Until Super Cruise becomes available (no idea when), all Denali Ultimates will include Adaptive Cruise Control.
Nm, just looked again and you are correct. Adaptive is standard and included on all Ultimates.

Yes they have. During the last round of allocations, 81 Denali Ultimates were allocated nationwide. The 3.0L diesel and other constraints don’t apply to the Denali Ultimate. Bottom line, if your dealer gets an allocation for a Denali Ultimate then they can order it with either engine with no loss of features (minus Super Cruise).
That’s crazy, 81 ultimates I assume that’s for a single week of production? And that number will decrease every week throughout the year. I would love to see one of those in white, possibly even get one but that does not sound like an option. Basically a lottery for one those

Update from yesterday. my dealer contacted me today and said that my order is now at 1100. he has no idea how it was ever at 3000 to start with in the system but it was yesterday and today it went to 1100. so now i have truely no clue if/when/how my order will ever get done. he has 2 allocations for tahoes so NEXT thursday it will get ordered, so i MIGHT have an order accepted, unless for whatever reason i have constraints on my slightly optioned LS. talk about being dumbfounded and confused and not honestly knowing what is going on. I thought i had at least an idea of what was going to happen, but when i see folks who ordered even later than i did and they got their 22 and i had to reorder to a 23 and it was in the system at 3000 and goes back to 1100, I may as well not expect to have it before it becomes a 24, and at that point my trade in will lose even more value.... ugh. now i know how those folks who've had their vehicles lost in midlothian feel.

Ok so my weekly update. My dealer contacted me this morning shortly after opening up for the day, and said that the only option we added to our tahoe was on constraint and that it wont be available for a while and suggested to out in the order. I did and shortly after he sent a screenshot of the order being at 2000, so it is finally on its way to being built. I asked him how long it would be from order accepted to getting a tpw, and he said usually 2 weeks. So i might have a shot of having my tahoe in august.

Driver alert package. Included lane departure warning, blind side alert, backup alert. Things i wouldnt have minded having, but not needed. So i am going to end up with a base LS with 1st and 2nd row bench seats. So fully base with no options excpet 1st row bench. My dealer said hes never had anyone order a tahoe that cheap. There were a couple things i would have liked, but id have had to go up to the LT trim and it would have added 10k to price tag, so not worth the extra cost. This rig is still going to be much fancier than either my 2011 acadia it is replacing, or out 2016 canyon.

My wife and I are of the same mindset as you. There's a few things in the higher trims that would be nice - we like leather because it's easier to clean, heated seats, the 360 camera would be handy at times, but when you step up a trim level and option it out, it's suddenly another ~$10K. On top of that we really want to have the 9-seat configuration (family of seven) and that will give us extra flexibility with seating configurations - that option is only available on the base trim.

We resubmitted our Yukon XL SLE for 2023 and added the driver alert package along with max tow. I know max tow is on constraint, but this is the first time I've heard of the driver alert package being on constraint... I should probably touch base with my salesman and let him know if the hang up in getting our order accepted is removing one of those options to let us know.

Totally understand (and respect) you guys looking for the base trim. I hope you both get what you are looking for soon. I'm one that actually made that jump up to the SLT/LT model because there are a couple things I just didn't want to compromise on...leather seat (I guess I could add later) and the 360 degree camera. This will be a big vehicle and I want that camera for the few times my wife will be driving it. So yeah, $10K is a lot of money, but we all have to decide what is important to us. Besides, if this doesn't work out and I can't get what I want, I'll probably look at one of the competitors. Or if I really want to get crazy (and save $25K), I might swallow my pride and get something like the Kia Carnival :)

Correct, those are standard on Denali, so that is why they can't be optioned.





Air ride requires max tow be optioned AND any of the 22" wheels to be optioned.

I'm 99% sure the rear camera mirror is NOT available standalone.

Otherwise, looks like a pretty normal build to me. And dealers have pricing now. My exact 2022 build I ordered in March of this year went up approximately $4k as a 2023 build.
My loaded XL Denali in March was 86 now my 2023 order is 89 without the packages since premium, advanced tech cannot be ordered now.

Did anyone get information as to Ultimate trim allocations? Were any given out yet?
I have an order in for a 23 Denali ultimate- TPW of 7/18, so this week. Currently waiting to hear from the dealership on whether or not it's been built

Wow that's great.....2023 production just started this week so looks like you get one of the very first 2023 builds?

I guess so! I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing- I'm just excited to be moving along in the process. Been waiting since December. My original order was a 22 Denali with the ultimate/reserve package. Then with all of the constraints I had to remove the package and add what I could, yet it still never was picked up for production. Dealership called end of May/early June to switch my order over to a 23 which is when I asked about the new Denali ultimate trim & a few weeks later they received an allocation for one. Still at 3400 as of this afternoon so I'm hoping it actually gets built this week!

At least your in the process to get built. Usually at 3400 there is a TPW so you could ask for that if you dont have it. Glad yours is getting built. Mine is maybe gonna be built in a few weeks.

Nice, what color did u go with? And I wouldn’t be worried if yours is one of first built, nothing has really changed other than the ultimate being exterior cosmetic and interior leather changes. Nothing electronic or structure change. I got a refresh Silverado high country on the third build week and only issue I’ve had is A blinker sensor needed changed

The 360 camera system is worth every penny in these big vehicles for parking and getting into a garage etc. I don't think my wife would drive it without it.

My weekly update will be last one til after it gets built. My dealer texted me a few minutes ago and said i have a TPW of 8/1. Which i was surprised as he said its usually 2 weeks minimum for a TPW after putting order into system with event code of 2000. So i am now hoping that i will get my new ride in time for labor day weekend.

GMC chat says I'm at 2030, dealer says I'm still at 1100. The hilari-sad adventure of ordering a new GM vehicle continues.
