I used to think the same on large vs small and I'm sure that's true more often than not, but the dealer I have the order through is a large dealer and they aren't getting jack squat from what I can see on the GMC website. We've been waiting 10 months with zero movement on our build....Meanwhile I found another dealer out of state dealer that says they have a pretty short order list and per the GMC website has received several duramax yukon XLs recently, but we put a deposit in with our original order so I have to figure that out before I can explore placing any additional orders with other dealers!
I keep telling myself just to be patient, but we are now 4-6 months past the timeframe we were told an order would take, and we are also a month or two passed the updated estimate we were given to get a 2023 when we transitioned our order to a 2023 back in July. Meanwhile I can't get a straight answer out of anyone associated with GM because no one seems to know what's actually going on. On top of all that interest rates have pretty much doubled from where they were when we ordered, and from where they were in the original timeframe we were told it would take to receive an order.
The whole process is just frustrating....and sometimes I like to whine about it...eventually we will get what we want, it just may be a 2043 model at this rate
