What is everyone seeing for pricing on 2024 Silverado 2500's when ordering? Nothing on the lot for the options I want. Spoke with two dealerships and both won't budge off MRSP. Curious if that is the norm or if its a Colorado thing.

I get GM pricing so its already set. 

Back in the day we got 18% off an order and 15 off an in stock truck. Those days are long gone. 

I get GM Supplier pricing. Was just wondering if there was wiggle room on the price like some of the GMC dealerships have been doing.

Yes a couple of them discount and a couple of them add 5/7k to msrp

I get GM employee pricing so price is set. Was about 11% off my particular truck. 
 

Most dealers around me advertise some discounts off MSRP of varying amounts, but nothing close to employee pricing.

How are those Lasfit backup and plate lights working for you ?  I have been considering them. 

They are great! I have no complaints whatsoever...I used them on my 1500 also and had 3 years no issues.

Ordered a 2024 GMC Sierra 2500HD AT4 today. 6.6L Gas, Sterling Metallic, AT4 Preferred Package, Snow Plow Prep/Camper Package, Gooseneck/5th Wheel Prep Package, 700 CCA Aux Battery.

 

I won’t be plowing or using the gooseneck/5th wheel hitch but figured for less $1000 now it will be easier to sell than a 2500HD without any options. Will add running boards and an ARE cap when it arrives. 
 

Sales guy said it will take 4 months. We’ll see! Reason I ordered was so I can get through hunting season, most of winter and get what I want. 
 

Have had a few older 2500 trucks in the past and mostly 1500 trucks since then. Do not need a 2500HD to tow my boat but like the lack of cylinder deactivation and stop/start.

Same here. 1500 would have fit my needs okay but I just couldn’t justify the half ton gimmicks and insane prices. All I saw were luxury trucks for a lot more than I paid for my base 2500. I don’t regret my decision at all. Been over a year now with it. I have the plow camper 5er pkgs too so it’s not a stripper model I guess.

Nice. I built 2023 and 2024 1500 AT4s with 6.2L and 6.5’ bed and it’s only $2k or so difference than the 2500HD AT4 I ordered and they have DFM and start/stop. Can always press the start/stop button every time you start the truck but can’t change the DFM, at least not conveniently.

Good Luck. I ordered my 2024  in early June and was told the same thing. I stopped in to see how things were going last month and Chevy had not even given an allocation yet.

That sux. Hopefully it goes through. 
 

I talked to one of my cousins the other day who was an exec at GM about getting a friends and family discount. Then called the sales guy and they won’t honor it. My cousin told me she can make a phone call to push my order through. I’m going to take her up on that if it looks like it’s going to take forever.

Got back from vacation today to see a text from the dealer. my truck is officially in transit and scheduled to arrive in Tampa Florida on 10/28. Tentatively planning on picking it up the weekend of November 3rd. overall a great end to a great vacation with family and friends.

 Never heard of a dealer not honoring gm discount. I've used it on all my new  gm vehicles at various dealers.

Most in my area do. Then there’s the one in my area that does…but also tries to make up the difference by offering several thousand less on trade in value.   
 

But I also live in Big 3 country. Ive read about dealers not taking gms especially in the past couple years but I don’t think dealers in this area could do that without losing a lot of customer base.

    • Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/        
    • UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update  
    • GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.  
    • Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.
    • I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
