If you buy any vehicle now without an inflated trade in. Usually going for msrp or above. You will get hosed the next time around. If I was still working and had to buy for work. It would be a work truck stripped. Than go after market for goodies I needed for comfort. 

I can trade my 21 in for the same or more than I paid for it and can get a new on GMS, so with that said I can get the same truck I have for cheaper or more truck for the same price.  

 

I dont get all the bells whistles but I get a lot of them.  And cost wise and hassle wise its not worth getting the stripped truck and building it from there, have tried that before and it doesnt work out in th eend.

I just took delivery of my 2022 Denali 2500 Diesel on 1/7/22 and it has heated seats and heated steering wheel.

I went into this expecting a 3-9 month wait with a year left on my trailboss lease. So I gave myself some room to play with. Best tip i can give. Give yourself time, order the truck, and then forget y

The car pro radio program I listen to on Saturdays says with a five year old or newer SUV or truck. The trade ins are beating the mark ups. Certain lease vehicles are bringing lots of equity.

So I wonder if all the components are there such as the elements in the seats button on the dash etc, its just missing the components or brain to make them work. 

 

I have a 21 and with trade in values and my GM pricing it actually works out for me to get a new truck again.  But I dont want to be missing a bunch of items.   What you stated sounds ok if its only a for a few months, but almost sounds like an empty promise and almost feel like its a trap, in that 2-3 years down the road if GM never makes the truck right and when you go to trade or sell your going to get well that was a covid truck its not worth as much

i read on one of the GM sites GM moved the approximate time frame for activating the heated seats/steering wheel to Q3 '22 from their original goal of Q2 '22.   Saw a news report earlier this week that the global chip shortage will drag out longer than forecasted. 

"Bird in the hand..." comes to mind.  lol

From what I gather, all of the components will be installed just not functional.  It would be a real nightmare for the dealers if they had to tear dashes and seats apart to install switches, heating elements etc.

I ordered a 2022 Chevy duramax high country October 21st. The only way they would accept the order was if I dropped the high country deluxe option. I really wanted the rear view camera and the heads up display, but it wasn’t a deal breaker. It was scheduled for a build the week of December 6th. I got a vin the first of January. It is stuck in a code of 3800. I have quit asking the dealer because they don’t have a clue. I have tried calling dealers when I see a truck on there web site but they are sold with people waiting behind them. I just hope I get it buy April to pull my camper.

Sometimes I wonder if these dealers are playing games. When your long-awaited truck arrives at their lot, they could sell to you at the originally agreed upon sticker price, or they could sell to an impatient customer for $8K or $10K over. They can hold on to your deposit and order another truck, meanwhile you just started another wait period but you'd be none the wiser.

From the day of order to day mine came in it was 110 days, a reg cab 3500hd GMC. The dealer called me the day it arrived and offered me a check for 5k if they could sell it to someone else, I said no thanks I ordered what I wanted and it's mine. Get to the dealership and there is literally 4 guys trying to buy my truck that was already paid for on delivery......

My dealer was allocated a build slot and my order from 1/24/22 was placed (Code 1100) on 2/4.  As of now, apparently, Chevy is only allowing spray on bedliner options for the High Country trim levels.  Therefore, I had to proceed without it.  Not a big deal as there are plenty of options for that outside of GM.  I am assuming they are having supply issues with the liner material and are rationing for their top tier models.  I can only assume the Denali would fall in there as well.  Of all the options I put on this truck I wasn't expecting the ChevTech spray on bedliner to throw a flag.  Very early in the process here so we will see if anything else pops up.

To close out my input on order time to delivery time.  Just picked up my truck.

* Initial discussion to get order started - October 3rd.

* Order placed into system -December 2nd

* Truck built - early February

* Truck arrived at Larry H. Miller in Murray, UT - February 25th

It shipped straight from production to the rail yard, and then to dealership, arriving a bit earlier than expected.  It did not come with heated seat/steering wheel or with the Bedside Storage Box option that we had ordered in December.

 

3500HD LT CC/SB 4x4 Cherry Red Tint Coat/Gideon-Very Dark Atmosphere 6.6 Gas engine

Options:

Convenience Package

Bedside storage boxes  (not available)

Gooseneck 5th wheel package

Power Sunroof

Leather package

Convenience Package II

Auxiliary Trailer Camera

Front Bucket Seats with Center Console

Trailering Mirrors -Heated Power-Adjustable, Auto Dimming w/Turn Indicators

Interior Convenience Package

Snow Plow Prep/Camper Package

Dual Alternator & Batteries

Multiflex tailgate

Bedview Camera

Black Molded Splash guards

Autotrac 2 Speed Transfer Case

High Idle Switch

Upfitter Switch Kit

Engine Block Heater

Trailer TPMS

 

In November we could have placed the order, but the Gooseneck hitch option was restricted, and I wanted the OEM setup.  In order to get the next slot in December (which by then had released the restriction on the Gooseneck option), we had to eliminate the Roof Marker Light Option.   Dealer didn't know Bedside Storage Boxes would not be delivered until trucks showed up on their lot.

 

Overall, I'm very happy with how things turned out.  The exclusion of the bedside storage boxes turned out for the best, as my plans changed between the time of order and the truck showed up.  The dealership was awesome to work with.  From order through delivery, the Sales Person, General Sales Manager and Finance Manager were really great.

I placed my order Feb 22/22. As of today truck was at event code 3000.  Any input as to how long it's been taking to go from 3000 to production?

You got lucky? I ordered a 2500 Custom, gas in September. With hardly any options. Still nothing. All I have is a VIN saying its built. It has been slotted as "Missing Parts". That was in January.

      2015 Silverado 3500 right rear turn indicator failure

      By davester · Posted

      consider doing electrical testing?  I would guess some power or ground wire/connection has a problem.   alldata.com has wiring diagrams, connector pinouts and diagnostic procedures you can use to find where the problem is.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By davester · Posted

      can you tell if the reader is actually trying to get codes, and the pcm is reporting none, or is your reader just silently failing because it's not communicating with the pcm?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Any joy with this truck seems to be short-lived.   The CEL for P0172 ("bank 1" too rich) is now "intermittent".   I'm not sure where to check, or re-check, and my energy to keep chasing problems with junk is wearing thin. The P0172 seems to set as I'm coming to a stop, completely off the throttle, when fully warm. At least, that's what it's done the 3? times it's set.   Everything appears normal on the scanner EXCEPT long term fuel trim. There's only one bank on this vehicle because it's an OBD 1.5 with only one upstream O2 sensor. At idle, it's around -16.4% and will dip to -18% occasionally at idle or off-throttle. LTFT approaches 0 when throttle is held at 2500rpm. Short term appears normal, much closer to zero all the time. The LTFT tells me the engine is running rich at idle but compensating at higher load. But, why?   The EVAP purge valve doesn't appear to be leaking/sucking fuel vapor continuously. Is it sticking just as I come to a stop and the engine is choking on fuel vapor and sets the P0172? But that doesn't explain the persistently negative LTFT. Disconnecting the purge valve doesn't seem to make any difference.   I suppose that leaves another dang issue with the fuel injector. A leaking fuel pressure regulator, a new leak in the spider, or a leaking fuel injector/poppet valve I didn't see, or a small crack in one of the spider legs.   The vacuum line leading to the fuel pressure regulator doesn't have raw fuel in it. It doesn't even smell like fuel when it's pulled off, not until you suck air through it, then you can tell it leads to a fuel component. I'd consider that normal? Nothing is signaling this is a FPR issue from the outside, at least.   The oil smells like fuel but it's not building volume. I've noticed most oil in most engines smells like fuel to some degree so it's hard to say if the smell is an issue or not. Or if the engine just still smells like fuel because the crankcase was full of it a few hundred miles ago. But it's been changed twice since that original issue of the leaking fuel line dumping fuel into the intake.   Patience is running very thin. Every win seems to be accompanied by two steps backwards, or another issue that leads to removing at least the top half of the intake manifold. Enough! LOL

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      First off you mentioned "Toyo Says" and then gave the pressures 45/50, was this some person at the tire shop that pulled those numbers out of his head ?   Now of course I can't know your exact axle weights front and rear, however I have much the same pickup as yourself other than not knowing your starting weight as per the pounds the truck rolled out of the factory at due to the options yours did or didn't come with or what you have added beyond the extra tire weight. The correct way to know 100% where a person is at is by weighing each axle with the typical weight the vehicle is driven with and that means taking into account passengers and making sure you figure in a full tank of fuel and a little grace for whatever you may put in the bed "groceries" !    I am looking at and not that it really matters as all the tire companies use the same charts anyway, but I am looking at the comprehensive Toyo tire chart in the section that your tire falls under and I know it sounds confusing but your tire is not an LT metric tire like your factory tire but instead because its a standard inch measured tire its under a different category called an LT floatation series tire. That makes a difference as LT metric tires they don't want to see run below 35 psi at highway speed where as with the LT floatation series it can be run down to 25 psi on the highway as long as the weight on the said size of tire is agreeable with or less than that minimum 25 psi. It blows many people away that how is this physically possible, an empty truck for one thing and larger tires with the same size wheel diameter have a lot more air volume so they can carry the same weight as the smaller tire with less air pressure.    So my truck, I have the stock 275/65R20 wheels and tires and I have a bit of weight in the box with a bak flip cover and a rubber bed mat and some tools and spare gas. The front of my gas truck weighs a bit more than some trucks of the similar spec due to double batteries and alternators. However with full fuel and just me in the truck I am weighted such that I can run 40 front and 35 rear and so that is what I have done since day one.    If I base your truck at or slightly below the weight of my truck, in theory with your tires going by the tire chart you might be right around a minimum of 30 pounds front and 25 pounds rear. Of course that would hit pretty much minimum cold inflation pressure one could run with that tire size and a near empty truck. If you have access to an accurate weigh scale to do individual front and rear axle weights I would suggest you do that and make sure your topped up with fuel and whatever else in the truck before you weigh it and then you will have a great starting point to work off of and figure out what your bare minimum pressures are you can safely run. If you do much in the way of hot weather high speed driving, bumping up a bit for a safety margin is never a bad idea but just depends on what type of driving you do. I will include the Toyo chart and the floatation series sizes start on page 31. Without a doubt at these pressures I am speculating at minimum wise for your truck, it would most certainly ride very different then it did when you were using 55 lb front and rear.     https://www.toyotires.com/media/pxcjubjs/application_of_load_inflation_tables_20200723.pdf
