Adaptive Cruise & Wireless CarPlay on the 2020's?

Have been conversing with a sales person about a potential order for a 2020 3500HD SLT SRW 4x4 with the SLT Premium and Technology packages.  While I've gone through a build a few times on the GMC site, I never saw a feature for Adaptive Cruise Control.  That is, cruise control that adapts to the speed of the vehicle ahead with adjustable following distance and collision avoidance.  

 

I asked him if this feature was available and he said, "we can definitely order one with adaptive cruise control".  While that was pretty clear, my gut feeling (which is almost always right) had me thinking he may not know if it's available or not and might just be trying to make a sale.  Can someone tell me if it's available or when it will be?

 

Also, I heard wireless Apple CarPlay is coming in the 2021 models.  Is that so?  

 

I'm all for reading this stuff my self, so you have published sources where I can read this info myself, please share.  

 

Many Thanks.

Thanks for the response.  Do you know if it is coming at some point (2021 or later) or is it unknown at this point?  We have this in our new Subaru and love it, so it's almost worth waiting for in the GMC HD

No, I bought a 2020 Sierra HD in December and I thought it had adaptive cruise control.  I was at the dealer all day and it was a two-hour drive home at night after I bought it and I could find the following distance setting in the display, but I never could figure out how to set the adaptive cruise control.  I couldn't figure it out because it didn't have it.  I'd bet GM could program the computer to enable it, but for whatever reason, I doubt they'd do it.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
