This assessment is just as likely as going the other way, especially if there are any more supply/production interruptions.  It is a crap shoot right now.  I'd say if you want a truck and find one for a decent price I'd buy it and not look back.

Yeah I think I am going to lock in one of the trucks my dealer has arriving in August. Rebates actually went up a bit for June from what they were in May and I am hoping GM continues that trend. I don’t think I’ll regret waiting as I believe the incentives will get better as these dealers start to build up inventory levels. Curious what they do for July here in a few day’s.

I'm a little nervous how incentives will change, my truck was built this week. I like the current incentives plus the extra Costco offer, would set me up pretty sweet. Gotta wait I am guessing three-ish weeks for the dealer to get the truck in.

back in March, April a lot of peeps thought they would be giving way vehicles right about now but turns out it went the other way.....they cant sell what they don't have and sure as heck aren't gonna be trying to discount the last remaining ones heck of a lot.....

 

I don't know how fast plants can produce vehicles but 2021 will be on production line as well.....they may get full pop come august/sept

Count me as one of those people...  My lease is expiring and I was hoping that the "massive incentives" would make it easier to jump up to a 3/4 ton. Boy was I wrong... At this point new is more than I want to pay and there are not really any used trucks out there because there aren't any new trucks out there to trade them in on. 

 

I am still hoping that the 2020's will see some good incentives by Sept/Oct when the 2021's hopefully start to arrive.  I hate to buy a used truck and I am actually considering leasing a Ram 2500 since they offer a lease in the 3/4 ton.

I jumped up to 3/4 ton from 1500....I see $4250 cash on diesels right now but maybe no dealer discount ..they don't really discount 2500/3500s like they do 1500s anyway........I paid about 8k less than MSRP in April and inventory was low back than.....WT and LTZ/HC I still see some around but mid level trucks are tough to come by.....if searching nationwide, maybe bit easier...…

 

but come sept good luck finding one if they don't produce many more.....dealers around me are out, mostly LTZ and HC or WT

 

I couldn't find many used and when I did new was still a better deal....they really weren't taking much off...plus new you get full 3/5yr warranty as original owner....don't think it transfers over from owner to owner but could be wrong.....ones I seen at dealer only had 1 yr warranty I believe....could be a lot of ways that plays out with registered owners and miles.....still new wasn't really much more and well, you have new truck...….I was also looking at Ram and came really close to buying one....

Well I rolled the dice on taking July incentives in lieu of taking June. The July incentives went up $250.00 from $1,250.00 to $1,500.00. They just are not giving out much cash on the AT4 Truck. Mine arrived Friday at the dealership. They closed early and Saturday and Sunday they are closed. Pick up truck on Monday. Been a long wait for my 2020 GMC Sierra 2500 4WD Diesel Crew Cab. Monday I’ll send a pic on the photo thread. Good luck shopping.

Probably for the best. I had to buy custom out of town. Local dealer only had $65000 trucks (maybe 6?) and I was keeping the old one. After I signed, they only had one red one left and it was soon gone. Just noticed this week they finally got 2ore reds on the lot. Lots of chrome on them. This area has a lot of snowbirds. The dealer I went to had 2 other customs that sold within a week or 2 of mine. One of my bosses just bought a used 1500 and won't tell me what he paid for it.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
