Ordered 2014 GMC Denali 1500 6.2L CCSB Quicksilver Metallic


Recommended Posts

Posted

I just ordered a 2014 GMC Denali 1500 6.2L CCSB Quicksilver Metallic. This will be my second time ordering a truck, but my first new purchase. The first truck I ordered I backed out of due to shady observations that I witnessed at the dealership. The reason I could not wait for a 2015 is due to the fact that, first I just want the truck now. Secondly, I ordered parts for a 2014 just waiting around in warehouses. By the time the truck comes in, I'd expect to see the 2015s. I was told by GMC that they will start ordering 2015 around the forth quarter of 2014. So I should be getting better incentives when my truck comes in, which could be a win for me.

Sorry to hear about your first order. The new truck sounds even better though! As they say, good things come to those who wait.

I thought the bank was closed for 2014 orders. The huge improvements for the 2015's must be pushing production back, keeping the old 2014's around longer.

2014 orders end next month I believe.

Great color choice.

Sounds like a nice truck. Wish I could find one like that around me to test drive. Not that it matters, my next purchase is a going to be a 4 seat sports car anyway.

Too bad you live far away, I may be selling my 2010 M3. It's a 4-door making 620HP at the crank.

Picked up my 6.2 quicksilver Denali today, ordered 4-8, made 4-28. Arrived at dealer 5-21.

Update: Another salesman didn't do their research. My truck could not be ordered because he waited until after the deadline to order the truck. I've changed my mind about the 1500 and just bought a 2015 Denali 2500 6.6 duramax.

It is awesome that you had gotten yours so fast. Ordered mine on 21 Jan and picked it up 28 May. I almost told the dealership that I wanted to go with the Duramax instead. I waited it out and it was well worth the wait.

My truck hasn't come in yet. It should be here before the end of July. I didn't order this truck, it was a dealer order, fully loaded 2500 Denali.

So I am pretty pissed. I just realized they brought back Quicksilver for the Sierra Denali 1500 at the end of the 2017 model year. 2018 order bank opens in June. I tried to order one in Sept 2016 and was told by 2 dealers it could not be ordered. The color was even removed from the GMC configurator when you selected Denali trim. So I took a black one off the lot since I needed a truck. I hate GM's black (non-metallic) paint because it scratches if you look at it sideways.

 

So anyone have any idea when they brought this paint option back? WTF gives doing this right at end of a MY?

 

Sincerely pissed at GMC.

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
