Anyone else having shipping issues? my '21 AT4 (standard bed, 6.2, cardinal red) was ordered 10/8, built 11/10, and now still sitting in mexico. Neither my dealer nor GM have any idea when it will ship. Talk about frustrating!

I'm encountering a similar issue albeit my truck isn't sitting in Mexico. 

I bought an "in transit" 2021 Trail Boss LT, built at the Mexico plant,  that has been sitting in a rail yard in Mesquite,tx for the last 4+ weeks.  

The dealer is unable to provide me with a date as to when this vehicle will actually arrive. This is an extremely frustrating situation. 

 

Just to add a little extra fuel to my current level of dissatisfaction with this whole mess, this same dealer just received a Mexican built Trail Boss a couple of days ago sporting a much later build vin number than mine. 

 

If anyone has any clues about this mess I would like to hear them. 

 

Hope your truck starts moving your way soon.

New guy here,

 

Ordered a 21 Sierra 1500 AT4 with standard bed, 6.2, and most of the goodies on 10/16, GMC chat tells me it's supposed to get built this week. Hopefully that means I'll have it mid-December. Can't wait!

Built the week of Thanksgiving in Mexico. Flew down and picked it up yesterday, was delivered to the dealership on 12/9. Nice 5 and a half hour drive home, the adaptive cruise works well for sure. I'm also very happy with the performance exhaust, sounds awesome to me, not too loud. ?

Getting the front side windows tinted tomorrow to match the rest.

I was updated yesterday. 
 

My truck is in and at the dealership! They did PDI and dealer installed items. Now it’s gone for protective film and ceramic coat. 
I’m pretty surprised with how quick it ended up being. 

Well, took deliver of my truck today! Was getting protective film and ceramic coating etc before I was able to make it to town to pick it up. 
 

Love the truck! 105km on it so far and can’t wait to get more. Good thing we have a winter storm coming tomorrow... 

 

Pretty quick overall. Good luck to those out there still waiting.

Let the waiting begin.  Ordered a RST last Tuesday.  Guestimated delivery is early March.

Local to the St. Louis area and also ordered a Silverado recently.  Placed my order on November 14.  Still at event code 1100 so I won't see it until February at the earliest.  What dealer did you order from?

long wait is to be expected as many assembly plants shut down for a few weeks or even month(s) around the holidays.

GM/UAW holiday calendar shows they were shut down 2 days at Thanksgiving and 6 days (24th and 27th through 31st) this month.  I'm guessing also 1 day at the beginning of January but I don't see the 2021 calendar yet.

Fort Wayne is on shutdown until Monday the 4th

Placed my order at the end of October. Ordered a SLT Premium Plus crew 6.2 with x31 and standard bed. Had constraints in early November even thou the dealer had the allocations to get what I wanted. Order got picked up before Thanksgiving. Built early December but was in quality control for awhile and now just waiting on it to be shipped up from Mexico. Dealer still doesn’t have a delivery time frame and thinks it may just show up. Dealer was told the AT4’s are held up because of supplier issues. Which can only be the suspension I would think.

    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.

    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.
