I called laura's They claimed to be the largest volume dealer in the country and would do 2024 3500 orders @ MSRP - No discount though.

 

Yeah they told me the same thing about being the largest volume. I have no way to confirm that, but after seeing their lot size (it's HUGE) and the fact they have SOOO many trucks (both 1500's and 2500's) I can only guess they aren't lying. I can't see GM sending them tons of trucks if they weren't moving them. When all the dealers within 200 miles of me, either have nothing or 1-2 AT4's.

 

Sucks to hear no discount on the custom order though.

I have until Feb 12th for RAM to get their crap together. I have a 3500 limited on order but they screwed up something and my order has been help since 9/11/22 while other trucks are being produced and shipped (and it's pissing me off) anyways. We'll see.

 

Has RAM built the truck already and you're just waiting for delivery at this point, or have they not even started on it yet?

Not even started yet. I ordered first day the banks opened up 9/11/22 and apparently they screwed up and had options that like werent fully baked yet or something so the truck I have is a frankenstein build that cant be built and they are having trouble editing the order? All this while I was told for months not to worry that it would be fine and thousands of other trucks built that were placed after me. 

 

I cant just reorder a new one either because pricing has gone up and some of the packages are no longer allocated or something. So I have a feeling they are going to have me cancel and I'll be getting a GMC.

My dealer just told me today that my 3500 AT4 has shipped and has an ETA of 1/13. So it will have been about 3 months and change from time of order until delivery. My order was placed on Oct 4th.

I wonder how much of this has to do with CAFE?    Too many V8's so they are throttling back and pushing out I4's?   They have done this before, telling dealers they can trucks but they must be a certain configuration, only choice the have is color.  Dealer has to take 10 I4's and they will give him a Trail Boss allocation.

In my area GM is running commercials showing the 1500 silverado having a bunch of discounts but only on the 2.7 turbo. Says it right in the commercial.

I just bought a 2023 2500 HD LTZ.  They started $8,185 under MSRP and we negotiated from there.  It was by far the best deal I found in the area to include comparable trucks from Ram and Ford.  Some dealers are still doing the $10k over MSRP for “market adjustment.”  The truck I bought was on the lot and not a custom build.  It is also on the complete other side of the country in comparison to the northeast.  Maybe this wasn’t what you’re looking for, but there are discounts out there.

Sounds like a great deal, I live in the Northeast and had to go out of state.I wound up getting almost 6k of my 22 LT 2500hd it was sitting on the lot but had 90% of what I would have ordered.

    • We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.
    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
