Most interesting takeaway for me is power driver seat on Custom and Custom TB is standard, and the 6.2 is gone on the Custom TB and replaced with the 3.0 Duramax option instead.

Im ready to order a RST or Trail Boss w/ the 6.2 but I need to see some pics. I like the wireless CarPlay feature for sure!

Been waiting to place an order on a refresh Trail Boss in either Oxford Brown or Satin Steel -- both colors deleted, lofl

Do you know if the Red Tintcoat and Northsky Blue will still be available?

 

 

Yes.  Click on the Colors and Trim section, shows all available colors.  There is a drop down to change to LTZ and High Country colors as well.

Same here. RST in Cajun Red Tintcoat with the 6.2 and max tow package..

Very disappointed I can’t order a Ltz with Max tow and get skid plates and hill descent control with diesel. I guess Gm thinks you would never unhook the trailer and go offroad! What a bunch of clueless aholes! By the way way , I am mainly interested in the 3.73 that is why I want max tow.

Chevy is definitely going down a bad road,what kind of management decides to make a 4 cylinder engine their stock engine for their best selling truck (custom trail boss)? Morons....

That’s nothing new unfortunately. Could never get both NHT and Z71. They are each unique suspension packages.

3.73s?  When I do "Build Your Own" for GMC Sierra CCSB with NHT the axle ratio is 3.42 with the 6.2 and 10-speed.

Any of course GM deletes Satin Steel from the 2022's. They continue to mess up colors every year. All we ask for is a nice gray color.. heck, you can't even get a true gray on a HD Truck from GM.

Agreed. They continue to screw up the colors.

The 3.73 is a 3.0 exclusive. On the diesel max trailering package and the diesel off road package. Not sure if the diesel off road package is going to be available again, I didn’t see it in a quick glance of the order guide.

    • Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.
    • 10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O. 
    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
    • yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
