Sorry to say this, but after owning 3 wonderful Denali's, DFM has run me out of the 6.2 market, chip shortage has run me out of the ease of ordering and getting delivery, and 3.0 availability has me at the Genesis dealer. I'm going to be a new GV80 owner.

I will miss owning a Denali, but GM has run me off. I have a C8, so I can "enjoy" DFM with that.
I have a Genesis Coupe and a GMC Danali 6.2 Both are fun. And both are fast.

All of the GMC dealer experiences I've had, owning 2 Denalis', were light years worse than my wifes' experience owning a Lexus that cost 1/2 as much as either of my trucks. (And none of my experiences were bad - just not worth remembering fondly)

Heck, even buying a new C6 Corvette the selling dealer made it no different than buying a base Cobalt. Not their fault, just the way of the world in GM hierarchy.

If Lexus had a better V8 engine in their LX line, I'd buy it in a heartbeat for the overall brand experience.
