After waiting 14 months from my original 2022 order my 2023 3500HD finally came home today.

Unfortunately, the original 2022 order that was never picked up due to allocation difficulties.

It was reordered July 22 as a 2023 MY. Due to someone’s screw up, not sure if it was dealer or GM but the code for bucket seats was omitted.
Meanwhile, December 1, 2022, the small single location dealership I ordered the truck from was purchased by a larger dealership group.

This dealership is telling me there is nothing they can do because it isn’t available as a kit, some of the parts aren’t available, and they didn’t place the order.

 

If anyone is interested, I have a high spec leather jump seat with under seat storage, rear vents, and 2 rear USB charge ports out of a 2023 3500HD LT. 

Would like to swap for a full center console. LT or LTZ

 

Willing to kick in some cash for price difference.

 

I have followed some of the other threads on here about swaps, seems pretty straightforward.


Located in North Central Iowa, can work out shipping.

Take a look around on car-parts.com. i did a quick look on there this morning and there are a few available.  A bunch on there for 1500's.  Im not sure if its the same console or not.  However, there are a few for 2500/3500 that are in one piece.

The set up you have and want to get rid of is one of my favorite things about my truck lol. I love the versatility of having six passenger seating and not having anything dividing the two seats. Trans hump is a nice place for Kleenex or wife’s purse etc.

I know. Once about every 3 years I might want it. I hate that I can’t fit a file folder in either the top or the bottom. 
 

My last 2 pickups had buckets with large center console, I have really grown to like it.

 

I drive a 2021 1500 LT Double cab for work. It has the cheap fleet cloth seat with no under seat storage. I folded the armrest down the day I drove it off the lot and haven’t raised it once. 

Really was hoping for the full console.

I totally agree Pryme.  The only thing I would like to find in the future is a back seat that has the fold down armrest and cupholders.  I looked on car-parts today and could only find it with leather of which I hate.

Sorry this happened to you. I was really wanting a GMC but had to go to a SLT or higher to get the bucket seats w/ full center console. Ended up with a Chevy because they allowed it as an option in the LT trim.

 

I really wanted the Convenience Package II but was on constraint so I went without but to find out a couple weeks after the order was placed, it was available. Dealer wouldn't let me place another order and other dealers wouldn't give me as good as a deal as I was getting. At the time I felt OK that at least the original dealer had immediate allocation but only to have a supply chain issue with the spray-in bedliner and delayed my delivery over 3 months.

 

Definitely not a fun experience for my 1st new vehicle that I dreamed about since graduating college 17 years ago.. I drove a 2005 Chevy Avalanche over 14 years and 260,000 miles to be frugal while raising a family. To top it off, the dealer said it would be delivered in Oct. so I sold my Avalanche around that time and had to borrow my folks' car until Jan. when it finally arrived.

I have not swapped yet. Have local body shop watching for take outs. 
What part of the country are you located in?

I am in FL. Be awesome to purchase your jump seat! I can PM you my info if you want to coordinate. Thanks much.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
