My biggest fear is they wont ship until post strike. If this delays my truck for more than a week or two I may just go buy a Dodge. 

 

Whoa! Slow down there. I realize you're anxious to get the new ride, but waiting a week, or even a few weeks is no reason to go making a silly decision like that which you will regret for a long time thereafter. :)

It was a close pick between the chevy and dodge. I don't need much persuasion to change my mind and not regret it.

My new truck is stuck in a rail car 7 miles from my dealer at an old GM plant and they have no clue when it will come off. Wish I could bring the bill of sale and pick it up myself

Hello Everybody!  First post on the forum, just placed an order for a 6.2L LT Trail Boss.  The engine is still on constraint, and who knows what will happen with the strike.  The dealer entered it as a "sold" order and will know Tuesday if the order is accepted by GM.  At least they were able to enter the preliminary order, so that is some progress (have been anxiously waiting since the May 25th announcement of the 6.2L option in the Trail Boss and RST trims)!

 

I will keep you posted on updates, I know from lurking here for months that several are interested in ordering the 6.2 Trail Boss.

I've been waiting for this as well... but planned on pulling the trigger end of year or Spring.  Now I see the GMC AT4 and it's really got my interest. Keep us posted on your order.

I actually received my first update today.   Scheduled to build week of 12/30, so I am guessing early February delivery.  Later than I hoped, but have been waiting so long...what’s another few weeks? ??

That's an interesting TPW between the holidays but great you've made it that far.  Been there done that on the wait before but it's all fun and anticipation.  This will be one of the 1st 6.2L Trail Boss trucks.  Enjoy it!

 

I test drove a 6.2L GMC today for the 1st time and was blow away with the acceleration compared to my current 5.3. I was already sold but there's no doubt now.  Also, the 10 speed is finally going in across the board which is huge as well. 

 

Hopefully I'm not too far behind you with the Trail Boss or an AT4 sometime before then since they already had 6.2 + 10 speed.

Hello everyone. Ordered on 12/12/19 and got TPW of 1/27/20 on 12/19/19..super excited.

 

First ordered truck. Coming from a 2002 f350 powerstroke extended cab for my truck. Also have a 2018 Camaro. 

 

LTZ 2020 crew cab short bed

3.0 diesel

Z71 4x4 

satin steel

20” wheels

ltz premium package

technology package

tow mirrors

trailer tpms sensors

splash guards

black bow tie

 

 

Trying to determine if the trailboss lift can be installed on it... they are not showing on on the accessory pages anymore it seems for any configuration. And if it will fit in my garage with the lift @ door height of 81”. Might need to just add it later.

Sorry to hear that. Hope it moves up for you! The wait is a sure killer. What’s your spec? I heard from the dealer that they can place a stock order or a sold order and that impacts timelines potentially.

The order was placed as a sold order. 

The spec is 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 with the 3.0 Diesel. Tow mirrors, Off road assist steps, splash guards, basically fully loaded.

Wondering if its because i'm in Canada?

Also wondering if they build certain vehicles during certain weeks. Like one week is allocated to silverados the next week sierras or is it all just random? Can't see why you'd have a sooner build week with a later order!

I ordered my 1500 denali with carbon pro in mid november and still don't have an order number.  SA saying that truck production is delayed until February due to the carbon bed delays.  Anyone know of there's truth to that?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By richard wysong · Posted

      I had an 88 K1500 with a 5.7 that had those symptoms, I know totally different, it ended up being the ECM. Once you get the fuel system fixed if it still runs lousy you may want to investigate that. it didn't set any codes, stalled ,ran rough at times etc

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
