I'm about to close a deal trading my current truck for a new RST. Im happy with the trade offer on my truck and im happy with the price of the new truck. 

 

Im wondering if i should wait until the 2021 comes out to have the newest model with a possibly redesign or get the 2020 and kind of be a year behind? Will there actually be a redesign on the 2021?

go with the 20 because the values are at their peak right now for trade in. They will only go down.

 

2022 gets the redesign, I believe.

Any idea when the 21 will hit dealers? I'm curious how it will affect pricing of 2020s and if it will be worth waiting to buy the 2020 to save some cash?

Unsure but that's possible to get better rebates, for sure. The possibility of the trade in values drop as well go along with that. Trades are up because the lack of vehicles, now they are being produced and delivered, the used demand may not be as high? It may stay the same for a while though, really tough to say.

I had the same debate and ended up with a 2020 this weekend. The only difference for the 2021 is wireless Carplay/Android Auto. 2020 have rebates plus higher trade in values. But trade ins are already starting to go down since inventories are climbing again so I would buy now and not wait til later.

The value of your current truck will be less and the cost of a new truck will be higher in 2021. The truck build function is not even enabled yet for the 2021 trucks.

 

That said, I sold my 2011 Duramax a few weeks ago and planned to buy a 2020 1500 pickup but with the coronavirus out of control in the United States thanks to orange man, and the economy trashed as a result, I am postponing any major purchases until next 2021 at the earliest.

2021 starts production Monday 9/14.  Its probably 3-5 weeks before they hit lots.

If you want the new interior, you'll have to wait until 2022. 

Your trade won't be as much then.

Used truck prices are bonkers right now.  It's why I am considering selling my 2019 RST.

2021s are hitting the lots now. There isn’t any decent rebates on them though.  There isn’t much of a difference with the 21’s. The 22’s get an all new interior and a refreshed exterior. If you want a 20 wait till December bc Chevrolet will offer employee pricing for everyone. There are more packages available for lower trims for the 21 model year like the safety package, power up and down tailgate and later this year the multi pro tailgate.  As some one else mentioned wireless CarPlay and Android are available on the LT and up. Unfortunately wireless charging is only available on the LTZ and High Country thus making the wireless CarPlay and Android feature useless to me. You can add wireless charging if your a diy person. I can also tell you that many people are having problems with the wireless CarPlay and Android Auto in the 21 Tahoe’s. Their phone keep disconnecting.

I will more than likely be waiting until summer 2021. I am waiting for a redesign on the interior and if i do not like it will get a good deal on the 2021’s.

If you sell private party you won't have to worry about trade-in value which is always crap regardless.
Unless the tax incentives.... if you sell private party you have to claim as income. Trade it in, comes off the cost of the vehicle for tax.... at least in az.... 40new truck 10 for your old now only paying tax on 30... since you already paid the tax on the vehicle the first time. Az has high tax on vehicles and tags....

      Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks.

      With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
