For those of you that had your truck built in Fort Wayne, how long after the truck was actually shipped and moving did it take for you to receive it? I just found out mine is on the move as of today after sitting in a lot since April, but I'm on the west coast, so curious about timing.

On mine, I got notification from GM via email that it had shipped on 5/18 and it arrived at my dealer on 5/31. I live about 9 hours away from Fort Wayne in Missouri.

You need to contact GM. You should not have paid the MSRP increases.

 

Who from GM do you contact? I am in a similar situation, order placed 2/10 and vehicle was built as of 6/8 but is still not in transit. I would like to know how to go about getting reimbursed directly from GM. Thanks

I have called several numbers with no luck, saying that you have to go through the dealer for them to do it.  So...if anyone has a number to call, that would be awesome!  (Especially since there were 3 total increases that increased the msrp almost $4k!!!)

Sounds like you’re getting screwed by the dealer. Have you even tried talking the dealer about it? No way I would have accepted that when buying the truck.

 

They are probably pocketing the MSRP refund you’re supposed to get.

You need to work this out with the dealer you’re buying from. If they are charging you the higher MSRP they are screwing you. They very well know there’s a refund available on sold orders that have had a price increase. If they don’t give that refund to you, guess who gets it.

Posted previously in this thread but figured I would follow up since I am going to pick-up my ultimate tomorrow.  

 

Will recap the order process for me and then a quick note on the dealership I ordered through.  
I put a deposit down as soon as they were open in Nov. Think it got picked up In Feb and built. Finally made it to the dealership and is ready to be picked up.
 
Did hit one snag as the dealer stated that they are now wanting to do a $5K market adjustment.  Which is kind of out of left field and a warning to others to make sure and get something in writing when you order. 
I realize this is the dealership just taking advantage of the market and a lot of dealerships are doing the same thing.
I don't have any relationship with the dealership as I had just moved to Edmond OK at the time I put the $100 deposit down to get on the reserve list.
Really want the truck so don't have much a a choice other than to complain. Has supercruise and the 6.2 like I wanted. Just didn't see them being that crappy so close to the sale. Only thing I have is the fact that I put the deposit down and the build sheet. I don't have anything else in writing or anything that says they wouldn't do the mark up.
 
Bob Howard GMC is the dealership.  Just FYI to anyone looking for a new truck.

I picked up a Denali in Nashville last week.  It's not the one I ordered, which is now going to be built as a 2023.  The one I bought was ordered and the deal feel through so it was available and I had put my name on the list just in case the deal feel through.  It's the Pacific Blue Denali with the 6.2 and all options that were order are working on the truck, so I feel lucky to be able to find this.  Paid original MSRP and no dealer add on pricing.  Loving the truck so far.

I finally got word from the Sales Manager that my truck (AT4x was built but sitting in a lot waiting for chips. No expected date was provided regarding when it would ship.

My 2022 high country showed up over the weekend. Not much for options except LM2 and a bunch of little stuff. Only missing steering column lock and f/r park assist. Current MSRP was just over $68k, paid original GMS pricing of $62.3k. 

 

ordered 3/7

accepted early to mid April sometime

built 4/25

delivered 6/25

gmauthority has an article today saying now the 3.0L LM2 diesel is on constraint and dealers will be contacting people with orders - sounds like options are either the 2.7 or 5.3 or wait until next year for the 2023 with the new LZ0 engine.  Ordered 4/4/ gm accepted order 5/5 but still no TPW so I'm guessing I am not getting a truck built this year.

 

I'm not sure what I'm going to do.  My dealer has some 2022 Limiteds with the 3.0L diesel.  Downside to that is it doesn't have the refreshed interior, no HD surround vision which I am kind of ambivalent about and they are lacking parking assist, rear cross traffic alert, heated steering wheel and heated/ventilated/cooled seats - to be retrofitted at some future date whenever parts become available. 

 

I feel like the supply chain issues aren't going to get better and waiting for 2023's seems like that's no guarantee of getting a truck built either and with the way prices on everything are going up its a safe bet the 2023's will cost even more than the 2022 refresh..  At the same time if I "settle" for a 2022 limited it won't have the items noted above - I'm not confident the parts come in for the missing features anytime soon either - if ever. 

 

 

I ordered Feb. 3, order got accepted May 4, finally I got an email today from GM saying my vehicle is being built. I have a 3.0L LM2 in my truck so I don't know how bad the constraint is. I suggest you don't settle. If you are paying 60 grand for a truck, it better have everything you want. I didn't wanna delete the CarbonPro package so I bit the bullet for 4 months and it's finally paying off. Just an FYI though, usually if the order is accepted, they don't make you change your options, if your order was accepted with the LM2, you shouldn't have to change unless it is on extreme constraint. It usually means they just wont pick up anymore orders with the LM2.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
