Picked it up last week

 

Madness I tell ya

Posted

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?

    • Looks like it's riveted to me. What is wrong with that 1? Welcome to the Forum!
    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

    • Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
