Reply To: 2022 GMC order forced leftover

Morning Ron, I am skittish about responding to this since the last time I did so on anothers post I got ripped a new one. I said these were year old hold overs and the “gentleman” lit into me and even went politcal on me, even though he doesn’t know me from Adam. But I do feel any 22 being bought today is a year old model and will be reflected in trade value down the road and should be purchased with that in mine. Say nothing about the fact many but perhaps not all have sat out in the hot sun for months on end unlike we as owners would ever do to our own trucks. I waited 15 months, three orders, and two model years to get mine and in the end was extremely fortunate since mine was built in May in Ft. Wayne and about a month after production date I took delivery. If I were in your shoes I would not accept this truck unless they discounted the hell out of it. I know we all have different reasons for needing or wanting a new truck but like myself you have been dealing with your situation as your needs came up. I bought a used truck to get by until mine came in and I think I would again if I were in your shoes and either order a 23 or another brand if you could find something you like. Who knows you may very well be able to get a 23 before that 22 ever shows itself. GM can blame everyone under the sun for this problem but the buck stops with them and only them. They take the orders, they build them, they contract with shippers, and they sell them so how can they not accept the blame.
