Picked it up last week

 

Madness I tell ya

Hello from Texas, New to the forum here. Ordered a 2024 Chev 2500 on Aug.10th.   Very basic, Work Truck, Double Cab, 4WD, Skid plates, roof lights, and 18" steel wheels.  A little back story, I ordered a Ford f-250 [same options] , on Nov. 17th 2022.   I cancelled the order 9 Months later, when I found out it wasn't going to be built. 9 months, no truck, and was told to change my order to a 2024, and add about $1000.00. On top of that I had to make quite a few phone calls/emails to get my deposit back. I'm not happy with Ford, or the dealer. I'm looking forward to this new Chevy. It would be nice to have it by Christmas, but I'm not desperate.  My last Chevy was a 1955 [1st series] 6400 firetruck. My current truck is a 2011 Toyota Tacoma, 4 door, 4WD with only 71,000 miles, I put a UTE aluminum flatbed on it about 5-6 years ago. I really like the flatbed, I'm going to have CM flatbed installed on this new Chevy. The Toyota has been a dream to own, go wherever I want, never gave me a problem, BUT.... after 12 years I just want something new. Plus, I told my wife I was going to look at new trucks, and said, "You should get whatever you want". I sure do like my wife.

I ordered the basic WT, regular cab, summit white, 4x4, cloth seats, no options. Just what every single fleet buyer would order. Ordered June 9th. Still waiting for Chevy to give an allocation to my dealer. It’s discouraging to read about Chevy already building other peoples trucks even before mine is picked up byChevy. It’s an insane business model. I’m going to pay with cash, and, it’s gone up $1000 since I’ve ordered.

It appears that GM only wants to build crew cabs. So good luck. I've had a double cab ordered since Feb 6th. Finally got an allocation on June 30th. But it still doesn't have a build date. With the looming strike, I don't expect to see the truck this year now. As long as your order was placed as a sold unit in your name, the price at the time you ordered should be locked in if that makes you feel any better.

Anyone else place any orders for 2024 GMC Sierra's HD?
Placed an order with robideaux Motors in Idaho and told there are over 30 orders ahead of me.
Truck was put into system but not accepted in Beginning of August they are saying I may get allocation come end of September.

What are you guys seeing out there?

Got a quick question for you. Roughly how long was it after your order went to production code 3400 that it was actually built. The reason I ask is because Sammy is saying I’m at 3400 but no production week. Was just wondering if this was the case with yours as well. Thanks

Well points to them for being up front about how many orders were ahead of you and not having an allocation yet. Not all dealers are up front.

 

I ordered a Chevy. Although I ended up later buying a different one.

 

but timeline was:

7/10 ordered - dealer already had an available allocation for my desired trim level

7/17 assigned TPW of 8/28

9/8 Built and awaiting shipment from Oshawa. (But that was with some help from the inside at GM…word is they were running 4-6 weeks behind from TPWs at least at Oshawa). 

So timing overall wasn’t bad…key was having an available allocation. But then my Red Hot Z71 sport package showed up available and the dark ash metallic chrome LTZ I ordered didn’t seem as fun…

 

Timelines are probably out the window right now though depending on what happens with a likely strike starting in a few days…

On the order sheet my dealer sent me there is an allocation group number. Im assuming this means they had an available allocation. 

If anyone is in the upstate NY area, Capitaland GMC has a truly honest, helpful staff. This will be my 4th new rig from them.

I have always felt it was important to develop a relationship with a dealer that most closely shares your values. I have been buying vehicles from the same dealer (with the exception of the 2 I bought from the local dealer that my son worked at for 3 yrs) since 1990. The salesperson I have dealt with has sold my family well over 15 vehicles. I usually only have to tell him the color and the powertrain of the truck I want to order and he knows the rest. I have never once given him a deposit when ordering. It just makes things so much easier.

Dealer reached out to me this afternoon, I supposedly have a TPW of this week so hopefully the strike doesn't effect it too much. 

 

Also it seems as if the Gm bot is a couple days behind as far as updates. anyone else have similar findings?

    • I tried before I updated the scan tool just incase an update messed it up, but it never worked so I updated the scan tool and it still didn't work.   Only difference is I click on Sierra not Chevrolet cause I have a Sierra.   If I click on 2026-2024 I didn't have any option to change placard, when I click on 2023 it does give me the option but when I try to do it,.it says vehicle not supported!   I have my region or market or whatever it is set to America I think, is that what yours is set to?
    • Its just that it worked on 2024 trucks on this forum and my 2025 model truck, unless GM did something since that point to screw up access or Autel has a bad update. I haven't had need to use my tool since last year when I did the changes to the placard pressure settings and since then I updated the software on my Autel but have not plugged into the OBD so hard to say if I would get a surprise as well.    All I know last year when I bought the Autel I was warned to be sure to update it before I tried using the unit as they said who knows how long ago unit itself was actually manufactured as the software could be way out of date. 
    • And so you had gone through the process of registering and updating the tool and so on ?. All I can say is that on the front page as the tool fires up you go to advanced mode, then vehicle model comes up and you choose Silverado ( not the DRW or EV  since your a single rear wheel ) , then I think its choice 2 which is 07/2021 - 12/2026 ( 433mhz 13542523 ) as that is the series of tpms sensors and then go down to choice 5 which is tire type/pressure selection. Hit yes and it says to connect to OBD port and turn ignition on.    Having said this, I updated the software in my tool lately and these year range choices look different from the past due to them doing some updates it would appear and I have not connected up to the OBD port since last year so hopefully I am not in for a surprise with them screwing up the software and that it won't work on my truck anymore either.    So my question is, when you plugged into the OBD and started your truck it had that message on the Autel screen "vehicle not supported" ?. That does seem odd as tire shops would be pissed right off if hey can't use their tool on the model year after mine that in theory is supposed to be much the same truck ... unless GM did some change in the computer system to block certain things from access. 
    • Understanding and using modern scan tools is its own body of knowledge. I had little hope that would work...programming access to the BCM is probably required and that is not easy for us consumers. Expensive scan tool, GM programming subscription, online authentication, etc.   It also may be a matter of finding the right dealer to program it for you. Flashing a modern BCM might be a little too advanced for most tire shops.
    • Update for anyone following:    Installed everything as shown in diagram. Opted for 8 AWG from Battery Positive to a 50A resettable inline breaker. 8 AWG is tied into to 2x 12 AWG wires feeding a 6 way fuse bus in parallel (manufacturer’s design of what I purchased).    4 of the 6 fuses available for circuits are tied to terminal 30 of each relay. I tied a jumper from one of my spare circuits off the bus to terminal 86 of each relay. The trigger, terminal 85, was pulled from my interior by way of T-Taps from the X61A-X5 pins 10, 11, 17 and 23. This was the hardest part of the job. Even with the X61A unbolted and the X5 removed - there was VERY little wiggle room.  I added back up lights that I want to come on with my cargo lamp - but when I would check continuity between S48A-X1 pin 18 to its respective landing point on the X61A-X5 it triggers the factory relay… Instead I opted for a add-a-fuse on the passenger interior fuse panel (fuse location 10 - cargo lamp) and ran it through the boot on the driver side to my load. Did this to avoid introducing any electrical gremlins.   Note: Please check for continuity between the S48A-X1 and the X61A-X5. In my case wire colours were not the same as other’s who have posted. To do a continuity check you need a Multimeter. Completely disassemble the S48A-X1 and remove the brown face plate off the X61A-X5 by way of a flat head screwdriver - this was the only way I could get any results.   The outputs, terminal 87 of the relays, were fed into a junction box and landed at Individual studs and were labelled Aux 1-4.    At this point, all you need to do is run wire to your loads and bring them to ground. I created a negative bus in the engine bay, all my negatives land here.    For anyone having issues with all of your new aux switch lights coming on with the press of one - I noticed this only to be an issue when the battery wasn’t hooked up to my relays? No idea why, but it was quickly corrected by having my system buttoned up and functional.
