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.

    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires. 
    • Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
