Current Build Times

Just for the heck of asking... Can i assume that the Chips that everyone is waiting on are coming from Asia?
I hear some Camera and Stereo receivers are going through the same thing.

China, 3 main factories that make the chips. 1 China, 2 Taiwan. My conspiracy is that they are being held on purpose for the EV push.

Just curious what everyone is seeing as far as delays or turnaround time for builds Tahoes

Ordered a Tahoe LT with Max Trailering package on January 25. Still no build date. Reading so many comments that say they waited so long only to receive they build without all the features requested. Strongly considering backing out until this chip crisis is over so I can ensure getting all the features I want. The entire purpose of ordering this vehicle was to have the ability to tow a trailer safely and comfortably. I've already waited 5 months. Might as well keep waiting til I can get exactly what I want. Will need to see if my dealer will give me my $5000 deposit back.

You should be watching dealer incoming stock. There are still many units coming in every day that have max trailering. Many are already sold on the way in, but there are a few out there if you’re willing to search and make phone calls. Mine came loaded with everything including things that they are excluding from new orders and it was just a factory dealer order. I just got lucky, but you can too if you are diligent….

My order of an XL Denali I placed in October last year that has everything except for the rear seat media is now being built. The wheels came available last month, the microchip shortage is slowly improving and they are starting to build more vehicles with the advanced tech package and air suspension.

Sounds like Arlington where the full size SUVs are assembled isn't part of this.

Not yet anyways. They are hoping to redirect parts from the non-performing lines into the lines that bring the most revenue.

Heard from my dealer today with good news on 2022 Tahoe z71 6.2L. Placed the non-official order with the dealer last week.
Today he called and said the order got accepted with no constraints and he expects it to be ready by late October... doesn't seem realistic but we'll see

I heard from my dealer today as well on my order for a basic 2021 Z71 with just panoramic roof and second row captain chairs. Ordered on July 15. Order got accepted with no constraints on August 20th and they had allocation. TPW of September 6th. I hope the COVID doesn’t postpone it further. The good thing is that they are locking in the $500 cash back or $1000 in accessories.

It is interesting. I ordered a 2021 Highcountry in May and never got picked up due to constraints, ordered a 2022 a Highcountry again completely constrained with no allocation. Put in an order for a Z71 6.2 today with ever option other than performance exhaust and no constraints and dealer has immediate allocation so we will see if it gets picked up next week.
