Finally ordered!

Cheekster96 · August 24, 2021

Howdy gang! After months and months of waiting, thinking I was going to be able to order a '21 ending up finding a dealer who would work with me and do some work!

Ordered a '22 LT trim 2500HD crew cab. Order accepted to GM. No HD radio or USB ports (OBDGenie will fix this).

Red Hot color, Z71 Sports Edition with the 20" black wheels (thought about the 18's but they come with mud terrains and the 20's have all terrains), Conv Package 1 AND 2, leather bucket seats, auto track 4wd and the "normal" tailgate.

Excitement level up one notch.

I will keep everyone posted.

Hey Cheekster congrats on the order! Now starts the incessant following up to check status and progress! Did you have to work hard to find a dealer with an allocation they could use for your order? I have had an order ready to go for a '22 GMC 3500HD SLE since mid June and it's still not picked up. I am starting to think I am getting played. I don't want to miss the chance to sell my current truck at the high used truck prices because I need that profit to put down on the new one!

Went to two dealers. Closest one is 45 minutes from me, the one I am working with is about 3.5 hours away from me.

yeah thats the worry. Used pricing is isnt peaking anymore. Have sold/traded 3 cars since May, and can tell you the market was not as hot in AUG.

Me personally I think by the time we hit OCT it will be over

I have a 2015 2500HD Chevy LT with 35k miles in excellent condition. Was thinking to sell it at the higher prices to get $$ to put down on a new one. With my order (that was ready mid June) not being picked up yet due to no allocation at my dealer I'm not sure my timing is going to work out. Even if it's picked up now I won't see a new truck for a few months at least. I had a good plan but it is not coming together as planned. Worst case I keep my current truck which wont be the end of the world I guess.
