As you know, it is possible to order the Ultimate with some optional equipment. I was referring to your exact configuration. As I said earlier, there are really only two possibilities...either your dealer doesn't really have an allocation for a Yukon Ultimate (even though they are telling you...
I think we'd need more information. Plenty of Ultimates have been built. If your dealer truly had an allocation to spend and nothing is on constraint your order should have have been accepted. But you mention Super Cruise and from what I understood that wasn't available at the start of...
Sorry you have to deal with this. Do you see the option on the 2023 order build sheet or the 2022 build sheet? Switching the order from a 2022 to a 2023 is a manual process, the order has to be re-submitted as a 2023. I would suspect the option was either missed or it was on constraint and...
Yes I realize what 1100 status means. Please note that this was the Inventory manager I was talking to, not some green salesman. He was looking right at the constraint list and said it had no mention of ACC being on constraint. I specifically asked him. He mentioned the other constraints I...
Maybe you need to try some other dealers if they aren't getting any allocations. The dealer I talked to said he got 5 Yukon XL orders last week and 2 this week. Of the 5 I think he ordered 4 Denali's and 1 AT4. These are all for dealer stock, not customer orders. I'm not sure what exactly...
So I just talked to an Inventory manager yesterday. Sounds like things haven't changed much:
On the SLT front, SLT Luxury package is still on constraint. It is saying 0% until November.
Max Tow is 0% until November.
LM2 diesel is still at 10% constraint through the remainder of the 2023 model...
I just spoke to an inventory manager yesterday. He had no trouble adding Adaptive Cruise (a $500 option) on a base Denali. In fact, it was pre-checked in the ordering system and he had to double check that in fact it had a $500 charge. The order was accepted at 1100 status and he has no...
Makes complete sense...thanks. The only thing I would add is that while they will save the financing/interest of flooring a "sold" order, they lose the freedom to mark up the price above MSRP. Most people don't order a vehicle, wait 6 months and agree to pay above MSRP (but maybe some do)...
I've gotten conflicting info regarding "sold" orders. One dealer wanted a $1000 non-refundable deposit for a "sold" order because if I don't take delivery within 72 hours of showing up, they lose an allocation. Another dealer told me they could put in a "sold" order for a $500 refundable...
I guess it depends if he is talking about "Employee pricing" or "Supplier Pricing"....big difference. Employee pricing may well be that 9.1% you are referring to but Supplier pricing is only like 5%. You can get the exact number at the link I pasted.
Assuming you are talking about GM Supplier Pricing, you can price out a config here: https://www.gmsupplierdiscount.com/.
I believe a few people on the forum have been able to use it, but most dealers won't accept it. I have a couple dealers who have said they will honor it but I'm still...
My situation is probably not much different from yours and I have been planning on the diesel for a long time. I'd be interested in hearing from other people on this forum and getting their opinion to this question (although maybe it really belongs in the diesel sub-forum).
Agreed on the inventory points. There is a local dealer here that sells both GMC and Chevy. They have a total of 64 new Tahoe/Suburban/Yukon/Yukon XL's on their website including 2022 and 2023 model years. Many of them are in transit and probably spoken for, but I certainly don't remember...
Absolutely, agree with everything you've said. The dealer gets to decide how to "spend" that allocation. They can pick any order they want to actually move forward (subject to constraints of course). And yes, I have no guarantee that they didn't push any orders in front of me over those last...
Thanks for that link, definitely some good info there! But honestly I don't see anything in those posts that says that custom orders don't take away from their total allocation. Every dealer I've talked to said the same thing...they are given a certain number of vehicles to order for a given...
Yep, agreed. Evidently when they put in an order, it takes away from their allocations. So they don't really have any incentive to agree to a "skinny deal" on a custom order when they can charge over MSRP on a in-stock unit. An order shouldn't take away from their normal allocation so it...
That's good info! It shows that it is possible for things to move quickly. I agree that allocations are key. But I would add that the other part of the equation is whether you have any options on constraints. There is a small local dealer here who has very good pricing but seems like they...
I posted this in another thread: https://www.musclecarsandtrucks.com/gm-duramax-lz0-diesel-improvements-2023-chevrolet-silverado-gmc-sierra-1500-lm2/
If you read though it they talk about some improvements that they also included in the LM2:
Additionally, there was an issue with the previous...
Just to answer my own question, I guess there is some interesting info out there on the new LZ0 diesel. Some of you may have already seen this, but there is a small HP/torque increase along with some other design changes...
Looks great! It's kind of funny, I have been planning on the SLT model but lately been thinking I might try for a base Denali as there will be fewer stars that need to line up. When my wife first saw the Denali grille, she didn't like it and thought it looked a little too busy. But then I...
You are right, it is odd. I wouldn't think "KSG" would show up if you didn't have it. Plus the Order Guide says "Beginning with start of production, vehicles will be forced to include (07Z) Not Equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control and Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking, which removes...
As far as I know Adaptive Cruise is not standard on the base Denali. It is a $500 stand-alone option. So maybe that option either got accidentally removed or it was on constraint when your order was placed? The Order guide does say that Adaptive Cruise was not available at the start of...
Here is an update...just talked to the Inventory manager at one of the local dealers. This is the only dealer I've come across that lets you talk directly to their Inventory manager. This is what he told me regarding my Yukon XL SLT build with Duramax, SLT Luxury package and Max tow:
Duramax...
