Went to a dealer today and he indicated that it could take 6-8 months for an ordered truck to be built. I'm in Canada and they indicated that the dealership allocation is terrible compared to the US; he can only order a few HD/month which is restricted further by color and options. Don't know what the truth is, but I am ready to by a truck and there is sweet F-all to choose from and seems ordering (like I have in the past) is no longer an option. Crazy when a guy is willing to drop $120K (Canadian I know but still) on a truck and can't get what they want.

Well, this change of plan happened today!   Had an LTZ on order, kinda wanted the sport edition but couldn’t order it at the time due to constraint (wasn’t a deal breaker, want not a need).

Definitely some bad experiences ordering a truck. My 2024 AT4 HD is the first vehicle I’ve ever ordered. I sat down with the sales guy and built the truck. He went to the sales manager and came back w

My 2024 HC showed upon at the dealer Saturday.  Ordered it middle of January.  Should be picking it up some time this week.

The first obstacle is finding a dealer that will tell you the truth. Plenty of stories on here about people that were strung along by dealers with no allocations left. 

Mine took 12 weeks and the dealer told e straight up that he wouldnt have an allocation for a couple of weeks. Most of my other trucks (including my other HD's) took between 6-8 wks,  Flint is at full production and their numbers have stayed pretty good through the whole strike. I wouldnt doubt some items are on constraint due to systemic issues in the supply chain. An honest dealer can give you constraint information.  

My only constraint was running/step boards so I left them off and added and aftermarket set that I actually like way better than my previous ones.

Tomorrow I'm going to order my 3500 Ultimate. I'm already scared to hear how long I'll have to wait.

I received confirmation that my order was accepted by GM on 10/19 but I do not have a tentative build date yet. I can update when I get that.

Finally got my email they are building my Truck! Now lets see how long for completion and delivery!

Like @JStevie71 I received the email this morning (11/9) that they are building my truck. I believe this corresponds to event code 3400. Waiting on an update from Laura. So far Im quite happy with the process out of Laura.

 

As much as I like to support local businesses I strongly recommend folks order from a larger dealership if they would like their trucks on a reasonable timeline.

Shipping and logistics is still an issue in Flint. I heard there are around 8000 trucks in the shipping Queue currently. Thats a little over a weeks production thats bottlenecked. The most I have ever seen on a truck was 5 and that looked pretty sketchy, typically there are only 4. Not sure how many fit on the autorack but I know they are limited to only 2 levels.

Ordered my new truck on October 5th. Dealer had an allocation and GM accepted the order. Tentative build date came back 10/30-11/15. I called the dealer this morning and was told 11/18 was showing as the build date. I keep seeing guys post about receiving an email. Does GM send an email when the build starts?

You bet. I signed up for the emails through the help chat on the gm website though.
 

I received the second email (Build started) from gm last week. Subsequently, I chatted with a gm help agent and she told me there is a Tpw of 11/14. I do not have the build complete email yet though. Now that Flint has rejected the contract I’m crossing my fingers my truck makes it to the lot complete before Flint decides to strike.

Not so sure of that, Just got notified mine is on the train out of there.....So says Vin View....  a bout a week from completed to shipping. Not bad at all.

They aren’t shipped purely in order of completion though, they transport in batches based on logistics efficiency. So some people wait a lot longer. Truck I initially ordered sat in the shipping queue in Canada for several weeks. Truck we ended up buying from dealer inventory came the 2 hrs by transporter within 5 days of build completion.

8000 trucks is about a full weeks production.

Ordered a 24 HD/LT April 29th. MN Dealer said it was built in June. Still sitting in Canada!!!  They have tried to sell me other trucks. Ones that have come in and people got tired of waiting for and went else were. Usually High Country's in the $80's. Dont want a HC. Last one took 9 mo to get to dealer.

After the dealership re-ordered my '24 HC in the CORRECT color in September, it only took 8 weeks to drop it at dealership. I've been driving it for a week now!

      TCM Tuning 6L80E

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
