My truck was built during the week of 7/31 in Flint.  It is still waiting to be shipped.  The expected date is literally listed as Sept - Dec 2023.  Dealer says he has several trucks waiting for delivery to Rochester NY.  Anyone else having the same issue?  Anyone know why there is a hold up?

Any idea what determines if a silverado 2500hd is built in Flint or Oshawa?

Hi yall,

Placed my order  Aug 17.....2024 Silverado  2500HD High Country Midnight Edition gasser. Got my order number that day. Not accepted yet by GM. 

Congratulations. Hate to say it but be prepared to wait especially with the likely good of the strike. Since Order times will likely significantly increase

3500 Denali Ultimate Duramax SRW long box built 8/1 just arrived at the dealer today.  Left Flint MI around 9:00am and arrived here in Rochester NY at 4:45pm (tracked it with OnStar location alerts).  Pick it up tomorrow!

 

Official delivery date stayed "Oct-Dec 23" until the day it shipped I think.  Dealer said that has been pretty typical.

How do you track it with the Onstar?

Once you have a vin the dealer can track the vehicle if they choose to.

I had my dealer setup my OnStart account since I had a VIN number.  Only drawback is that the clock starts ticking on the "free" period.  Once setup you can use the map function of the myGMC app.  I setup a Location Alert on the vehicle and I got a notice when the vehicle left the location indicated.  Make the circle as small as you can as they moved my truck from one area of the lot to another just before it actually left.  Good indication it's about to go.  That was about a week for me.  Was pretty cool to watch it travel from Flint to my dealer.  I knew when it arrived before they did.  Picked it up yesterday.  Pretty awesome truck so far.  Very happy with it.

At first, Oshawa was only building certain popular configurations of the Chevy, while Flint built GMC and all configurations of Chevy. Not sure if that’s still true.

Oshawa can only build crew cab standard bed chevys 2500 and 3500.  Oshawa is limit on some of chevy options as well.  They currently can't build z71 sports there.

Hi gents

 

I put an order in for a 2024 SLT 3500 CCSB with the 6.6 gas back at the end of July with a local dealer. At this point he is telling me that he has had the allocation but GM isn’t allowing him or any dealer in the us to place an order for gas trucks right now. Can anyone with a gas truck on order corroborate this?

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
