Issues getting pricing & ordering a 6.2 w/max trailering-Canada


Recommended Posts

Posted

I finally decided what truck I want and that I am going to order one. This past week I have been to 2 dealers here in ALBERTA, and neither one of them could give me pricing on the build that we did. The prices would not even show in their system. Can anyone help out as to what's going on ? Both dealers did not have an answer.

I am trying to order a Silverado LTZ with the 6'6 box, 6.2L engine, max trailer package. Are there issues the dealers up here are not aware of?

Western GMC in Edmonton has one sitting on the lot.... I know because I drove it. It has a window sticker lol. Granted its a Sierra so maybe they have the Silverados all screwed up somehow.

Apparently there are a couple around western canada but none that fit exactly what I want.

 

I'm really surprised that this build restraint has not been brought up.

Yeah the one they have is optioned not in a way I would buy. A loaded truck... but no options lol. The deal breaker to me us the 40 20 40 up front. What am I saying..... after driving it I confirmed I don't need one lol.

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
