Any idea when the LT Trailboss will be available? I was going to make trip to the dealership next week about ordering one, Also first time I ever heard talk of a dealership wanting a down payment on a vehicle order.  usually its none  

We have two GMC dealers around here one requires a deposit the other doesn't.

I ordered an LTZ this morning. Did not need a deposit. It was also the only Northsky Blue the dealer had allocated to them, or at least I was told. This particular dealer had 60+ allocations.

Ordered a 2019 Sierra Denali today. Dealer said order was accepted by GM. No pricing. Red with black interior. 6.2. Ultimate package, which pretty much takes care of everything. Disappointed in the interior color choices however. Wanted the tan like I have on my 17. Oh well...it will grow on me I guess.

Ordered my LT Trail Boss today. Found it odd that the Trail Boss only comes with 3.23 rear axle 8 speed tranny. Dealer said it matches the same output as the 6 speed 3.42 but will also be better in MPG.

As far as first gear goes, the 8 speed is almost an exact match for the 6 speed and 3.73 gears.  

 

But if you ever wanted 33-35" LT tires, the 3.23s won't be great.

We just got our order number

   Order # WDPP57

I heard you can track them on GMAuthority's site but I don't know how reliable it is.

Has anyone heard an MSRP on a trail boss yet? 

 

X2, The trail boss looks sweet. Does it have a factory leveling kit?

When do the build and price pages start going online?

Should be the 18th ot this month I believe. That's when they are allowing the building for ththe sle and at4. I'm pretty sure pricing is out ththiththis month.

I broke down and bought an 18 denali ultimate. It gives me most of the features I like about the new ones. I would like hud and 360 view. But the fact the engines changed imo for the worse with the unproven dynamic fuel management. I figure the 18 denali is already amazing. I'll wait for the new model refresh in 2 to 3 years and see what I think. I mean the truck was fresh off the trailer for 50k.

    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
