Yeah, shouldn’t take that long.  Tr3kker had much better luck. 

Sorry for the pic quality.   Will have better photos later.

Placed an order thru my local dealer on 12/3/19. It was accepted by GM and Production Control on 12/10/19. On 1/7/20 the order was at 3000 status but no TPW. On 1/22/20 my dealer got an email from DBC Order-Fulfillment stating that per Level 2(whoever that is) said there was an error on the order and in order for the order to push thru option code PQB--Safety Package must be added. The build was a Double Cab LTZ 4WD 6.2 with LTZ Conv. pack 1 and LTZ Conv pack 2, polished 20" wheels. That's it. Nothing special. I really don't want the Safety Package. I don't need a computer to tell me what's going on around me. I have eyes and ears and mirrors. When i drive i focus on driving not much else. Anyway anyone else come across this? The only why we could get an order to go thru without Safety package is without any LTZ Conv. packages. Very strange

6.2TB Nice looking truck. I almost went with that color. If you can put up more pictures. 

 

spdfrk31. When I ordered mine I put the safety package in. Did they put that package in for you?

So, I just found out that my truck is built and I have my VIN. They don't have a delivery date as it is waiting on transit. They said to reach back out in 2 weeks for an update.

Yes, same thing happened to me.  I ordered the same truck and options on 12/31/19.  Got a call on 01/17/20 from the dealer.  My order was rejected because the safety pkg was not ordered.  It's a pisser!

 

The Silverado build-and-price form has been updated so future buyers will only order correctly...

Finally tracked my TB down and took delivery today.  All is well and the ride home was great.  Been looking forward to that for too long!

It has the 6.2L, got 23.5 mpg on first 130 mile road trip at 55mph, looking like 17 mpg around town.

Order placed on 10/28/19 for a fully loaded Duramax AT4 HD

Order received  on 12/19/19 with a TPW of 1/20/20

Will be calling my dealer on Monday to see what the status of the truck is.

So according to my dealer my truck is scheduled to be built this week.  It'll be my first truck ever and I'm excited, especially since I ordered it back in November.

Ordered a CC short box 4wd LTZ 6.2 max tow Jan 13th TPW is next week. Love my 17 6.2 max tow and the 14 I had before the current one. Hope the 2020 is just as good.

They are still that far behind?

Apparently there was a shortage of the carbon beds causing the delay, at least that's what the dealer is saying.  Guess I should have mentioned I went with that.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.    
    • I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
