K2500 Avalanche Delivery Dates??


Recommended Posts

Posted

Currently awaiting a ordered K2500 Avalanche up here in Canada.  Has anyone heard when we will be seeing them at dealerships??  

My dealer has no idea, and GM Canada Customer Service spent a week looking into it and came back with a helpfull 'can't find any information other than they are being or will be produced'.  

Anyone heard anything better??

Thanks

Didn't know they were doing a K2500 Avalanche...

Wish Zane was here to confirm/deny this rumor, he has the connections to find out.

Have you seen any documentation of such a thing?

Yes, one is coming, I just don't know when.  I received a information kit from Chevy (including a 1/64 scale Av) and it had information on the 2500 and the North Face addition.  I asked my dealer and he did not have dates, but the North Face version is already available ( I have seen 2).

Hey 76BBSub

Yes there is one comming.  Info is on both the Canadian and US Chevrolet sites, if your after details.  In brief it will be 8.1 ltr, and when equipped with 4.10's, will have a 12k lb tow rating.  I have one on order, but no one can tell me when I may see it.......

And I can be darn impatient, so this is driving me nuts!!

How'd you get a 1/64th scale model? Sure would like one. What color AV did you order. I can't decide on white or Silver. Definately like the Graphite Leather. I sure wish the cladding would come color matched. I'm going to wait a bit to see if the General makes and changes before signing up!

The matchbox type scale model was sent out to some people in the US that had registerered for info on the Avalanche.  If you are really interested in one, I have seen a few on Ebay for under ?.00.

I am going K2500, Light Pewter, nuetral interior.  The white is nice, but the Light Pewter (as my Suburban is) hides the dirt and dings really well, and I have better things to do than constantly wash my truck!! ;-)

    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
    • Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."    
    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
