So something that I find very concerning, with the online configurators up. I went over to gmfamilyfirst.com to build out the exact AT4X I have on order. And a huge alert stating "This trim is not eligble for the employee discount". And it is listed for every single trim package on the new Sierra 1500.  So, if they are really not allowing an employee discount on the new trucks, there will be alot of people upset, including myself. Will be interesting to see what happens. 

I am right there with you! I've had a 2022 GMC SLT 4x4 Crew Cab with the Duramax and pretty loaded on order since the end of Dec. Now seeing on GMFamilyFirst that there is no employee discount and when I build it out it is coming to just under $63K. As a GM employee this is somewhat disheartening to say the least.

This is what I have ordered can't wait for the Duramax because gas in Canada with the stupid carbon tax on is out of control... $127 fill up today. I figure gas is going to cost $800 a month before this BS is over.

Once your order is gone ( and accepted) is there a way to change a package.....or it is what it is???   Thanks for reading.

They fixed this on the supplier and employee discount websites. Trucks are eligible for discount.

I have an AT4X reserved since the reveal in October. TPW of 3/7. Not sure if this is Mexico or Fort Wayne. Do we get to keep our MSRP locked in at the original rate?

The email gmc sent a while back indicated msrp would be locked in. Back in the day I ordered a new Camaro when it came out and GM upped some of the prices and GM indicated that the msrp was locked in at the order date but some dealers (including mine) tried to go back on it. The confusing thing in that situation was that the window sticker for when the car arrived was the new price so they wanted to go by that. After some back and forth I convinced them to honor the original price. Will be curious to see what happens with these.

Has anyone had their refresh order picked up with carbonpro? I ordered an AT4 back in January but the dealer is being told there is a material shortage. Still 1100. No word on if they are just taking like 1 or 2 carbonpro orders at a time or if they arent taking any

I ordered an AT4 carbon pro on 1/27/22, but it has not been accepted by GMC yet.

There might be a longer wait for allocation for those because of the denali ultimate getting the carbonpro bed. They are getting priority and gm cant make the beds as fast as regular production goes.

Has anyone seen this video before? Refreshed 2022 Sierra AT4 regular cab and AT4X out on the wild in another country... 

 

hope this post is not out of topic but I find this very interesting

This is basically what my dealer told me as well. I ordered a carbon pro AT4 on 1/20 and it’s still at 1100. When I asked why, he said the carbon pros are slated to be a later build due to materials so it’s going to be held up for a long time.

I’ve got an order in on a Denali with reserve package. And though it was only another $500 to get the carbonpro bed and Kicker system, dealer told me there was 0 allocation for the option and I was risking a major delay if I opted for it. Decided to leave it out.

Yeah i know why they are doing it, I was just curious if anyone other than the people who got the denali ultimate have gotten a build accepted. Figured maybe for every 10 ultimates they might build 1 of something else

My order for a Denali was accepted for production on 2/11. Not an ultimate though.

    • Can it still be Assembled II?   Viscosity on the decline by various means. Heat on the rise making that worse. Engine RPM in the tank. Smaller motors with more boost trying to emulate an electric motor. Full torque, zero rpm. Then we will triple the OCI. Argh.    But wait....there is more. LSPI has pushed a shift from Ca to Mg and as that cost more PLUS the run to lower sulfur compounds the TBN is moving in the wrong direction for the increased OCI's demanded.    That not being enough to placate a demand for a parameter they can't measure the other sulfur bearing compounds are also under attack. That would be zinc and phosphorus sulfonate compounds. To some degree those are being replaced with boron esters and others, i.e. titanium ect. All of which have shorter service lives. And there there is the "Secrete Sauce" marketing for AW adds that 'Can't be detected by UOA's" but trust me because I (the blenders) never ever lie.    Spoiler alert; ALL additives are sacrificial! Smaller amounts of the old blended with less robust versions of the new do not equal longer service lives. So what are the blenders recommending? Wait for it.......   MOVING THE GOAL POSTS! OMG      Let's declare the long standing TAN/TBN crossover irrelevant and tell people that soot is a great 'graphite' based lubricant which can aid tribo films. Wait, what? Let's declare that the standards used for oxidation and nitration were to conservative and can be expanded. Let's tell them that because GDI fuel dilution, although being a VISCOSITY KILLER and an acid generator is actually okay because we have better base oils that limit viscosity failure limits. (Said knowing this is measured in fractions of a centipoise and in bases not commonly used in shelf oils)   Lying from the heart is not just the new normal but we have a public, a very young public, that is so ignorant of the facts and so sure of their "RESEARCH" into AI driven models base in regurgitated  instead of scientific research based unvarnished, peer reviewed FACTS that the incoming guard is loosing their grip on reality and the OEM's are tickled pink while the blends bend the knee.    You have an ever limited set of tools to work with. And sooner or later those will be taken from you as the API and the EPA strangle the last remaining fluids from the system. What you have left is your wits. If you care to use them.    At some point in the very near future it will not longer be possible to do "What is best for the machine", and be replaced with "The best you have access too". You WILL be rewarded with half the life and twice the cost. That isn't that hard to predict.         
    • I trust you saw the other comment where he knew what he was talking about !. Yes, these darned newer vehicles with all their so smart they are stupid technology, goes and drains the battery down. As you might see my other comment, I installed a Noco 5 battery tender under the hood and at this point still have the cord routed so I have to lift the hood and then plug it in but am typically parked in a garage or a shed so its not risking the engine hood in the wind. That way I am assured or hopefully so of not finding I have a battery drawn down and can't even start the truck and that also damages the battery to draw it down too far. 
    • I guess no surprise my guesses were wrong !, at least now I know if I ever happen to see it grayed out in my own truck as to what is going on.    I never happened to catch my truck with it grayed out, it seemed every time I would test to see if there was an update it never found anything and yet more than once I would check to see if there was an update and there was nothing, then a day later or even that same morning I would drive to town and after more than one engine shut down in town as I did my errands it would pop up that there is an update now ready to install and the only place I have a connection to the internet is at home by wifi so its not as if it grabbed the download while driving. I don't trust these new vehicles due to all the crap they can decide to do while sitting for some days not running and run the battery down so most of the time if I know the truck will sit for a few days I plug in the battery tender I have mounted under the hood and so the only time the truck must have downloaded software was when it was sitting in the garage where the signal is awful but I have that tender plugged in and somehow it managed to download it. I honestly detest all this crap, way to easy to leave a person stranded.    Since I don't trust any of it I don't do the install of the already downloaded software until I get home and sometimes have even sat in the truck to watch what its doing as its going through the process to its conclusion as its not like it is set up that it will tell you the next time you fire up the engine that the update that was initialed actually installed or installed properly. Yes I can go into the updates and see the list. After I go through the install where I feel its safe to do so in case it breaks down as a result, I will plug in the battery tender after the fact to recharge as I don't know how much power its taking just to do the install and that can take a while for it to install. 
    • Thanks for the reply. All settings were correct and the engine was off, as it was supposed to be. It turned out to be something simple. I took a drive for about an hour. I must have had a low battery without knowing it. The voltage gauge on the display looked ok. At the end of my drive, I shut off the engine and the update prompt came up and it updated normally. It’s ironic because one of the features of the update is a reduction of battery drain. 
    • when it's greyed out that is it's way of telling you that it's downloading the patch in the background. Eventually it will be fully downloaded and then it will prompt you at ignition shut down to run the update. I highly recommend doing the update once you get home and can run it a few times. I've had several issues with updates not going the first time around and I had to retry the update multiple times in my driveway before it was successful.   Some updates are huge and take awhile to download. You can help it by connecting to your home WiFi and keep the truck on service mode for the ignition and keep it alive for awhile on a battery charger too. There are specs it needs to be in for updating such as a full enough battery charge, no running ignition, etc.
