So I ordered my 2020 2500 LT Gasser on 1/13/20.  As of today, there is still no Targeted Build Week.  I called the Dealer and spoke with the Salesman I have been dealing with.  Apparently they are not building any gas trucks right now.  Anyone have any idea why this might be?  I was told about two months from order to delivery.  Definitely doesn't look like that's gonna happen now.

Read through the post titled "Happy Birthday to me, ordered a 3500" and you will find enlightenment.

Do you have the order number from your dealer?

I do

So you can bypass the dealer and get your event code from GM.  Should just need the order number and dealer name and maybe your name (the customer named on the order). 

 

It may not have a tpw but at least you will know if it is moving along in the process, and not an order that is not accepted for whatever reason.    

 

 

I really don't get why sales-types feel the need to bullshit when they don't know or don't want to say.

^^ this.

Except I’ve always only needed my order number when requesting an update from the chat feature. They usually ask what the vehicle is, and sometimes they ask for my phone, email, and address. I usually just provide my phone and email.

Ditto, same boat.  Ordered on Jan 6th   2020 GMC Sierra 2500 CCSB  6.6 gas quicksilver metallic

event code has not moved from 1100.   I've been checking weekly on the GMC chat link     Spoke to my dealer yesterday.  It appears I might be in business shortly.  He was optimistic about getting an allocation this coming Tuesday.  We'll see.   Good thing I'm not in a hurry to get a new truck.  Ideally early Spring would be nice, but I am getting a little anxious.

I wonder what happens after March 5 for those who are still at code 1100.   March 5 is the due date for final orders for 2020 HD's.  First date to order 2021 HD is May 21 but production start date for those won't be until Aug 30.

Just curious where did you get this information from.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
