If I was going to talk with anyone, it would be your salesman/dealer.    Likely have an item on constraint in your build.

 

I had to drop the running boards (no big loss) from my build and it went right through.  And it showed up minus two LPO's (the black out package and the all weather floor mats).

Took delivery on 12/22/2020. Just under 90 days from order date. I think using an independent dealer may have slowed it down by a couple of weeks. 2021 AT4 Short-box with 3.0L Diesel and Carbon Pro edition. Waiting for availability of the Bakflip MX4 for Carbon Pro to finish it up.

Not sure if you ordered the tonneau cover yet, but it's finally available for the carbon pro.  I ordered mine from tonneau covers.com. 3 weeks to build supposedly.

Ordered this on Nov 18th from a trusted dealer and it was delivered Mar 1st.  From what I understand it has a lot to deal with a chip issue.  As well as options you choose with limited availability.  I as well ordered factory steps and they were later on back order.  Also not on the build site anymore.  

 

I'm a firm believer that if you are patient enough (definatly during covid) to wait a month or 4......order your truck.  You ABSOLUTLY save money.  

 

Get what you want.  You defiantly pay for it.

Ordered my AT4 1500 Crew Cab with Standard Bed on 01/20/2021, got a call on 02/11/2021 from my dealership and told me that they no longer are doing the AT4 Premium Package no longer exists as the running boards are so backordered and that I have the max tow package on my truck and they have stopped all production on that packages because GM cannot get their hands on the semiconductor that runs the anti-sway system on the truck.  My dealer told me that we can either keep it how it is and wait 6-9 months for the semiconductor or take off the running boards and the max tow package (Bringing the max tow from 9100lbs to 7100lbs).  I chose to remove the max towing package and change the Premium package to Value Package and now my truck is being built this week, 3/8/2021.  Hoping to see it soon!!

So I went to the dealer that I picked up my truck from last Monday.  Apparently there is a huge chip issue (I've heard other of you fine fellas I think say this too) Because of this, they are also cutting the finish date at the bowling green plant for the 21' corvettes.  My father in law just picked his up like a month ago and our dealer had 8 allocations.....now they have 2 because they are starting the 22's. in July which is early.  I gave him a build for a Tahoe for my wife.  3 people ahead of me and per allocations he assumes (in my opinion) it won't be here (WV) till may...July. This doesn't make sense to me because it doesn't solve the chip issue.  Don't look for any rebates from your dealer unless they REALLY like you because they don't need too.  Supply and demand unfortunately.  Why would they rebate something when they don't need too.  Hope this helped anyone who was wondering.

I really feel like GM and other manufacturers will start doing an online build to order and pay/finance through GM...FORD...DODGE etc.....cut out dealerships.  Which is unfortunate because as bad as dealerships can be sometimes there is a use for them and some people there care and want to put a face to a vehicle.

All automotive manufacturers are being affected by a shortage of semi-conductors on a global scale. GM was as proactive as they could've been. Other car companies were hit harder. This has been in the news for a few months now.

It is not based on a time frame...It's based on available allocation at your dealer

    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
    • I have 2 choices. 
    • Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
