I have purchased custom order cars before from high volume dealers that provide substantial discounts.  Right now I can custom order a Ram for about 4% less than invoice plus any factory incentives available at the time.  

 

Are there any similar dealers for GMC and Chevrolet trucks?  Preferably in northern California.

I custom ordered my Trail Boss back in 2021 and got whatever GM was offering at the time it came in. I also had supplier discount as well. There's usually disclaimers on big discounts that they can only be used on in stock vehicles on dealer lots.

I'll second the suggestion on Laura.  It's a ways from you in Cali but they'll ship it to you.  I just bought my second truck from them, a 24 Sierra SLT with Duramax and Max Tow.  Very painless online and phone purchase.  Well worth driving the nearly 5 hours each way to pick it up.  I'm not sure about ordering, but if you're interested in GMC, their inventory is so large they probably have something in stock or will soon that fits what you want or pretty damn close.

I have to wonder...  Is GM discounting heavy on custom orders too?

 

Because all across the US they are giving $10 to $15k off MSRP (maybe more) to get trucks off the lot.

I would doubt they would give a "substantial" discount only because they KNOW you really want the truck you are ordering. Why give a discount on something the customer really wants? As long as it's not an off the wall order they will just sell it to the next guy that comes in. If you don't buy it when it shows up.

Not sure how or why any custom order would incentivize GM to give a reduced msrp to the customer. High Volume dealers want to move stuff sitting on their lot, not have you place an order. A place like a Laurel might actually have something close to what you want as there is no special ordering options with these trucks today other than maybe a handful of not so great colors reserved for like dpw's and such.

The dealer would have to offer a discount but you get whatever incentives are in place when the vehicle is delivered (not when ordered). I ordered a 24 with dealer allocation on April 15th, TPW was July 15 and it was built July 20th, delivered Aug 14th.  Picked up Aug. 27.  Delay from the 14th to 27th was waiting for the optional wheels and tires which took another 2 weeks to arrive.

 

My dealer gives supplier discount to ordered vehicles.  I compared to Laura and Laura was about $2000 less BUT I could not go down there (675 mi), the Laura cost to deliver was $1500.
