Software’s place in a mechanical world
Just saw this interview with Jim Farley (Ford CEO), and he makes some very telling comments about modern cars, and in particular, EVs. Paging Ms Mary, are you listening?

Vehicle prep pre-delivery question
Just curious: some folks have noted issues with electronics that are fixed with updates and so on. As a part of pre-delivery stuff, do some dealers make sure software is up-to-date and apply any fixes before delivery, or do they just wash them and have you pick the vehicles up? It seems like...- Steebu

Customer asked to pay in full before taking delivery
tldr; man put a $500 deposit on a Yukon, then 2 weeks before the stated delivery date he was asked to pay for the Yukon in full or lose it. Even if it *is* legal and a practice approved by GM, it just sounds so scummy...- Steebu

I did do a good bit of research but wanted to get this forum's input since we'll have some good tribal knowledge here regarding this specific engine. 1. Does "any" diesel work in the D-max?

2023 Yukon - when will we know?
I know, I know ... ... this video just popped up in my feed: Biggest notes: 12" all-digital display dash, updated infotainment, power sliding console standard on Denali, and Redwood Metallic color available.

No Auto Start/Stop on 6.2 Yukons?
Hey all, I saw something interesting when configuring a 22 Yukon on the GMC website (maybe this is old news) - when you expand the "Mechanical" section I found this: Does this mean any new 5.3s and 6.2s do not have Auto Start/Stop by default for Yukons? I'm guessing this means the DM does...- Steebu
