Well folks, I did it. After all the failed attempts at the Chevy dealer I traded it in for a 2015 Ram 1500 Larame. I have to agree with the other folks on here that have done the same thing, it was th

Apparently you and the other customer reps don't care. If you or GM would care y'all would put more effort in the matter. Just coming on the forum and stating the same repetitive posts and being a 3

Well I have some good news and bad news about my truck vibrations. Good news is that my truck has a significantly less vibration at speed. The bad news is my truck has significantly less vibration. Fo

These trucks drop in value real quick. My MSRP was $51665 and the current KBB with 4900 miles is from $39000 - $41000.

But lets be real.. Nobody pays close to MSRP. I paid $10k under MSRP.. KBB is more than what I purchased mine for.

I don't trust KBB anymore as there estimates for selling to a Private party are always too close to the what the dealer trader in will be. When I sell a car on AutoTrader, I will see how much the same vehicle is advertised as used from dealers. People are willing to pay that price as they know real value of the car. KBB used to be more reliable, in my opinion, the car companies and KBB are working together. I just did KBB on my 2014 Sierra Denali with 2,000 miles on it, the estimate was $42K. give me a break. That reminds me, I need to get GM to buy this truck sooner than later.

Anyone tried Black Book? That's supposed to be the newest thing that's more reliable than Kelly Blue Book. I don't know too much about it as I just recently found out about it.

I tried to use black book the other day but it wanted me to pay for a subscription to use it

 

nada has sucked for a long time and kbb wasn't much better but had higher values for things so that's why most people used it as a reference.

 

I used a dealers "value your trade in" on my truck but they didn't have a 2014 option so I used the 2013 and the msrp price for my truck was $30,770 and they said a 2013 model with 1200 miles was valued at $18,000 if I traded it in. now that's a 2013 price but I bet the 2014 wouldn't fetch more then maybe $1,000 more then that.

 

if anyone has or knows of a link to use an accurate "free" car valuation calculator please share since im pretty sure im going to seriously be looking at used trucks if I can get my buy back so I want to know the fair values on them.

What about TrueCar.com?

they only give prices on new vehicles so you get the best deal.

 

if you select find used cars, they just send you to a list of cars for sale but there is no option to get correct values for those

I filed with BBB becouse GM and my GMC dealer keep giving me the run around. We will see what happens from here. Next move will be lemon law lawyer. 1 month old and 1300 miles now. GM and Dealer do not care what you say,they say it will take time to figure this out and hope you go away. But guess what, Nope!!!!

So I went to the dealer last week to see what kind of deal they would work for me. Manager of after sales said pay the difference in MSRP for a 2500 duramax minus $1000 customer satisfaction money.. I said give me an extended warranty and/or 0 percent and I will sign the papers... Apparently they didnt think my vibration problems along with the other problems ive had totaling 35 days in the shop were serious and they said no so I filed with the BBB. Today someone from GM calls after the BBB complaint and offers me a WORSE deal.. difference between 105% of msrp for my truck MINUS milage which works out to be almost the MSRP for my truck. So now they want me to pay the difference and arent giving me the 1000.00. What incentive do I have to NOT file a lemon law suit. Cant believe it.

I dont think it matters, its up to the district manager of after sales for that dealership.. my dealership called me after they found out I filed the BBB complaint and said the DM said the deal is off the table since thier is a complaint at the BBB..So now I am dealing with someone from GM resolution dispute office and thats what they offered me

Gm has big problems....!

Can you imagine how many others out there who have this problem but haven't joined a forum, and think their truck is the only one with issues.

With the new lower tow ratings and radio, seat, rust, tranny shift issues, and vibrations this truck has been a complete failure to date, good looking truck but troubles that may lead into failures.

The part I can't figure out is GM must know the problem by now, and what or why is stopping them from implementing a fix.

Could it be the truck would be too costlyto fix now.

I now have a dodge ecodiesel, and it has been a great truck mechanically so far this 8 speed shifts so smooth, comfy seat no movement, radio keeps a signal with no loss, no vibrations, with certified tow numbers, and 420lb

of torque while sipping fuel.

I like the look of the Sierra better, but this Ram has my blessing after GM bought my truck back.

Guess what tires are on the Ram... Goodyear SRA wranglers 20" no vibrations at 39 psi recommended.

 

Boys and girls don't wait for this mess to sort it self out or you will loose your buy back (mileage), history will prove the fix will come, but not for us that bought early.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Sad thing is that this doesn't have to be the case. LSPI can be solved without a reduction in TBN. Swap Ca for Mg.  Cats are not a issue if the OEM can get a ring and valve guide seal even at SN levels of SAPS. Dizzy is purring like a kitten with a bowl of warm milk. 200K of Full SAPS oil and zero detonation issues and nice a clean inside and out. This shouldn't be an issue. It isn't 1920.    Tell ya what AMSOIL SS is excellent at, internal cleanliness. The new formula is even a step up from their already outstanding cleanliness levels. Can't say the OEM offering is quite that clean. There marketing suggest the SS is cleaner.     That is the only defense with at shelf oil. Nothing wrong with them if you ignore the marketing and OEM 'recommended' OCI and use a thimble full of common sense. 😉 You go sir.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By StingerZ16 · Posted

      I started with a folding cover by BAK PAC on my 2500. It went bad after close to 5 years. Bent and vinyl coming loose. Contacted BAK and they gave me a very good discount on a Revolver. Had it a number of years. Mostly outdoor storage. Some garage storage. Vinyl started to come loose. Still under warranty so they replaced to cover. Sold the 2500, bought the 1500 and got another revolver for it. Had it a couple years now and no issues. I store it indoors. Got a bit of discount when buying it as well. If you are seeing problems, contact BAK or real truck and let them know. Customer service was pretty good. But I think they changed their warranty.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its possible you never had the joy of the crappy boat launches we tend to have around here or really some of them are just grades down to the river if its a river scenario and the conditions change all the time with the river levels and silt deposits. Some of the lakes we went to years ago, there was no such thing as a cement pad that went down into the water that the trailer stayed on, it was gravel maybe up to the water line and then duck crap much beyond that so sinking the boat tires into mud. Of course some of the more established lakes had a cement bar type boat ramp but sometimes it was covered in green slime closer and certainly within the water and a two wheel drive had all sorts of fun if one had to touch that slime with the rear tires.    A neighbor of mine had made a comment years back with his chev truck that was probably about the same year as yours but a half ton extended cab 4x4 and he a a fiberglass boat with an inboard so it wasn't a feather weight and he had gone out to one of the large popular lakes in the area and don't ask me how this happened but he was in two wheel drive as he figured he didn't require four wheel drive for that boat ramp and somehow upon pulling the boat out he twisted one of his drive axles. I suspect it must have spun and then grabbed on the cement ramp and shocked it to the degree of twisting it. He would have had the standard 8.5 or whatever it was axle housing as the 9.5 ring gear like my truck has also has larger drive axles as far as I know. Anyway he was feeling a vibration driving home and had it checked out and a shop found that the tire/hub was wobbling because of the axle had twisted so in went a new drive axle. After that bad experience he said he made sure to put it into four wheel drive to lower the stress on the rear axle. Of course that is where an HD truck can handle a lot more stress and no doubt these newer half tons with their larger ring gears probably have larger drive axles as well to match vs back in the day.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Desirable - as in does someone WANT one, aspire to have one. Could reasonably buy any car they want and CHOOSE these instead.    I didn't watch the video, why did they win?
