I just got a call from my salesman saying while my wait for my ‘22 Denali has been almost ten months, be glad because they are pulling the 6.2L V8 and all Yukons Tahoes and Suburbans. Only getting the 5.3. He also said they likely won’t be building ‘23s for months and months.
i wonder if they are pulling the 6.2 has anything to do with the lifter issue they had before, or they have other problems with that motor we haven't heard about. I am patiently waiting for the 23's to be open to order so i can order my base LS with blackout nameplate and bowtie and driver alert package, and I HOPE that it will get picked up quickly after and built and shipped as well. I can't wrap my head around GM allowing folks to order equipment that they likely know is a constraint/or soon going to be constraint. Sucks you have been waiting for 10 months, and hope mine doesn't need to be dragged out that long.

23 production should be last week of July

This makes no sense... There are still 6.2's being delivered, why would that be if it was being pulled out because of the lifters or something else? I think if they will only be getting 5.3's for a while, it must be because of missing parts. What a mess: it would be easy for GM to at least send an e-mail to the thousands with lost trucks.

Could it be your salesman wanted to try to find a way to turn your wait into a positive?

If it seems like a mess, I think it is because you have a million different sales people giving their own version of what happened or what is going to happen. Some of it is true, but I suspect most of it is a variation of the truth. I'm personally not going to put a lot of stock in this latest 6.2 rumor until I hear it confirmed from multiple sources. If I learned anything over the last few months it is to take one salesman's comments with a grain of salt...Case in point, go back to the first post of this thread. The dealer told me 2023 orders were open, but later admitted they simply got a late allocation for a 2022 and he got all excited. So I'm going to wait on this 6.2 rumor for more info....and hope it doesn't affect the diesel :)

There should be no price change as long as your dealer put it in as a retail sold order.
