LOL My order was accepted in February and I still do not have a build date. I suspect you might be waiting a bit longer than 8 weeks....
I’ve ordered every car I’ve ever bought and this will probably be my last Chevy order ever. It’s been such a joke time wise as well as communication

I placed my order for my Z71 3.0 Duramax in February and I still do not have a build date as of 4/14. Does anyone have any idea when production will really kick in? I only found one Z71 3.0 Duramax at a dealer in Oklahoma as of today so I know they have build at least one....
The one in Oklahoma appears to be an outlier...and makes me nervous to pull the trigger. Was it a test build of some sort?

I was told Z71 Suburbans w/ 3.0 will be the last ones off the production line.

Has anyone here taken delivery, or received a build date, for a Z71 Tahoe 3.0 yet? Once those start being built, the Suburbans will follow

Chevy should have been more upfront about the z71s being even later than everything else

My HC 3L has been built and is awaiting shipment to my dealer. Not sure how long that process normally takes, but hopefully not too much longer. Dealer was able to confirm that it's been built but hasn't been assigned a transport carrier yet.

Chat on chevrolet.com is reporting:

"Congratulations! Your vehicle has been produced. It is important to know that shipping arrangements will take place next and your selling dealer is the best source for additional detail on that process."
Likewise for me. Built week of 3/31 and dealer has told me in transit to holding lot in Maryland. Expects it at dealer next week.

I'm anxious to see how the LZ0 diesel is compared to the old LM2. I had a LM2 in a 2023 Yukon and I thought it was very lazy. Seems to be fine in a pickup truck but our SUV's are a lot heavier and push a lot more wind. The 6.2 moves it without effort.
I had a 2023 Tahoe HC diesel that I loved (when it wasn’t in the shop - electrical issues). Just finished buyback last week and expect 2025 next week. Will post any differences.

Our order was finally accepted today! Hopefully we can get it in the next 8 weeks or so.

So long as the 3.0 gets up to highway speeds without making me feel like a snail, that is all I care about - buying a 5,705 means speed was not my priority. I care about crusing at 70-75 and averaging 26+ mpgs.
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I loaded my 2023 w/5 passengers, a 70lb dog and a full load of cargo and get 28mpg+ driving I95 at 80mph.
