Trying to buy a 2024/2025 Sierra 1500 Evaluation in Downpour Blue. When searching online there isn’t one within 1,000 miles. I’m in CT. Was considering ordering one but was curious how long it’s taking, everyone who ordered, to get there’s?

I ordered a 2025 GMC about a month ago. It initially had a build week of April 14th which slid to week of April 28th. You need to make sure your dealership has allocation available before you order. That means you need to speak to the Sales Manager or General Manager. This tariff uncertainty is probably not helping right now.

Agree the tariff thing could make it more difficult and more expensive.  The Downpour Metallic Blue is nice, but is it worth it to order one only to find out it's an extra 5-15% more expensive when it comes in?  The problem now is you don't know what the price will be in a month or two.  I was back and forth between the blue and red and chose red and love it.

The tariffs won't affect my order. Price protected upon acceptance. But, I was just told my build date slid another week to May. Oh well....

GM makes the 1500's in Ft Wayne so tariffs will have little effect if any. The just announced to bumping up production at Ft Wayne.   Typically it takes about 4 months from order to delivery IF the dealer has allocation.  Not all dealers have but they will not tell you anything. They will take your order and you'll be on a list and may never see it.   Other things can affect build time such as constraints.  A Constraint is a limit placed on specific build configurations.

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
