever when i chatted with a rep, after 15 mins they were able to find it. and him/her said that production was complete and it was waiting to be shipped?!
i dont know what to believe .. the rep or chevy.com .

my sales man ( cool guy ) is on vacation he said he'd check on it as soon as he got back.

 

anyone go through this before ?

Hello,

 

I understand how anxious you must be to drive your new vehicle. I am assuming when you stated that you talked with a rep, you were referring to a GM representative. Using your order number or VIN they can check real time updates on the status of your vehicle. If you would like me to double check the information, private message me the order number or VIN.

 

Safe travels,

 

Jennifer T.,

Congrats!

 

What did you order? Trim, options etc

 

I will be placing an order when the 6.2 and 8 speed are avail. I hope you can get 6 passenger seating in SLT / 6.2. The brochure lists the 6.2 only avail in SLT trim and most SLT options end up removing the front split bench :-(

I seriously doubt you'll get an SLT truck with a front bench. That seat is useless anyhow. I just like the bench because the floor console always seems to make contact with my knee.

Yes the small seat sucks to sit in but it's nice to have an extra spot if needed (kid can fit in there no prob) i think the trucks look roomier with the bench anyway.

 

The bench is definitely avail in SLT, it has power controls both sides and heated for driver and pass. I just see a lot of options stating - when ordering 6.2 you must select this and that option.

If that middle spot is lap belt only still (I don't know that it is) there's no way I'd want to put a kid there. I'm with you on it seeming roomier. I'm planning on the next one being a regular cab anyhow- it seems the forward hinged doors for the ex. cab make the space less useful and the crew cab is still too small compared to Ford, not that I have any need for the crew anyhow.

I just hope that you won't be complaining about problems or characteristics a few months down the road of ownership. I think you should've test driven different configurations before proceeding with an order. But regardless, congrats!

blah im gona try and order one now hell with driving it first, its gonna drive way better than the gmt900s and I know i want a crew cab long bed ltz so why drive it?

 

The only concern I have with ordering it, is having problems with the early production run of these trucks.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      The not as clean as one would assume theme with the new engine oil, that reminds me of comments over the years with mechanics not always being so on board with filling an oil filter, not from the center anyway due to that typically being the clean side of the filter, danger of some contaminant falling into the filter if not careful but the realization now that the oil may not be as pure as one had assumed it would surely be. Yes it would be possible to fill from the small holes but that means messing with something to prop open the anti drain back valve if the filter is so equipped and not damage that valve in the process. Me, I have hardly ever prefilled an engine oil filter however I have prefilled diesel fuel filters with a filter on a fuel bulk tank and for anyone that has messed with diesel engines with filters and units that have a limited or no way of priming them, putting on a dry filter is a bad day to say the least with those crappy systems. But anyway back to not so clean engine oil, indeed perhaps its not so bad after all that I have not made a practice of prefilling oil filters.    As Grumpy Bear commented on keeping things clean, that I really have to wonder what the typical practice is at a dealer or any other shop that changes engine oil, do they make sure to wipe or wash off the oil plug and certainly if it fell into some gunk or onto a dirty floor, or that they wiped the filter mounting flange and didn't go and use some dirty rag and end up adding dirt to the inside of the head of the filter mount. Or be careless in how they stored or handled the new filter and if they were bumping into items under the vehicle with the filter opening facing up and having dirt drop right into the filter and if so right into the threaded center that is on the clean side. The top side, did they clean away the built up gunk that may be around the filler before removing the cap or to be really careful at that point that something right close to the filler hole that was hidden under the caps flange won't fall into the engine. Or did they clean the funnel or was that just laying there covered in oil from the oil change before and dust kicked up from sweeping the floor stuck to the oil and now that will go running into the next persons engine due to just not cleaning the funnel as "they won't know anyway" attitude as that young guy is more worried about taking a break so he can go outside and smoke a joint. Just random points that came to mind when I think about what some hired personnel may do that the shop foreman has no idea of or perhaps the whole attitude of some shops may be "eh ... who cares, they will never know the difference anyway".

      On the subject of OLM, Gm's OLM tool may be more "informed" than others brands. I recall OLM's in mid-2000's Chrysler products literally counting down a set number of miles. That's all the OLM appeared to be.    I would actually expect GM to be able to explain the parameters that their OLM takes into account from a high level. No, I would not expect them to disclose their software coding or data analysis around their parameters.   So we're talking about two different topics, so to continue the subject on the other one, I'd be curious to know how much "standard particulate matter" in fresh oil is able to be filtered at first start by a fresh oil filter. How much particulate matter is enough to "matter"?   I.e. how much of a "lever" do we think this equates to (variability in particulate content, in fresh oils, between different makes/brands, some which filter less, and some that filter more).   We can say that more particles = more wear = shorter engine life as a logical statement and use that data with a little marketing to scare people into selecting a more refined/filtered oil. Using a similie, is this like deciding to forego two alcoholic drinks in a lifetime because we're worried about the potential impact on lifespan? Are there numbers which translate the ISO test results into a quantifiable increase in wear for a given engine/use case?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually recalibrate the speedometer it just changes the wheel speed sensor inputs to the computer. The truck still thinks it has stock tires.

      I apologize, I missed this post, at risk of going off CURRENT TOPIC.   I'm not saying it is BS, I'm questioning how much information is being held back. GM is NOT going to spell out exactly every parameter in the algorithm. Liability, intellectual property, etc.    I'm not naive enough to believe that it is as simple as revolutions, coolant temperature, miles, time; are you?    I don't do irrational either, and boiling the OLM down to four simple values that I could code in an afternoon (I'm not a coder) is irrational - unless it suits your agenda to ignore it.
