Well..... my denali order was finally accepted today on allocation (3 months after first ordering), but they had to take off the Technology Package and tow mirrors.   Driver Alert 1 & 2 were fine, but cannot do the Technology Package due to constraints.

I understand shortages and everything but this is insane. Dealerships still get a few trucks randomly that are not sold yet, seems that all of us who have ordered or put deposits down should receive our trucks before random trucks are being dropped off. Also the lack of communication on the status is extremely frustrating.

Reading all of these recent posts and the news that the 2022 isn't going to be the refresh year makes me glad I pulled the trigger on an AT4 1500 recently. 6 weeks in and I'm about to pick it up after convincing myself I needed a truck now, not later. The chip shortage and order priorities has been weird and upside down, my original order from March still hasn't been accepted so I will get my deposit back. Had to sacrifice the subwoofer from the Premium package, but I can deal with that being the only piece. Good luck to everyone.

 That would make the most sense to me. I've had a truck on order with a local dealer since January that hasn't been allocated yet. I finally gave up and found a built one that checked all but three small boxes, and the dealer installed that stuff anyway. Had to go way out of state, but it worked out. I got super lucky, one of the dealership's sales guy accidentally ordered this one and wasn't supposed to be able to do orders. Ended up buying it before it hit the lot so the dude didn't get in trouble,

Can you please point me to the post where the 2022 is not going to be a refresh year?  I am trying to decide between a truck they have coming to the dealership already vs waiting to order one built the exact way I want.

I wasn't 100% correct, 2022 will still be refreshed, but it will be in the later half of the 2022 year. I can't wait that long and really needed a truck months ago, so that's forever away for me :(

I am new here....  i should be picking up new truck tomorrow.

 

As for ordering... it was not the one i ordered.

 

Order place April 29,2021.   As of June 30, the order never went to accepted by GM.    Could I wait... maybe.  According to the sales guy and manager, my order will be pushed to a 2022 model once they get to it... AND the trim and option combination i want wont be available.   

 

This tells me my order wont be honored as it is.   We originally went with an LTZ model with technology package.  The 2022 orders are limiting the technology package to Denali and High Country models.

 

 

Based on that, we went ahead and signed a deal on the only in stock diesel ... which was the right color , Denali and with the 3L diesel.

 

So, hoping that all papers are done today and we go get it tomorrow.

My denali will have everything on it.  Would've been happy to go with out the AFM/DFM chip but whatever.  Getting all my tech packages as well.   This is a first for the industry and they just didn't have the ability to keep up or handle it like they had hoped.  I'm so sick of GM saying your dealer has all the answers.  It's the biggest joke ever.  GM flat out will not tell you much.  About the only way you will find anything out is IF you get the GM Rep at your dealership involved and then MAYBE you will get something moving.  They have so many vehicles just sitting waiting to be shipped.  I do not think it was done in a orderly fashion at all.  It's a total joke and it's on the plants, not the dealers.

 Thank you sir and that is most recent news!  What kind of truck are you looking for?

You are welcome. I am getting an AT4 1500 with the 3.0. It has almost all of the package options I want. The only things I am not getting are the subwoofer in the Premium package and the rails. Those are things I can add later, so I am not too bothered. Oh, and this one has the upgraded 20" rims, which does actually bother me since more rubber and smaller rims is always better in my experience, but I won't cry about it in the current market conditions.

Well good news today I stumbled on a truck with the options I was looking for plus a couple at a dealership in another state. Called them up, gave them a deposit and Wednesday I get to go pick up a 2021 Sierra AT4 6.2 carbon pro!  I used the inventory search on GMC.com to find exactly what I was looking for.

I just bought a 2021 Half ton 3.0L from a dealership a couple weeks ago. It had all the dealbreaker options I needed and they said the event code was “4300 immediate delivery”. I asked Linton to give me an update a couple days ago and it Is now 4D00 which I must assume means it’s waiting on a chip somewhere. 
 

How long have trucks typically been sitting at 4D00 lately?  Are we talking weeks or months.  I appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

I've been 4D00 since May 12th ( and that is short compared to some).

GM Chat just told me that is changed from D400 to 4300 on Jun 25th.  Hopefully that means its close.

They told me the same thing, but my dealer says that not really the case. I'd say its 50/50. GM Chat told me three weeks ago it was being loaded on a train. I don't even know that the code/chat can tell us anything anymore until it shows up on a train or at the dealer. Fingers-crossed we driving these things soon.

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
