Would you wait for the 2024?

[steelerfeever]

Feb 3rd, 2023 I went into the local GMC and ordered a 2023 Yukon Denali XL at MSRP, the manager told me it would be a few months, no problem. Dropped by to check on the status today (two months later) and they couldn't find me in the system. I have the build paperwork and sent it over when I got home. But now I'm thinking, maybe I just wait until later this year and get the 2024? Does anyone know if there are significant changes coming next year?

2024 is supposed to be a mid cycle enhancement. Both Ford and GM keep increasing production/sales numbers every quarter. The economy is not getting any better. Also, 2025 is supposed to be a refresh for the Expedition as it is usually refreshed 1 year after the F150 refreshes.

I think it depends on how long you can wait. 2025-2026 is definitely a better time to purchase a full size SUV. Ford and GM should have adapted their production to demand by then. I'm planning on buying a 1/2 ton pickup in 2024 and holding off on a full size SUV purchase until 2026.

I would imagine the interior is going to look like the refresh Silverado/sierra and the front end is suppose to be a little different, and probably a couple new rims. That’s it I think….there’s a 2024 refresh thread with some sneak pictures on here

If I waited for everything I thought would be better later, I'd still be driving my old 2008 MDX. Not going to have too many more new vehicles. Buy what you like now, them get another one in 3-5 years if they are THAT much better....

you may not have a choice at this point. believe the 2022 orders shut down sometime in mid-May last year, so if the 2023 schedule is similar and you "weren't in the system", then doubt you'll be getting one of their 2023 allocations unless you really push...which sounds like you have a case to jump others in line if you have a build sheet from three months ago.

A 2023 accepted now would probably be delivered mid-June at the very best and sometime late summer more than likely. It's possible there will be 2024s hitting the lot before some 2023s will arrive but for sure probably won't be until around August

i'd ask when they are going to be able to order 2024s (maybe ask a couple dealers and average the responses) and then make a decision from there

me personally - I'd find a truck with the updated interior and see if I like it better over the current Yukon interior and make a decision based on that...if I didn't care, I'd lean towards still trying to get a 2023 (going to be cheaper and at least you know the timeline starts now)

 

[steelerfeever]

Much appreciated everyone... I get a new luxury SUV every 5 years like clockwork (chasing IRS deductions). Infinity QX (twice), 2018 Navigator, and now want to try the Denali (Ultimate's are hard to find). I'll take your advice and search old threads and go check out the Sierra.

2024 production is scheduled to start 11/6/23. Will be late 23, early 24 before the 24MY start hitting dealers.

Just my opinion, but I never purchase a new build, aka enhancement, the first year. I wait until the 2nd year, too many issues on first year changes. Some folks like t live on the edge, which works for me, they work through the issues so I don't have to.

Unlikely hitting the lot until q4(minimum) of this year. They have to switch over tooling during the summer months, plus their month-long shut down. It's a new model year, so there are changes too.

New model ? I thought 24's will be simply a refresh ?

+1.

If it's a mid cycle refresh with no major powertrain changes, I would be okay with it.

 

[R32driver]

That new sierra interior is pretty sweet, I’d wait and see if it ends up in the suv

I’ve seen enough spy photos of the refresh T1 platform to figure out that the new interior will more closely resemble what you see in the ‘24 GMC Canyon.

Skip forward to about the ~7min mark. The refresh will use the same steering wheel, infotainment and cluster you see in this video. I’m not sure about the HVAC controls and other buttons below the infotainment - that might be a bit different, but what you see in this video is more or less the dash layout on the ‘24 refresh.

Also, shifter will be a stalk on the RH side of the steering column - same as the Sierra EV pickup.

I believe there is a plethora of electrical changes, the reason I would wait a year. Drivetrain's for the SUV's seem to be a year or two behind the 1/2 ton pickups, so they are bearing the brunt of the mechanical issues.

If that's the case, I still like it better than 2021-2023 non-Denali dash design.

I think it would depend on how soon you want to get into a new vehicle. If you're alright with waiting even longer than you already have it might be worth it. I waited 9 months to get my 23 XL Denali. I did briefly consider cancelling that order and waiting for a 24. But not knowing what they were going to look like or offer for options I didn't know if that would be the right move. Also the 24 is going to be more expensive just because. So I stuck it out for my 23 and am so far happy with that decision. I guess we'll see when the 24 is released and we know all of the details what I think about it. But either way I would say for you it depends if you can wait and spend more $

Yes, wait towards the end of the year when the 2024's will drop. The 2024's will be part of the refresh cycle. 24-inch rims will be an option as well.

I'm moving into the camp that "newer is not necessarily better". I've owned many Suburbans. My favorite was 1990. My concern is that the vehicle will be a hybrid. Unless you're comfortable with spending $15,000 for a new battery when the vehicle is 4 to 6 years old, I would go ahead and buy what you know.

 

[StephenPT]

Found this render for the '24 refresh - the people that put together these renders are pretty talented and I've noticed on other make/models the renders they put together months ahead of time are about 90% accurate.

If thats close, it looks butt ugly to me.
