Thanks for the codes.

Interesting how GM is essentially forcing buyers to get the power retractable assist steps. I mean who's not going to want the HUD & Adaptive Cruise Control?

That's the boat we're in as well. While it doesn't say one MUST get the package to gets its parts I would assume that to be the case.

1100 since March 15???!!!

FIND ANOTHER DEALER MAN!


Small town Iowa and the owner of the dealership is a friend of mine. I know everyone in the garage by first name and have beers with them on the weekends. While it has been a frustrating journey for all of us, I am not in a huge hurry as I am driving my 2013 Denali XL. I could have bought one off a lot 45 miles away, but the owner ordered my rig on a handshake deal. Being a transplant from Chicago, that means a lot to me. More than shiny new wheels.

The way the allocation system worked out really punished the small guys. On the other hand even if by accident, it may have protected the small guys getting the bugs out.

So with the power roof and rear seat entertainment package standard - how has the price changed?

I notice on the GMC build your own the options have not changed yet, but where the price was displayed on top it says "See your dealer"

The 6 speed transmission is listed as having tow/haul mode with tap shifting. The 8 speed doesn't have any modifiers after it. I hate to assume anything about these things but I hope/expect that it will also have a tow/haul mode. Maybe it's smart enough that it doesn't need one but I still like having a little extra control over things.

I think you're right. Although when trying to build it online, the sunroof and rear seat entertainment come up as $0.

Hopefully the website will update itself completely in the next day or so.

I think it comes up as $0 because you cannot add it individually, you have to add it as part of a package.

Yes I think that's where the open road package comes into play. In any case I can't wait to order one. Soon.

Is OK with me because the only different between the update and me truck is 2 transmission gears lol and happy with my truck.

:)


Beautiful Denali in your signature. Question. Are those the 20" chrome wheels from GMC? Did you paint the brake calipers red or did it come like that. Thank you.

Yes wheels are 20 original Gm , I order like that because we are 7 plus equipment and 22 do not help in this case.
Calipers was custom order from MGP Calipercovers.com

Looks good. Sweet ride. I'm getting ready to order mine and I am also sticking with the 20" chrome wheels.

2015 Yukons being discounted

Looks like in the wake of 2015i models arriving next month, dealers around here are discounting existing inventory of 2015 models. The average discount I see is roughly $3000 off. Are others noticing the trend? There are FINALLY some local dealers around here that are quietly admitting the reason for the discounts (surprisingly).

Satish,
I am sure once someone drives an 8 speed coupled to 460 lbs, the 2015 will feel like something much less refined.

Do you know if the 22" wheels are still on hold?
