It all depends on your budget. Personally, I do not see anything worth spending the extra $$ on the new body style. Unless they fixed the infamous intermediate steering shaft, of course.

Never buy the first year of a model--you are bound to be the unpaid debugger of any technical or design issues. The advantage is that at resell you could do better with the newer model, however I do not think you will see $4-6,k difference unless you trade it in the first two years.

If you are going to keep the truck for several years (or will be putting a lot of miles on it), then get the classic. If you are going to trade it within 4 years or less, get the 900.

 

The trade in value on the 900 should be lots better if you trade within 4 years. Past that, it won't make that big of a difference between the two trucks.

Hey thanks for your input , I am from Cali and am pretty much a city guy (poser) with a truck . I have nothing to tow and never will . So what I have decided to do was have one built on the computer at the dealership. Will they stick to MSRP or can they deal a bit ? I would assume that they will stick to MSRP because I am not buying from their lot . I am going with the 6.0 in half ton rather than going 6.0 HD . I figure the weight of the HD would kill me as far as gas goes . Thanks again .

 

 

I have since sold my truck in the sig and replaced it with a WS.6 Trans Am . It kills me when I see trucks flossing on me because I remember when I used to stunt ! lol

I pondered the same thing as I was debating waiting for the new '07. The extra $ (several thousand $) wasn't worth the new model IMO and I ended up with an '06 with a nice big rebate and deep discounting.

 

Also I too never buy the first year of any vehicle. If you do, expect lots of recall notices in your mailbox.

Some Dodge Mega cab owners have terrible problems with the A/C system being woefully inadequate.

 

When Nissan Titans first came out, Nissan was replacing brake rotors on these trucks after several thousand miles due to persistent warpage.

You should be able to do much better than MSRP. You should be able to easily get them to quoted invoice (check Edmonds) plus $1000. If you're persistent you might be able to get them down to invoice or below. Don't let them give you a sob storry about the rebates, they aren't coming out of their pockets. They really should be working to move the leftover '06 models and the '07 classic models.

Oops, didn't see that you wanted to have one ordered. Look at it this way, even if they had to order one for you or search around and you got them to "invoice" they are still making money. You may not get quite as good of a deal, but you certainly should be able to do much better than MSRP.

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      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.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      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.
