What's the word on lead time for ordering a 2500? Ill be ready to trade my truck in within 6 months or so. If its a 6 week wait Ill hold off a bit. If its 6 months + ill start the process. 

Id love to buy off the lot but I dont want a work truck and I dont want a Denali/AT4 and thats all that seems to wind up on the lots around here. Hoping interest rates creep back down a little....if they're over 6% when the truck comes In ill just drive my paid for rig into the ground lol

A lot can and will change in 6 months. Currently deliveries are running about 90 days BUT thats if your dealer actually has an allocation and is honest with you about that. Some dealers will take your money even though they dont have allocation and then sandbag you on the order. There may also be some constraints on certain options so you will need a dealer that will honestly communicate those issues. The supply chain is still struggling. 

Having said all that if the UAW strikes then production will be severely curtailed and ALL bets are off.

From what I'm reading and what I've heard the UAW is probably going on strike in about 2 weeks. I  was going to order a 3500 however with the impending strike I went out this last weekend and found something very similar locally to what I wanted and I bought it because it's going to be a while before orders are taken and fulfilled because of the backlog caused by the strike. My opinion hopefully it's wrong but that's the reasoning behind my buying one this last weekend.

Im sort of hoping to trip over a 6spd truck getting traded for a 10spd truck...but Im too picky lol.

Want a 6.6 gas SLE 2500, double cab, std bed, white or titanium rush.

Double cabs are unicorns these days it seems.  Guy next to me at a campsite in NM a couple weeks ago had a 2024 SLE double cab 6.6 gasser.  I was shocked.

You're both very correct. It's nuts.

There's a double cab in the right color at my preferred dealer actually but it has 4k worth of stuff on it I dont want. That plus interest rates has me turned off. Id be over paying twice. Im sure ill end up having to order to get my exact truck. Just trying to time it right

Ordered 7/10, dealer already had an available allocation and there were no applicable constraints.


TPW was supposed to be this week (8/28), but friends at GM looked into our order and Oshawa is running about a month behind those projected targets. (Supposedly Flint too, though not by as much right now)

 

we were lucky enough to have friends who could move up the build to last week, but we ended up finding something on the lot we liked slightly better anyways and went that route. Even with that move it didn’t get built last week due to some delays again.

 

All that to say even with an allocation, supply chain issues still creep up here and there, so with a pending strike it’s probably going to be a decent wait.

GM has 1.9% for 60/m

Chevy has 3.9% for 60/m

 

They have actually had it for awhile.....I took 3.9% back in April on a 2500 HD

 

I couldnt touch that rate from either of my CU's

 

Seen a few dbl cabs on west coast but idk where you are...they arent that rare out here.....

I'd be curious who he had to kiss to get it.

I've had a ltz double cab gasser on order since the first week of Feb.

Finally got an allocation in mid June. But still don't have a build date.

 

With the insane list of demands the UAW has out there, a strike is pretty much guaranteed.

So, I figure the chance of seeing the truck this year is slim.

From local dealer had it but only thru August  which is over..... maybe just a promo they were doing

 

Yeah I see 3.9 on 23 GMC....4.49 on denal/at4....

 

I dont know how they do it but I was able to get 2.49% on a 22 2500 model when the offer was for 1500s only on website.....they didn't want me using my bank I guess which was 3%

 

Some dealers would advertise different finance offers than others

 

My Bad man! Your right though I dont see it for 24s thru GM website...

 

Only Chevy is for 24s....September offers are coming though

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
