    ‘22 SLT delivered - initial thoughts….

    I only have a flip phone for emergencies more or less so if I don't subscribe to Onstar I wouldn't have navigation?

    Lets talk MSRP

    I've decided to wait until rebates are back up to $3500 and paperwork only cost $75. Yes, it is unreasonable but that is the way I roll.

    They removed the tow hooks just when they need them most.

    Brand new 2021 Denali shuddering

    Dealerships are known for putting the cheapest gas they can find in your new car. Next fill up use a top tier brand of gasoline and run it like you mean it.

    Consumer reports rates 2022 Yukon 2/100 in Reliability

    Could it be a typo? Maybe it is 20/100.

    2021 Tahoe 5.3 engine failure at 4,800 miles

    Has anyone who has had the lifter repair checked their carfax to see if the repair is documented?

    What services will I be missing out on particularly navigation?

    2022 Denali Ultimate, what is everyone paying right now

    I just got a call from a local dealer asking if I wanted to place an order. Parts suppliers are the ones holding up production when that log jam breaks we should be flush with new vehicles but at higher prices. This as with most things is temporary.

    '21 Tahoe Z71 alignment - anyone else?

    Take it to the shop. I always have my new GMs aligned, my guy puts them in the center of spec he says they are all out the same. Once aligned steering is better along with less tire wear.

    2022 Denali Ultimate, what is everyone paying right now

    Billionaires get to go to space and we're stuck with $140,000 Escalades. Life ain't fair.

    In a world where buyers flush with cash exceed units available there are no rules.

    The most disappointing news yet, the return of auto start/stop

    No heated steering wheel and only a $25 credit. I not only have cold hands but cold feet for this deal.

    Heated/Cooled Seats to Work at Later Date

    So I have a few years. I see this sentiment more and more as if time is running out and desperation takes over. It's just a vehicle that needs more time to improve buying it now won't change a thing. After driving it awhile it will be but another possession as the anticipation becomes a memory...

    The most disappointing news yet, the return of auto start/stop

    These vehicles have been crippled beyond consideration.

    The most disappointing news yet, the return of auto start/stop

    I would have to add this to my routine of shifting to manual and hitting the + four times to bypass AFM. Kind of works in opposite of conveniences. I can think of only one situation where auto stop might be a nice feature, waiting in line at the fast food restaurant and if it were normally off...

    Chevrolet Auburn Metallic

    Thinking this might be a nice color and a change from my usual choices. What does the community think of Auburn? Images would be a bonus something other than the promotional pics.

    Heated/Cooled Seats to Work at Later Date

    With all this why not just wait for '23? At some point parts shortages will let up then we'll see an uptick in production, a return of full optioned models along with the return of incentives. Are we buying now because of impatience or need?

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    I was an electrician who worked trouble shooting these very systems. If it is just a bad batch of lifters then GM has done a terrible job of finding and fixing the problem or they placed production and profit above all else sacrificing quality and reputation. Either scenario is extremely...

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    I retired from GM I know how their tracking system keeps track of every component's lot number and which finished product it goes into. The tracking system is automated and if it's not satisfied the process won't run, period. It's a requirement of their ISO certification. If it were a bad batch...

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    ISO 9000 tracks every lot number so it wouldn't be hard to identify those engines with the so-called bad lot of lifters and replace those lifters. GM is not being forthcoming but is dripping company excuses on the internet. That I'm sure.

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    If it is just a bad batch why doesn't GM identify the engines and replace them. No one left on the highway no bad pr. and GM can more easily justify the extremely high prices. And calling people who have had the misfortune of experiencing a failed lifter on an as new vehicle trolling internet...

    Which build months are safe from lifter problems?

    I hate it when someone posts about not having a problem as it should be expected but here I go. My 2012 5.3L runs and idles smooth as butter. Only run with 87 octane top tier fuel, no Kroger gas. I also put it in the manual mode bypassing FM until it warms up, don't know if that helps.

    Current Constraints

    Not a bad choice but traditionally same model yearly updates have been color changes and such. March used to be a good time to buy 4 wheel drive vehicles from GM with nice incentives and before next years increase. But it's hard to predict these days.

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    Too little too late they are only doing this to move the few stigmatized '21s off the lot. If they really cared about the customers they would have been doing this since June. Or before, the lifter problem has been with the Silverados since 2020 I believe. An extended warranty should be a basic...

    Lifter Issues on ‘21s Being Delivered to Dealers

    Watching this unfold I don't blame him wanting a vehicle that is more reliable with a manufacturer that is willing to fully take care of what should be the rare individual who is put out by a failure. GM is doing the bare minimum when customers are against the wall. Shills may disagree.
