Placed an order today and the dealership is telling me that Z71 is required when choosing midnight edition. Does that sound right? I thought Z71 wasnt being released until later half of the year.

Their system forces certain options with various packages that don't always coincide with what you can select in the online configurator. The question now is do they have allocation for your trim and options and how long until GM accept the order. If you're lucky and the dealer has allocation, GM should pick your order up today as they do this weekly on Thursday's. Congrats on the new truck!

Are you thinking of ZR2?  Because that's coming later.

 

Z71 is just the Z71 suspension option.  Rancho shocks, skid plates, hill descent control.

 

Midnight does require Z71.  It did on 2021-2023 as well.  Actually same as 2016-2019 trucks too, Z71 was required.  

 

From the 2024 Order Guide:

 

Midnight Edition, includes Black grille bar with "Chevy Black Bow Tie", Black grille inserts, chrome, with Z71 badge, Black skid plate, Black Silverado, trim level and tonnage badging, Black bowtie on horn pad, (DP6) Gloss Black mirror caps, Black hood vent surround, (VB5) painted front bumper, (VT5) painted rear bumper, (CGN) Chevytec spray-on bedliner and (RVS) 4" Black assist steps, LPO

 

4WD only. Requires Crew Cab model, (PDU) All Star Edition, (Z71) Z71 Off-Road Package (PQB) Safety Package, (GBA) Black exterior color and either (H0U) or (H0Y) Jet Black interior trim. (H0Y) Jet Black leather-appointed interior trim requires (PCM) Convenience II and (CXH) Leather Package. Includes (PTW) 18" high gloss Black aluminum wheels, (QG3) LT275/70R18, mud-terrain, blackwall tires, high-intensity LED headlamps and (DWI) trailer mirrors. May upgrade only to (S9O) 20" high gloss painted wheels with (QF9) LT275/65R20 all-terrain, blackwall tires. When ordered with (QK2) Multi-Flex tailgate, will include Black tailgate bowtie.

 

 

And here's the description from the 2021-2023 order guides:

 

NEW!  Midnight Edition, includes Black grille bar with "CHEVROLET", Black grille inserts with Z71 badge, Black skid plate, Black Silverado, trim level and tonnage badging, Black bowtie on horn pad, (DP6) Gloss Black mirror caps, Black hood vent surround, (VB5) painted front bumper, (VT5) painted rear bumper, (PTW) 18" high gloss Black aluminum wheels, (QG3) LT275/70R18, mud-terrain, blackwall tires, (CGN) Chevytec spray-on bedliner and (RVS) 4" Black assist steps, LPO  Requires Crew Cab model, (PDU) All Star Edition, (Z71) Z71 Off-Road Package, (GBA) Black exterior color and either (H0U) or (H0Y) Jet Black interior trim. (H0Y) Jet Black leather-appointed interior trim requires (PCM) Convenience II and (CXH) Leather Package.

I thought the later release was ZR2 not Z71

My dealership said they can't actually place an order for me.  They said they can't even log in to the ordering system yet because they haven't even been told how many allocations they are getting.  Did your dealership confirm that they actually placed the order for you?

I called two dealerships and none of them are taking 2024 HD orders yet.

I called a dealership who may actually have an allocation.  They said they could log in to the ordering system and start building one, which the salesperson says means they should have an allocation available.  I sent them an email with what I want to order, and he said he'd place the order tomorrow.  We'll see!

Nope, I'm in Texas.  However, this dealer now says that they can't actually place the order but would try again next week.  It seems like these auto manufacturers are really disorganized.  I know Ford isn't any better because I've ordered through them before, too.

oh well, i'll try again next month, hopefully things settle down a bit and we can get a more accurate date for ordering one of these.

Yeah I realized I was talking about the zr2 being delayed. Whhoooops z71 Is fine.

 

My dealer sent me a build sheet. No pricing yet unfortunately, also they said they are the largest dealer in my state and I'm the firs to order so they should have allocation.

 

The only issue I have is the price being MSRP. With how messed up the economy is right now you'd think dealerships would start making deals. Also anyone have any clue how much cheaper this build will be vs a Denali ultimate? I'm thinking this build will come out to like 90 or so and a Denali ultimate will be like 105 or something.

I would say 5-10 cheaper.  I like Denalis dont get me wrong.  But its an awful lot of money for stickers.  My AT4 going line by line is exact other then stickers and grill and was 6k cheaper then an equivalent Denali.

      OCI, not when but why?

      What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.

      People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.

      Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.
