I noticed that a dealer website had the title "2015 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD (pre-Sept 2014) Work Truck" for a 2500HD This implies a split year refresh/modification? And that trucks built starting in October are somehow different? (Not sure if the "pre-Sept 2014" is the build date or the expect arrival at the dealer and thus the change has already occurred in the production line).

 

Comments? Thanks!

There will be truck including Tahoes, Suburban's and the Silverado's under 2015i. Not sure what all the changes are yet, but I have seen the Z71 package will now be availabe on the Tahoe's and Suburban's and the New Towing mirrors are replacing the old (current) tow mirrors on the Silverado's.

My 2500HD on order with TPW of August 25 is 2015i, so production must be starting right around now.

Hmm, now if GM can get their suppliers in order ( pay them ), then there wouldn't be so many constraints on parts and more orders could be filled...

I tried placing an order on Sunday for a 2015 Silverado 2500HD and my dealer said he still didn't have pricing for the 2015i trucks so really couldn't give me an exact price. He just called about an hour ago and said GM released pricing but it will not be in their ordering system for 7-10 days. He is manually coming up with a price for me today, so should know actual pricing, but can't determine if constraints are met until next week. Man, I really want to get this on order!!

I know exactly how you feel! And I've only been waiting 19 days!! But my order is still not set for Production [emoji17]

I was able to order a 2015i Silverado 2500HD on Saturday but dealer still did not have pricing. The differences that were shown on the order sheet were the new camper mirrors, new 18" and 20" wheels (now chrome) and removal of Blue Granite and Blue Topaz colors. They added the Rainforest Green and Deep Ocean Blue Metallic. I would really like to see the blue, the 1"x1" color chip looked great, tough to order a truck in a color I haven't seen yet though. Still deciding between the Tungsten and Ruby Red.

I really hope the new wheels don't suck. I hate chrome...

I agree, very curious to see what they will look like.

No HD radio? That makes a (good) difference in the sound of FM in my '14...

      AFM Disabler Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because it’s in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal.

      Hot air constantly blowing through floor vents, drivers side only?

      By baglie1 · Posted

      Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?

      Gas Prices

      I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
