Midlothian to Possession

[Mskazee]

I've got the option to reserve a yukon Denali that has a window sticker and shoes up as in transit on the gmc website. Dealer is in arkansas. Anyone have any insight on how long shipping usually takes? I know that everything is questionable right now but considering I still don't have any updates on the tahoe we ordered in February, I am really considering it.

exception bias

anyone on here shopping/ordering should take any info on here with a grain of salt for sure (referencing everyone else's comments - not just yours), but in turn use the info to question the dealer...like your situation above, my next question would've been...what normally occurs?

Pretty sure they were just completely full of it and lying to me…yet again. I had just told them I was concerned bc it didn’t have a WS even though they had told me it was built and waiting for shipment prior to me putting down a deposit. He said “oh, don’t worry! We actually just got one in that didn’t have a WS!” Okay bud.

I would take it. Mine took about a 4 weeks from WS being visible to delivery, but mostly because of the delays in transit from final rail yard to the dealership (the trucks were backlogged).

That's awesome, glad to see some movement within the group.

Could you remind us of some key dates and partial vin?

My TPW was 3/28, but it went straight to Mid right after it was built on 4/5. Then it sat there until around 6/10 when my dealer said it was getting loaded for delivery. Then took about 4 or 5 weeks to actually get to the dealer due to issues with the trains & trucks.

Mine is a Yukon XL Denali for reference.

yep...they all have a narrative for sure

talked to a dealer over the weekend - they were $4k over. he said that if we were trading something in the markup just evens out the current market increases on the used side. i held my tongue because i wanted to ask if the markup was still applied if we didn't trade anything in

Finally, my Tahoe has reached the dealership. Quite a journey for me. I'll place the timeline below as a reference point for fellow members going through this travesty of waiting for their car to arrive. Salesman sent me some pictures today. I won't be able to pick it up until Saturday (Dealer is 2.5 hours away). Hang in there Boys...your Rigs soon come.

pretty quick turn around once it was accepted...in all phases...removed the first line item and it's pretty impressive. Wonder how many Tahoes the dealer went through before yours was accepted...

I would take it… I’m in the same situation. My Tahoe was built in Mid April and still showing MP status. I found a similar build at a dealer 3 hours away for msrp and picking up Saturday. I figure if my order ever did show up I could consider trading (if used values are still high) since my original order had an msrp that was 2300 below the current price.

Just got a text from my dealer early this morning that my Tahoe made it out of Texas and is in Louisiana. (I didn't know they shipped them across the Gulf to Florida!) So that means it sat about a week in Arlington after sitting for almost a month in Midlothian TX, after being produced on 6/15. For those that are still waiting your time is surely coming since they seem to be clearing things out finally. I'm sure that hardware shop in Grand Prairie has been very busy!
