How come when i call all of my local dealerships that they tell me they are not accepting orders for the refresh yet... seems like they all would have access if any of them did. I see several of you have already placed your orders.

Might mean they have already ordered their current allocation.

I had a reservation at a dealer local to me and they kept swinging between allocation issues and asking the president of the dealership if it was ok to order….I made a reservation immediately after the reveal online…went to another dealer they were happy to accommodate my order on Monday and said the factory is retooling now or soon and they would keep me in the loop as the order progressed. I did put down money

I paid the $100 to reserve an AT4X last Fall. Salesman contacted me yesterday and told me that GM is only allowing me to pick the color, and I cannot select any options. Weird. They are not asking for a down payment nor quoting me a price.

 

I placed the order and am hopeful I can add options at a later point and that I do not have to deal with any malarkey further down the process. I purchased my current 2019 AT4 from them, and that buying experience was great. Hopefully this goes the same.

I just ordered a 2022 HD but my dealer is telling me it will probably be a 2023 by time it gets built! I'm not sure if the refresh will hit the HD trucks by then and what the price will be but ill take the gamble!

I put a reservation down for a 2022 AT4X as well. Dealer called two weeks ago to pick a color. Very hard to pick a color, when they are just photoshopped over a standard image. Ended up going with Titanium Rush metallic. Only other question I was asked was if I wanted side steps or not.  No idea when it will be built/delivered. Dealer said that I would get email notifications when order was accepted and at varius stages of the build.

I am waiting to order a 1500 double cab. Dealer said yesterday they aren't even accepting orders for 1500 and don't know when.

 

Would like to see the colors as well for the refreshed rigs. This is getting ridiculous.

GM sent me an email with the brochure. It looks like most of the options are dealer accessories. I did not see the Borla as an option, which is a requirement for me.

 

Truck looks fully loaded otherwise.

Ordered refreshed 2022 Sierra Denali 1500, last month received a call from the dealer and configure options and color. Price was discussed over the phone and dealer also sent the build sheet. The price of the base Denali 1500 is $65,395, the build came to $67,090 after options.

 

Here is my timeline so far:

 

11/27/21 - Paid $100 deposit on GMC website for the reservation

01/19/22 - Received a call from the dealer, configure color and options.

02/04/22 - Received email fro GM saying my order was accepted and production will start.

 

... waiting on updates at the moment

I just got the call Sat Feb 5  going next week on Tuesday to order the new refresh. They can do orders they still don't have final price lists.

 

So playing the Lottery the Refresh price has not jumped yet.

I was able to order WBC LPO Cat back GM Performance Exhaust on mine. $1895 It is a dealer installed option. Everyone says it is made by Borla.

This is my timeline.

 

1. Reserved Sierra 1500 AT4 through GMC website for $100 on 1/7/22.

2. Dealer contacted me on 1/27/22 to place order. Total was $68,470 pretty much fully loaded.

3. Got email from GMC on 2/4/22 with the customer order guide which was late since I had already placed my order.

4. Waiting for whatever the next step is...

 

Something I did not know is that the AT4 only comes with Duramax or 6.2 L engines. I ordered the 6.2L. I could upload the "receipt" if you'd like.

They can absolutely see the pricing right now. It took me a month of harassing every local dealer but I was finally able to put in an order for an AT4 on Monday which shows my MSRP with options as $64510. I noticed that GM upped the pricing at https://www.gmc.com/future-vehicles/2022-sierra for the AT4 from $60995 to $62095 so I must've gotten in on the old pricing. The email GMC sent about my reservation says "Reserved vehicle MSRPs are subject to change in GM’s discretion any time before an order is placed. Placing an order with your dealer will lock in the then current MSRP." I have a feeling my window sticker will come in showing a higher price so convincing them to stick with the original is going to be awfully fun. This happened to me when I ordered a 2010 Camaro and I had to raise hell with the dealer when I picked it up to make sure they didn't try to charge me the higher price even though GM was billing them under the lower pricing. 

 

The dealer I placed my order through had been telling me they couldn't place orders until now but I found a page on their site that has 8 dealer stock orders already in 🙄. A lot of the problem is sales guys don't know much and typically don't have access to the Order Workbench so they don't know what they're talking about. My order is at status 1100  but they and another dealer told me Monday that AT4, AT4X, and Denali are all constrained so who knows when it will be accepted by GM and move to 2000.

    • When I bought my 14 GMC I turned it off with an handheld programmer. With my 16 Odyssey I left it on solely because I didn’t have much money in the vehicle. There’s a device to turn it off that’s a little more involved. The GMC at 72 MPH the deactivation was on very little the deference was 1/2 mile per gallon. The Odyssey is on over half the time at 72 mph. 
    • Anyone ever thought about switching the interior door panels from the base model to the Denali style? I’ve seen that you basically have to cut, sand, mold, paint, the window switches together to get the look right. Is that the main reason people don’t bother doing the swap? Seems like the only method that is easy I guess, without having to mess around with wiring and stuff.
    • Replace the fuel pump with an OEM AC-Delco.
    • Hello, first time posting here. I have an 03 Chevy 1500HD with the 6 liter gas engine. The truck ran fine until the fuel pump died on me and had to get it towed. Replaced the fuel pump with a precision pump from O’rileys and changed the fuel filter while I was there. The truck will run and drive now but it wants to idle around 500 rpm when in drive and it tries to stall if you touch the gas. It drives fine though, just doesn’t want to idle. Put a fuel pressure gauge on the rail and only have 50 psi. I guess these trucks should have 55-62 psi to run right. I thought the regulator might be the issue because when I would unplug the vacuum hose it jumped to 56 psi. Replaced the regulator and no change. The only thing I can think of is that I was sold a faulty fuel pump. Any help would be appreciated because I’d rather not have to take the bed off again if I don’t have too. Thank you!
    • I've been wrenching on GM trucks for 17 years. And I need to get something off my chest because it's been weighing on me for a long time. After all that time, all those motors, all those people standing in my bay, I've figured out there are really only two kinds of owners. The ones who already know about this. And the ones who are about to find out the hard way. A guy came into my shop a few weeks back in a 2018 Silverado 5.3. Sharp guy, maybe 35. Knew his truck cold. He'd been on the forums, read the threads, done his homework. He only rolled in so I could double-check a little module he'd already plugged in himself. Wanted a second set of eyes on it. Ten minutes, in and out, drove off happy. Two days later, a completely different story walked through the same door. Older fella this time, in a 2016 Sierra. Gorgeous truck, clearly babied, not a scratch on it. Wedding ring. Looked like a guy who took care of his stuff. He was in because his engine had started knocking on the way to work. And by the time I got the valve cover off, I already knew it was too late. Lifter collapsed. Cylinder 5. Camshaft chewed up. The whole top end shot. Same kind of truck. Same motor. Same roads, probably the same dealer. The only thing separating those two men was information. I've been at this since 2008, and I've worked on everything GM puts out. Silverados. Sierras. Tahoes. Yukons. Suburbans. Escalades. The 5.3 and the 6.2. Doesn't matter which badge is on the tailgate. They all carry the same problem. So here's the information one of those guys had and the other one didn't. It's called Active Fuel Management. AFM. GM started building it into their V6s and V8s back in 2007 to squeeze out a little better mileage on the highway. Maybe a mile or two a gallon. All to hit government fuel economy numbers. The way it works, the motor quietly shuts down half its cylinders when you're just cruising along. And the little lifters that pull that off have a tiny pin inside them that's constantly clicking in and out. Lock, unlock, lock, unlock. Hundreds of times a drive. Thousands of times a week. Eventually one of those pins wears through. The lifter drops. And it starts grinding the camshaft down like a chisel on butter. And what nobody tells you is that the shudder you feel around 40 or 50 mph? That's the system cycling. Every single time. Here's what really gets me. The pre-2007 trucks, the ones without AFM, they're bulletproof. I've got customers still daily driving them with 260,000 miles on the odometer. Not a problem in the world. GM took a perfectly good motor that would have lasted a lifetime and bolted this system onto it. And it is wrecking engines that should have run forever. The guys who hang around the forums already know all of this. So do the techs. They handled this years ago. They didn't sit around waiting for the dealership to mail them a warning letter, because that letter is never coming. It's the guys who figured somebody would've told them who end up on my lift. And I want to be clear, because this part matters. Maintenance has nothing to do with it. I've torn down motors with barely 30,000 miles on the clock. I pulled apart a Tahoe last summer with 24,000 on it. Practically a brand new truck. Owner had it less than a year. Spotless oil. Best synthetic money can buy, changed early every time. Made no difference. I've seen guys with full dealer records, every interval stamped. Made no difference. The oil changes were never the problem. The pin was. And no amount of babying that truck stops that pin from cycling every single time you drive. That's the part that eats at me. These are good motors. Take the AFM out of the equation and a 5.3 or a 6.2 will run 300,000 miles and never blink. So a few years ago I started telling every single owner who comes through my doors the exact same thing the smart guys already knew. Get yourself a FullForce disabler. It plugs right into the port under your dash. Couple of seconds and you're done. It just tells the computer to leave every cylinder running, full time. No more cycling. No more beating those lifters back and forth every time you turn the key. It doesn't reprogram anything. Doesn't touch your tune. And unplug it before a dealer visit and there's absolutely zero trace it was ever installed. I've had customers come back at 40,000, 60,000, 80,000 miles after I put one in. Zero issues. The trucks run smoother. And the lifters aren't getting beaten to death every single drive. I won't sit here and tell you it's magic. A lifter that's already damaged is a lifter that's already damaged, and this won't un-ring that bell. But it takes away the one thing causing all that wear in the first place. That's the whole game. You don't need a five-thousand-dollar delete. You don't need an expensive tune. You don't need to tear anything apart. You just need to stop the cycling. I'm not writing this for any company. I'm writing it because I'm tired of watching the guys who didn't know pay four and five figures for it. I'm tired of being the guy who has to break the news. I'm tired of knowing that the guys who did know fixed the whole thing for the price of a tank of gas, and the only difference was that somebody told them first. If you drive a Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Yukon, Suburban, or Escalade from 2007 or newer with a V6 or V8, you've got AFM. You've got those lifters, and they're cycling every single time you drive. So be the guy who already knew. Not the one I'm scraping metal out of next month. EDIT: A bunch of folks asked, so here it is. The one I put my faith in is FullForce. This is where to find it: https://www.tryfullforce.com/products/fullforce™-afm-dfm-disabler They back it with a 60-day guarantee too. I've handed out more than I can count and not one's ever come back to me. Not one. See less
