Order times?

BringTheRain403 · July 22, 2013

For those of you who ordered after production started how long did it take for you to get your vehicle? I'm about to order mine and I was wondering if the 6 week time frame the dealer gave me was accurate...

Thanks!

I was told 6 to 8 weeks. Getting ready to order mine soon also.

Plan on 8 weeks min. It may get built in 4-6 weeks but they have no control over the distribution/shipping process and that may take several weeks depending on what part of the country it has to travel to. CC's are coming from Silao Mexico and thats down close to Mexico City so it has to travel almost a 1,000 miles to reach the border.

Someone posted this somewhere I cannot recall:

DOSP - Dealer Order Submission Process

The weekly process consists of 4 stages.

1. Constraints Distribution - Dealers are informed on constraints to review before placing orders. (A Constraint is a limit placed on an specific build configurations.)

2. Dealer Order Submission - Dealers can order on Thursday, Friday or no later than midnight on Saturday. (You can submit orders earlier but you don't know the constraints.

3. The 4-Pass Process - GM will attempt to place each dealers orders on Mondays using a 4-Pass process. (At this point a dealer may get more or less than was allocated if they asked.)

4. Dealer Review-You can review your placed orders for changes or replacements until Tuesday at 9pm ET. That's when the orders are sent to production control.

For those yet to order, GMC (corporate, not the dealer) will search the entire U. S. for a truck with any specifics you give them. Go to GMC's website and click the Chat icon. Tell the rep exactly what you want and they'll tell you where's the closest match. Might be quicker than waiting the 8 weeks.

Yes and many dealers will be willing to swap in a optioned part from another truck if it means a sell and its easy.

And they will ship it to my dealer? Because I already found one but it's too far for my dealer to get...

Depends on your dealer.. some will do a swap while others might charge you to have the truck shipped.

Locate your truck, then talk to your dealer, and decide if you'd rather possibly pay a little extra or just wait two months for order.

I ordered mine on July 4th and was told it would take about 6-8 weeks. They dealer sent me an email this past weekend with progress. My truck was accepted and is now in production.

No ETA oncompletion or delivery date.

I am waiting for the 6.2L option any one hear anything from the dealerships I know about the fall I was just wondering if that would mean Aug in ordering and Sept delivered?

Was told 12 weeks (in Canada). That's also how long it was taking the dealer to receive their own orders. 12 weeks is OK with me - last 2 vehicles I factory ordered took16 and 17 weeks.
