Did GM stop taking orders for 2021 Yukons?

I find it crazy that those of us you purchased the first units, actually got a "so-called good" deal..... Last July, I cringed from getting a $3,583 discount off MSRP. Crazy times..

I just wonder what used models could get in this market....Especially with all options, like trailer tow package..
I have a 2018 Tahoe LT, loaded, dvd, sunroof, trailering, 20” wheels. 37,000 miles, KBB says $50k!

I stopped by my local GMC dealer today to test drive a 3.0 Duramax in a Sierra Denali to get a feel for the engine. I then asked about ordering a Yukon Denali with the max tow package and they wouldn't even take an order for one at this time with that package. They said most of the inventory coming in is already sold.

What-did you think of the test drive?

I liked the 3.0 Duramax. Very peppy from a light. Doesn't seem to pull as strong at higher speeds, say from 50 to 80. But I'm looking at it for towing a camper and I think the lower rpm torque would be great. While I am looking for a Yukon Denali, the Sierra Denali rode better than my current 16 Yukon.

Because we are only one ransomware or Suez canal blocking from 4$ + Fuel, I think the Dmax is the only way to go on this large barge, and honestly I can't find a ton of naysayers out there on many forums about it. Sure there are a few problems here and there that people blow way out of proportion, but by and large most LM2 DMax conversations are positive.....

Yeah, I would like to drive the Dmax. I think they come with a 5yr 100k warranty, whereas the other drivetrains come with 5yr 60k warrranty..

These prices are crazy. Just wait for fuel to be 5-6 a gallon and they won’t be selling many. Seen it before.

First post on this forum.

Picked up my 21 Denali XL Premium - Max Tow - 4X4 - Active Air last thursday.

ORDERED JANUARY 14th.

Got friendly with the GM of the dealership - so I saw the constraint option codes and expected dates. GM wouldn't even ACCEPT my order until the beginning of Feb. Main holdup was Max-Tow (also required for adaptive/active air ride - so they probably share the same modules).

In Jan - constraint said: Feb. Beginning of Feb 3-4 weeks. 3rd week of Feb - JULY/AUGUST. Then Mid-March - April 14th production week, born on 4/15 - with a 4/30 delivery date that ended up being 5/6.

Straight MSRP - which is good considering some dealers down here are getting +5K for Denali. They DID NOT PRICE PROTECT ME from order date (MSRP went UP + $900).

There's NO WIGGLE ROOM HERE - you don't want to pay their price - there are 10 people waiting for one that will gladly pay EVEN MORE to get one.

EVERY YUKON coming into my dealership in Pompano Beach is already sold - with buyers waiting 3-4 months from order date.

If you have one on order - and your dealership isn't jacking you around - it will come in eventually.

I'm friends with the body shop manager for 40 years of my boo boos he's been fixing, the owners son is a friend, and his dad the owner knows me (not enough to get any deals, but a STRAIGHT DEAL is better than some of the crap I've seen at some dealerships when I was shopping).

So annoyed - I put my name on an incoming unit that was “being built”, GM eliminated a handful of orders including mine, was 3000 status originally then downgraded to 2030, they called the GM regional manager and they “screwed up” and would expedite an order tomorrow....so frustrated...have an Escalade order and a Yukon order...guess I’ll end up getting the first car that’s done...
