Recommended Posts

I'm really wanting to see one in person, any idea when they will start getting to the dealers??  My 2002 1500hd with the 6.0 has been great, but at 230k miles, I'm getting a little nervous that she's gonna get tired of pulling the camper and die on the road :)

I've read that they should be arriving at the dealer's this week. I'm sure they'll move them quick but I'm more curious about build time and what that looks like right now. Probably won't know for a few months until those orders start being delivered

I am checking the status of mine everyday ~ built on 3 June, just released to carrier a few day ago. I will post photos and let all know when I take delivery ~ to help gauge your order timelines.

New to this forum but not GM's.  I have a 17 Ford F350 dually right now which replaced a GMC Duramax dually.  I like the Ford but I liked my GM's better so have been closely following the info on the new 2020 HD's.  My need for a big truck is to pull our fifth wheel.  The only reason I pull it with a dually is because I could not find a well equipped diesel one ton (Denali or King Ranch) in a single rear wheel with enough payload capacity for the hitch weight of my fifth wheel plus my wife and I, our hitch, a 25 gallon transfer tank and one fat Boston Terrier.  I am well within the specs for an srw in all areas except the payload.  I would love to go back to a single rear wheel as most of the time the truck is my daily driver and I really don't like driving a dually.  I saw that GM had increased the GVWR from 11,500 to 12,100 or 12,250, not sure which, for the srw 3500's.  Thus my interest.

 

Now to relate to this post.  I went to a large GMC dealer today to get more information.  The salesman did not have a clue what I was asking and directed me to his in stock 2019's and said he would get me the numbers on those trucks.  I said no, I want to know if you have a 2020 coming in the next few weeks that I could see.  He went to his sales manger who said they have nothing on the new trucks and could not order any until August.  I didn't argue and just left.

I saw two GMC HDs on a closed transport in Vail Colorado today. I pulled over and was about to snap a pic and the guy shut the doors. I asked what they were for and he just said sorry. Looked like they just finished up some kind of GMC event. One was a Denali and the other was an AT4. Ive been planning on a Silverado all along but that AT4 looks amazing in person.

I bet those were the ones that TFL Truck gave a sneak peak at on their youtube channel the other day.  They mentioned when you should see them at the dealers in the video.  Don't remember.

He said August/September at the end of the video.

Just looked on Autotrader Mtn. View Chevrolet in Chattanooga, TN has a White 2500 LT Z71.

So they are on the ground so to speak. Biggest thing I wasn't to crazy about was the wheels on the truck.

I drove by the Flint GM plant last weekend and there hundreds if not thousands of them on the lot. I saw them driving on the highway so was not able to snap a picture but I couldn’t believe how many there were. Excited to see one close up even though I just bought a 2019 F250

 

Here a some pics from google maps, thought it was pretty cool:

    • I am sure that was quite the pass experience and not a great place to experience during the winter when the conditions are not good. I've seen video of that pass and also more detailed information and pictures about the wrecks at that one hair pin turn where tractor trailers have flown right off the cliff and I am sure from all the warning signs that you know the exact curve that was !. After all there is a reason why a song was made about Wolf Creek Pass !. By the way and I didn't realize this either when I bought my truck as its nothing I even thought of that would be programmed into the cruise control and this occurs in either the basic or the more advanced cruise that controls your distance behind a vehicle and that is the brakes going down a hill are being applied as soon as the vehicle goes a certain speed over the set cruise speed. While it certainly does force downshifts in the transmission as you found out with cruise on while going down hill, its also dragging the brakes as needed to keep the speed controlled to what the cruise was set to. For me, I find that unsettling simply because I have no concept then as to how MUCH brake input is being used a and just how hot are those brakes getting and the wear factor as well. I can see that system getting a person into trouble on long mountain grades while pulling a trailer as it would not only be standing on the brakes of the pickup without any driver input, it would also be automatically applying the trailer brakes and it could cause a run away unit by overheating the brakes. Its one thing on a shorter hill and if the driver allows it to do its thing but on a long mountain grade is where things could get so out of hand. As someone a while back on this forum said, they had someone following them at night I believe on a down grade and had the cruise set and the person behind them could see the brake lights being energized all the way down the hill. I figured when I saw your comment that you didn't know and would have no way of knowing that your truck was applying the brakes and that you would and rightfully so assume you only used the brakes when you pressed on the pedal to slow down more than the cruise set speed for the slower sharp curves. So its good knowledge to know this about the newer GM trucks, certainly when doing any descending on long mountain grades. In the future try kicking off the cruise and use the the manual mode on a pass to see what that is like as I know myself when I first experienced it I thought no way can this engine be holding me back this well and tried the same hill in manual mode and sure enough the engine was revving way up and still could not hold the trucks speed down like it could in cruise mode.    Fuel mileage, that is where a really low sleek type of car can do better at higher speeds, certainly it starts sucking fuel too but a tall pickup is pushing massive amounts of air and also allowing a lot more air under it and the tow mirrors as in elephant ears pushing through the wind  as well. Driving like grandpa is about as good as one can do when driving one of these if trying to get the best fuel economy they can. I bet these trucks would get the best mileage they can if driven on a freeway in Florida if not busy traffic at a sedate speed and that sea level elevation without hills, vastly different then Colorado !.
