Not me

"Built" 5/23 (now I know why Chevy says produced, because that doesn't mean fully built) - really means sent to Midhell
Window sticker produced 08/19 - sitting in Arlington now (after bugging the Chevy chat - sooner or later one of them gives you details)
No timetable on delivery

But I did save 100% on my car insurance by not having anything to insure.
Does yours show up on the inventory website as in transit?

Is there any way GM can contact buyers when vehicles leave Midlothian or is it strictly up to the dealer to update you?

Update on this, as of today, truck is in Ohio (mid-MI final destination) and VINView ETA updated to 10/8. Still no window sticker or signs of the truck on GMC.com/dealer inventory.

This weeks update: went into the dealer today to get trade value locked in and start paperwork. Truck is now unloaded at the rail yard about 45 minutes from the dealer. Still no window sticker or signs of it on GMC/dealer sites.

BTW, they offered us $2K less than MSRP on our '21 SLT Diesel with 20K miles on it...not bad considering a softening market.

Build date was 9/26. It's at the dealership now.

Helps living close I'd guess.

ETA is Monday to the dealer, window sticker appeared this morning, but it isn't listed on any sites. Looks like the power steps that were on the build got dropped at some point, they aren't on the truck according to the window sticker. Also credit for lumbar and steering lock, but no retrofit for parking sensors or heated steering wheel, so that's nice.

Ordered February, accepted March, built 4/13.

Question

My 2nd order (original was a 22 still lost in Midlothian since april )was built this week, and the dealer told me it was invoiced to the dealership yesterday. Does that mean it's fully built, and ready to ship?

Just curious, how are you managing multiple orders? Different dealers?

Correct. I've been waiting since February for my 2022, got tired of waiting and don't want to pay full price for a vehicle that's been sitting for so long.

Made a second with a bigger dealer and was fully transparent with her. She's been great

Would I be crazy to tell my dealer to keep my order, and put me on the list for a unit that has Super Cruise? Does anyone else here think that SC is a feature worth waiting potentially many more months to get?

There was talk about something called Ultra Cruise, coming down the pipes here in the next few years, more like the self driving of a Tesla. My biggest concern is missing out on something cool, or having something break then waiting forever to get replacement chips. the FOMO is real bad lol.

I don't do a whole lot of highway driving so it doesn't bother me not to have it. On top of that, I trade in my vehicles every 1-2 years so whatever I get next will have something even better than SC.

Yes, that is usually a good sign that it will ship shortly.

I did my second order through the same dealer, they were understanding of the situation as they saw trucks built after mine trickle in. As of right now, the '23 hasn't been picked up for production yet (duramax constraint, I imagine).

Mine doesn't have a window sticker (nor showing up on websites), but is on its way in VinView on the rails with an ETA of 10/15. My dealer (And others on the forum) have confirmed trucks showing up at the dealer with no notice, still showing an old event code in the system.
Wondering if you have any updates. Mine is showing up on website but no window sticker. It’s showing it’s on the rail with an ETA of 10/15 as well.

They offered $2k less than MSRP?! I have a 21 Premier fully loaded before the chip shortage with 6K miles and my trade value decreased $6k since original quoted trade value on 6/26.

Yeah, they originally offered $72K back in March (when it had 8K miles), now down to $65K.

As you can see I'm new here, looks like a nice forum. My 22 Yukon SLT was built in April and It was just delivered to dealer last week. It was shipped with later retrofit of heated and ventilated seats and front and rear park assist. From sitting so long it needed a complete detail, the paint had a lot crap on it. Dealer says the retrofit is treated like a recall now as GM will send a letter letting you know your parts are ready for it. I know pics or it didn't happen, I'm working on.
