Unless you are wanting a unicorn of a Sierra, I'd think you could find one on the lot vs ordering. Now if they are saying a Sierra order is only 4-6 weeks out, have at it

This isn't your normal dealer, but they have over 150 Sierras on the lot


What I'm seeing is consistent with that. The dealers usually have 30 1/2 ton pickups for every 1 full size 3 row SUV.

The reason I wanted a 1/2 ton based full size SUV was to tow a track car on a flatbed trailer. If I end up up with a 1/2 ton pickup, I may not need a 1/2 ton based full size SUV and a unibody 3 row full size SUV like a Jeep Grand Cherokee L would suffice 3-5 years down the road to replace my existing SUV.

My XL Denali with reserve package got picked up today. Order placed Nov. 9. They had 2 orders in front of me that got picked up a couple of weeks ago, so they told me it would be soon. I'm waiting on a TPW, but it should be early January with delivery in February.

I originally ordered an AT4 6.2L through a different dealer in September, but it never got picked up since the 6.2 is on constraint.

We got a new Tahoe this summer, to replace a ten year old pickup, and a 16 year old SUV. So far it's working out just fine. It tows the "race" car, and the Airstream. But we didn't need anything fancy, so we just got an LS with only the Max Tow option. Less than two months from placing order at the local small town dealer, till delivery.

it's kind of amusing reading all the folks lamenting that they can't get the big bucks models with all the options. I guess I've been so deprived, having never driving anything newer than a 2012, that the base model Chevy is way fancier than I need.

Oh, I think there maybe a misunderstanding. Personally, I don't want all the options. I really just want one option on the Yukon XL Denali gas and that's the Max Trailering package. I'm not going to pay "big bucks" for something that's not exactly how I've wanted it.

I've started factory ordering cars since 2014 for the last 2 vehicles I have. I've always been good with waiting a couple of months for exactly what I want.

Exactly how I feel. I'd order a High Country to get the better interior if they had an "offroad version", but since they don't, it's a Z71 Burb for me.
The AT4/RST are both no-go's due to the dark interior option, and the Denali is a no-go due to the price.
I've bought two new prev-gen Denalis', but doubt I'd buy another due to the excessive price increases vs. the incremental content.
The Ford King Ranch truck package slots about equal to the Denali in options.

Per GM chat today:
The current event code is 3000 and the Target Production week is 01/02/2023, however this is subject to change. Have I answered your questions today?

Christmas is ruined!!! Haha.
So according to my dealer I also have a TPW of 1/2/2023 but he said that could change. Like you I have the diesel Denali on order but more of a base model---just ACC, Max Tow and bench seats in 2nd row. Not sure I want a vehicle produced just before the Christmas break anyway :)

My ‘23 order update is that I’ve now cancelled my order… because this ‘22 is now tucked away in my garage!

‘22 Yukon XL SLE - Duramax - Max Tow - 9-seater - Satin Steel Metallic

D42AACEC-4F40-4CB6-8CED-100E45390409.jpeg

I got a one-way plane ticket for Friday morning and drove back 400 miles to home later that day. It checks all the boxes for us - only other option we had on our order this one doesn’t have is the Pro Safety Plus pkg.

5 miles on the odometer when I got the keys. 400 mile trip home with lunch and a rest area stop - 31.3mpg and cluster shows 478 miles of range remaining. Amazing!

The 9 seat config is so nice! Even with my 5 kids we’re able to put two more adults in with us. We’ve already picked up my folks and went out and looked at Christmas lights with them.

100% worth the wait!
