3-3-23 Paid deposit on 2024 Denali Ultimate.   3-10-23 dealer called with questions as he's ordering.  No updates since.

How is it to drive? Did you come from a 6spd truck?

i had a 20 and a 21 gasser. traded the 21 in on the 24. very noticeable difference in a good way with the 10 sp as soon as i pulled out of the dealerships lot. transmission shifts very smooth and the first few gears make the whole truck feel alot stronger than the 20 & 21. anxious to get the trailer behind this one but that may be a while.  so far the truck is very nice , interior is also a huge upgrade and i never thought i would say that cuz i always thought the 20-23 interior was pretty nice. . the only truck out of the last 4 that doesn't have a tire balance issue from the start  the Google software will take a little time to get use too after having a 18,20 and a 21. only have 57 miles on the truck so far LOL, but i love it and thumbs up for the 10sp. hopefully i can say that in 6 months.

Does the 24 still have those two small holes in the top of the tailgate inside that hand hold? Sounds like a very nice truck. Hopefully jetttech doesn’t see it.

That’s fantastic. you might be the first 24 owner on here. Keep us updated on your impressions. Especially the screens for Jett. Ha

That's pretty good, almost like "normal".  (aside from the $3500 rebate they offered back then)  I ordered my 2020 on Jan 31 and picked it up March 31 right before insanity hit.

Good to hear on the tranny so far.  I'm waiting on the identical 3500 HC only in white.  Ordered in Jan and it was also shipped already so hoping to see it any day now.

Is it a Flint or an Oshawa build ?  I am guessing Flint with shipping being so quick. 

yes, luckily it was built in flint, only 4 hours from me, was afraid if it was built at Oshawa shipping time could be unknown

    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
    • 2023 GMC 3500 HD, SLE, 6.6L Gas, 4x4, 6 Spd Options:  SLE Convenience Package; Driver Alert Package 1; Spray on Bedliner; X31 Off Road Package; TRAILERING MIRRORS, HEATED POWER -ADJUSTABLE, AUTO DIMMING, WITH TURN INDICATORS WHEELHOUSE LINERS, REAR INC. REAR AXLE - 3.73 RATIO INC. GVWR, 11,350 LBS. (5148 KG) INC. FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST, INC. ULTRASONIC     I have been launching my new boat and noticed some things related to the parking brake.. I usually set the parking brake (habit) when on flat ground for typical driving.    When backed down on the launch ramp to launch the boat and I place gear selector into Park, the parking brake activates automatically. My second nature is to set parking brake manually and noticed I was turing the parking brake off.  The parking brake appears to be setting itself automatically.   I looked all over my owner's manual and only found references to being on an incline and manually setting parking brake, or at times parking brake will be auto engaged, but nothing specific to my situation.    When is the parking brake automatically engaged?  Under what specific circumstances?  Can the auto set parameters be changed?     I like the auto set feature.  It would be nice if always engaged when shifted into Park and released when shifted out of Park (like my wifes 2025 RAV4).   Thanks!    
    • www.enginelabs.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/     www.enginelabs.com/news/oil-viscosity-can-the-numbers-be-misleading/ The Big Lie… Coming full circle to the reason Lake discusses the Porsche engines in particular. Based on the 2000 samples in the SPEEDiagnostix database, increasing the oil viscosity in these engines, even those run on the track, showed no significant difference in results.   The smoking gun was in the oil chemistry. That is where the data shows higher instances of more wear. Molybdenum was the key; the higher the amount, the less the wear. Speed postulates that higher viscosity oils have more thickeners to artificially inflate their viscosity numbers. These thickeners lose viscosity under shear, and the result is that not all oils of the same viscosity have the same shear stability.   Having enough viscosity is the most important characteristic, but according to Speed, once that required viscosity level is reached, additive chemistry matters more than additional viscosity. Speed also states, oil pressure problems on the racetrack aren’t a viscosity problem; it’s an oiling system problem. Running a thicker oil is just a band-aid for an underlying oiling system problem.
