HDMI has been around for almost 20 years already. Yes the spec has been updated and there are certain features like eARC that require a newer standard than from years ago. But most HDMI devices are backwards compatible at least when it comes to basic features. And just playing HD video from a newer device shouldn't be an issue even 10 or 15 years from now. And I doubt I'll still have the vehicle beyond that timeframe. There's a lot more about the vehicle I would worry about becoming obsolete before the HDMI ports...

That’s exactly how I ordered, standard 22” for nothing additional, and will by 22” aftermarket.
Also ordered on the same day as you, but I’m holding out for the 6.2 and Liz package. Will probably end up waiting a couple more months.
Enjoy your new ride.
Agree the implementation could have been better with ports inside console, etc. But the Roku Express 4K+ gives me all the options I care to have, including Airplay.. It's not on the floor to get stepped on-- it's mounted to the side of the console. I ordered a short cable to power it so no cables are hanging. My young kids can't kick the ports on the center console from the captain's chairs. When they are older and can actually kick them, I hope they know better...
Could the RSE have been done better? No doubt. But I'm still glad we got one with it, at least at this point. Everyone should be aware of the design and it's pros and cons and make their decision accordingly.
Yes, pure value for what you get-- two 12.6" blank TV screens for $2,000 is definitely more than it should be. But you can pretty much make that same argument about the vehicles themselves and most of the options being overpriced. At $71k with no screens, or $73k with screens, is it really much of a difference? It depends what you want in the vehicle.. to each their own, indeed.

Fair point regarding backward compatibility of HDMI. However, what about if HDMI is replaced by something better? Sure, this isn’t a home theater but the same applies. Just like those vans with TVs that only had composite video inputs… you either limit yourself to significantly outdated devices or you upgraded the entire system.
Anything is possible but don't see it happening for a long, long time. And even when something new comes, it will be a long transition to the next technology where HDMI is still supported for many years.
Unsolicited update from my dealer in Dallas today:
"Just touching base. I was hoping GM would release more information about diesel engine production today but so far they have not. I wanted you to know that I have not forgotten to update you and will send over any information when I receive it. At this point it might be another week or two before they update things."

Ours is here!
Two weeks before Christmas it went from waiting to built and awaiting transport.
Yesterday the salesguy called and said it was there. Cleared our schedule and we are picking it up now.

Looks good! That’s the same color we ordered. Did you get the slate walnut interior? Enjoy your Yukon!
Looks sweet, enjoy it!
Same wheels i ordered
Yep. Slate Walnut. The GMC website doesn’t do it justice. Much nicer (to us) than the black we had before.
Thanks! We are so far.
We actually ordered different wheels on accident but those were on back order so they substituted these. Worked out for us.
Were you waiting on Max Tow? That’s what got ours.
Love it, enjoy.
Very nice, congratulations!
Hi All- new to the forums, and trying to purchase a Tahoe '22 Premier 6.2, but have a couple questions regarding the ordering process. I've been following along in this thread and read through every post, but confused about the following:
1) Went to a larger dealer in my area that typically has larger inventory and more allocations for vehicles than other chevy dealers.
2) I submitted the following build (https://bit.ly/3rf0whN) to the dealer in person and received a PO for the build - placed a $1k deposit. Dealer is not charging any premium, aside from $750 over msrp.
3) Because of this thread, I recently found out that the Tahoe Premier has a constraint until around March 22. So I called the dealership and they weren't aware until I brought it up with them. They stated, however, that the order 'never went through' because of that constraint.
My question: Are orders still "submitted" to Chevy, and just not accepted because the constraint? Or, did the dealer not "submit the order to Chevy" and just now found out about the constraint?
What I would like to do is obtain an order number from them so I can check up with Chevy on my own - directly - instead of hassling the dealership, but also want to ensure an order is submitted so that it could eventually be accepted when the constraint is lifted. Also, on that note, I think I recently read that while heated steering wheels (and for some vehicles heated/cooled seats) have been deleted for now, Chevy is planning a retrofit for those whereas they were previously not planning. Can anyone confirm that accuracy?
Any thoughts? - Thanks in advance.

My wife's Yukon has a dummy blank on the steering wheel in place of the steering wheel heating button. They told us when the parts are available we will get a letter saying to schedule a service appointment to have it installed for free.

Was at my local GMC dealer today attempting to order a 22 Denali XL. What he showed me that they would accept was no second row buckets and no front center console...?

Ugh ... so no power front console ... no buckets in 2nd row.
