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!

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 ordered mine on June 14th. They replaced an existing order that wasn't built with mine. It is in transit and is supposed to be there today.

I assume you are all talking about crew cabs correct? My understanding is double cabs are another story, they are just starting to build them.

Yes I'm referring to crew cabs...

I've looked over and over trying to find the chat icon but I don't see it. Am I missing something?

    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page 
    • Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.       
    • We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper. 
    • Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money". 
    • I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
