Hey guys, just asked the dealer to put in an order for a new 2020 2500 and they told me there normal lead time was 6-8 weeks, but there not sure how long with the COVID. Anybody have a truck built recently? How long did it take. I guess I am not in any real hurry, just curious. Thanks.

Well I don’t see how they put in an order for you. The order deadline for MY 2020 was back in May. So they could only put in a order for a 2021. Unfortunately the production start up for MY 2021 is sept 28th. So if they did order one for you it’ll be a 2021 and I wouldn’t expect it till oct/nov. I was actually at my local dealer today asking about the same thing because I sold my truck yesterday and now I feel like half a man (truckless)

Well that would have been great info for him to tell me. The salesman said nothing of the sort. I thought the build sheet he gave me said 2020 on it but I will have to check it out when I get home. I am in no rush so Oct/Nov is cool with me but he didnt say anything about it not being a 2020...

Did you order a CC. If so you could still order one last week. If its a Dbl cab then it'll be a 2021

Spoke with the salesman I worked with in ordering my truck yesterday, and he said everything went through as far as he can tell. So I think like the other guy in her said it depended on what you were having built. He said when I mentioned this, that it did, because they cut off body styles and colors that they are no longer going to have in 2021 earlier in the year.

Well that’s good news. Maybe my dealer is full of $*^t. They don’t have what I want so they where trying to sell me something. Maybe they only have an allocation for a 2021 and that’s the line of bs they fed me. You never know with these guys unfortunately

The guy also told me they don't give out the build # anymore for you to track. Do you have know knowledge on this matter? He said I would call every 20-30 days and he would look it up, but I would love to be able to look it up myself whenever I want.

I ordered early in March. TPW is 8/10. I’m concerned about the quality now with so many workers being out sick.

Oh wow, so you ordered in March and they are not slated to start building until 8/10, or is that the targeted week for it to roll off the line?

I think the time line depends alot on what exactly is ordered. I ordered my 2500 crew cab LT gas in mid April(during the shutdown).  It arrived at the dealer mid July. I was surprised by how quick all things considered

    • We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.
    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
