The dealer didn't ask for a deposit. I offered it. As an aside, years ago I ordered an olds toronado with a deposit. Once it came in someone offered them over list price and they sold it out from under me. Gladly returning my deposit so the deposit isn't a guarantee either.

Every vehicle (except my 19) I put a “goodwill” deposit down. Usually $500. Not a big deal fully refundable. With my 19 didn’t need anything I even offered, probably because a year prior I bought a Camaro from them.

It depends on the dealership.  We purchased our last 5 vehicles from the dealership I got my 2019 and they still wanted a deposit.

I'm not questioning/ doubting you, rather asking out of my own ignorance, but if you don't give them a deposit, is there a risk of them selling your truck to someone else once it's built and delivered? 

When you fill out the build sheet, you sign it as well as the salesperson signing it. The nice thing is, if you don’t like it when you see it, you can tell them you don’t want it with no consequences. To answer your question, no, you have priority over anybody else. I would find the highest selling/best rated dealership in your area and use them. Hope this helps.

Just received word that my ordered RST is just days away from arriving at the dealership. Given that quarterly sales will be revealed at the end of the month, would it behoove me to wait to July to get better incentives? My dealer cuerently offers $1500 of their flex and bonus cash, plus gm allowances of 4700. Hoping incentives will be even better

Its a crap shoot, ask them if they will back date paperwork if the deal is worse in July. Dealers  will play that game on the day the next's months deals are out and give the better deal.

Just got word that I've been upped to a 2020. I had the premium package, technology package and max trailering on an LTZ crew. Would the newly available adaptive cruise and trailering view? be part of these or ordered seperately?  I'm curious to know if possible before I go to the dealer to review the new order.

I can’t answer your question but happy for you getting into a 2020. I know you were leaning towards it. Good luck at the dealership.

Placed my order on 4/16. Order was accepted on 4/26. Got the call from the dealership last Saturday 6/29 that my 19 LT Trailboss Arrived. Was undecided on taking the 2019 or waiting for a 2020, but they offered me a great lease deal on the 2019 so I pulled the trigger. Had the dealer install Assist Steps and a Hard Rolling Tonneau Cover, so I should be picking it up in the afternoon tomorrow.

Shipping from Mexico. Got on the gmc.com chat and found out my truck is at eagle pass coming out of Mexico. Disappointed not Ft Wayne plant since that is only 300 miles from me. Anyway anyone know the process and timing on a Mexico truck ? Again wished it was Ft Wayne

WOW! I thought the crew cabs were only being built in Fort Wayne. As far as shipping, everything I have seen is not very routine. Hopefully it arrives soon.

Ordered LT TB standard bed on 5/1. Been stuck in Milpitas, CA rail yard for the last week and some with no ETA.

Frustrating it's only ~15 miles from my house and I can't just go pick it up there :/

 

Also when I ordered I thought all standard beds were made in US (noticed all the ones online had 1 VINs) but mine is from Mexico...

And I thought I had a long wait... just got mine today (ordered 5/1) but it’s well worth the wait!

 

Make sure you check the paint before taking delivery - my hood got damaged during delivery and didn’t find out until I got home. I will have my Detailer fix it, not trusting the dealer to do a proper job.

      Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65

      Factory front brake rotors...defect?

      By Chris80s · Posted

      On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!

      2026 Z71 Forward and Rear Park Assist help

      By Slow · Posted

      2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.
