I am seriously considering ordering a 22.5' refresh and trading in my 19' RST. Can you negotiate any off of the MSRP or are you stuck paying that and hoping the current offers are decent when you take delivery?

I've been doing that.. all have said MSRP with one quoting $2,500 above.

Thanks for your response.  Very helpful.  I search on the chevy/gmc sites every couple of days but it seems my specs aren't very popular. I ordered (or tried to) a HC with a 6.2 and standard box.  Seem to be very few.  What's strange is the dealers are starting to receive the 22 LTDs like I ordered but only the 21 inventory is on-line.  21 or 22 LTD is fine with me, but now I need to go to individual dealer sites to see what they have.

 

Again, thanks for the info. Very helpful.

I stumbled into the '22 LTD inventory page a bit ago. You're right that you can't find these through the normal inventory links on chevy.com

Thank you!  I would have never found that.  Looks like a few possibilities for me.  I appreciate it.

I guess if you can get more than what you paid for your old truck MSRP is a little easier to swallow. No way in hell am I paying over that, these dealers are crazy.

I can't seem to find one that is spec'd to what I want without having more junk added in I dont want.  Can I just ask the dealership if they have available allocation from Chevrolet to place my custom order?

It depends what you want and if GM allows that configuration. I was told to go through the build and price tool on Chevy's website and that's what they ordered from. I wanted the Safety Confidence package that I had seen on other built trucks but it wasn't an option on the configuration tool. The dealer was able to find it and add it to my order.

The other issue is are you wanting a 22 Limited or a 22 refresh? I'm not sure how long the 22 Limiteds are going to be produced since the refreshed trucks are supposed to start production in the spring of 22.

as I've been shopping around at dealers within a 50 mile radius of me it seems everyone is still willing to pay MSRP or more, and the dealerships are not going below MSRP because of that. Even for new custom builds.  At this point, the dealers are raking it in and we are burning ourselves because people apparently dont mind paying MSRP or worse this late in the game (remember when the norm was never to pay Invoice....and GM would routinely do 20% off MSRP sales). gone are those days, and based on peoples purchasing trends, we'll continue paying more for less.

      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.
