We just purchased a 2015 Sierra 1500 Z71 SLT with 50K on it, the Denali is one step up from what we have. Love the truck but your rite, my daughters only complaint every time she has to ride in the back seat is that there are no seat heaters in the rear. And the phone app is great as well, love being able to start the truck near the end of dinner and come out to it nice and warm or cold. The fact that you can set it up so the seat and steering wheel heaters will come on when it's cold or even the seat coolers when it's hot out is really nice.

I really enjoy my 2017 Sierra Denali 1500 with the 6.2. The huge power and yet excellent economy is just two things you would not think would go together. It is quiet like a sedan inside and rides smooth. My only major concern at this point is the 8 speed transmission as it seems like it is a weak spot in the drivetrain. It occaisionally cannot find the gear it wants to be in. I am in touch with the dealer to try to remedy.That being said it is still a superb truck to drive.

I have the 18 denali with the 6.2 and absolutely love it. Plenty of power. Last road trip in it I averaged 25.2 mpg. I have also had the instrument cluster go dark twice and do not use apple play. Solution was to shut truck off for a minute and restart it. Waiting on software update from dealer to solve issue.

Great review! I've been a ford, dodge fan for ever...I've worked for my company for 26 years and have always had ford 2500 diesels and loved them, every 150k I get to pick out a new model I've kept the ford because of dependably and why not..... Until 2019 out of popular demand "and a little pressure from my coworkers" 😁 I decided on a GMC Sierra HD 2500 Denali Duramax..... Damn what a truck...like you, I've had it for a year and just under 60k miles, I hate to say it but I REALLY enjoy driving it I'm an electrician/hvac tech for a communication company and work on our business, cellular towers and small offices throughout our area and have a inclosed utility box on it I average 15 mpg all the time when I'm pulling a mini-X or skidsteere I average 12mpg! Well... Long story short it's made me decide to give my personal pickup (2012 ram power wagon 1500 4x4) to my younger son he is 23 and responsible!! and get a damn 2020 gmc sierra 1500 denali 4x4 with the gas 😁 I was laying in bed early this Sunday morning watching videos on the 1500s and yours was the first to pop-up and thank you for being honest I was definitely interested between the difference in the two engine sizes and wonder if it's worth getting the 6.2 vs the 5.3??? I rarely haul anything other than my flatbed utility trailer with sleds, quads, or bunk of osb or 2x6s....whats your opinion vs the two engines?? Thanks sir!

Hey Robert, Thanks for watching! Sure. It is a very strong, reinforced top that we stand on for an elevated video platform. The top is a single piece that wraps over the top lip of the bed so water penetration doesnt happen. it locks which is great because we store stuff for the car trailers in it.The truck can be driven at highway speeds with the top up. It does limit large square objects that extend to the cab end, but it is removable. ( 1 person can do it, but it is a LOT easier with two. We are about to post the installation video in a couple of days. We have already shot it, just got to finish the editing. This is the 3rd Denali pick up that Full Octane has had with this top. Check out our accessory video, it goes into a little more detail. let us know what you end up with!

I fell In love with this truck and I don’t even own one. There’s this dealership that’s selling one for 32k it’s a 2015 Denali 6.2L but it has 103,369 miles on it already I’m not sure if it’s a good idea buying a truck that already had 100k miles on it and it’s only 4 years old.

Fair enough.. esthetically the this now almost 2-1/2 year old truck with over 70k miles still looks like new. Issues.. had to replace the seat motor that vibrates with the proximity system, had the transmission remapped for a stuttering issue, had a brake vacuum pump replaced and some outdoor temp sensor that affected the climate control. I have spent about $1500 out of pocket. Not really too bad considering the mileage. I think you should be able to find a lower mileage example for that price. Good Luck!

Nearly same real world mpg as 5.3 but 420hp and 460tq and the beautiful v8 sound it makes when you press the go pedal! Just make sure the truck you get does NOT have 3:08 gears.

Lee Kilgore The 5.3 is a good engine. I’d buy a 6.2 over a 5.3 if both are offered. There is ALOT more 5.3 avail than 6.2 like 95% of dealer stock is the 5.3. Avoid the 3:08 gear ratio at all costs. The gear ratio is on the window sticker. 3;23 and 3;42 are good ratios for power and economy. Check laurabuickgmc for the lowest new prices on trucks. Brand new trucks are 12 - 16k off MSRP. No BS. I flew in, they picked me up from airport and I was driving my new truck home within a few hours. I still saved thousands vs my local dealer prices and added BS charges.

IDK why, but you remind me of Dan Akroyd lol. Oh yeah, I should or should probably mention I'm about 23K miles into my GMC 1500 and still enjoying the heck out of it. Still get "giddy" when it's time to drive and the "newness" still hasn't worn off.

Doesn't Sierra Denali come with the auto park assist package ? I'm not used to parking large vehicles, so if I have a truck, I'm probably going for the canyon since its more suited to my size preferences and I don't need auto park assist to help.

I believe the transmission issues are too common based on reading complaints on online forums. I drove a 16' quad cab Chevrolet 5.3 with the 8 speed transmission for the past year, and it was plagued by the same transmission issues you spoke of in your video. Apart from replacing transmissions and repeatedly flashing the transmission software, there wasn't any "final solution" for the problems. Hard downshifts, slipping, and shuddering were daily issues for my truck. I just rolled the dice last week and traded that truck off on an 18' GMC with the 6.2 and 8 speed transmission. I'm hoping that GM's engineers have worked out some of those issues in the past two years.

My problem is that it’s exterior styling is so mild and boring.

Peyton Lawhon 2017. We also have a 2018 we have reviewed in another video

I just bought a sold my 18 1500 GMC for 6.7 2020 limited so much nicer conpare to gm trucks and cars. The new 2021 ram limited is my dream truck going trade the ford next year.

"Heavy use" cracked me up. The first gripe was the radio. This isn't a truck, it's a station wagon with less interior space. Most new trucks are grocery getters and useless for people that actually use a truck.

talking more about mileage. I do own a new construction company and I do usually haul crap around on a regular basis such as HVAC equipment, ductwork etc... not a lot of towing tho. fair comment, it is a 1500, not a larger 2500 or bigger... thanks for watching

Yes... in the front seats only. Check out the 2019 Denali video we just posted... they have added that and more the back seats! kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHiNxaWHZKXNkrg.html

KZread auctions the ads to the highest bidder.. when you think about it.. it makes sense for Ford to place ads on reviews involving their competitors

Some of these reviews are the problem of getting the lower model Denali..and not fully loaded so

What is the towing capacity of your GMC?

What specifically makes Ram a Good truck? There is no good all around truck in my opinion, for example frame material, or engine/transmission problems. Which will it be? Look all trucks break down, yes all trucks do eventually and they need to be repaired. Some quicker with less cost, others later with more. Infact i see alot of people simply hearing their engines dying before my drums and they don't care. Whenever i see a truck "rolling coal" it usually happens to be a dodge by the way. So if it's reliable it is gonna be ruining everyone elses day and probably the earth. All trucks Have their upsides or downsides in their own regard. I am yet to say my 6.0 big block black block vortec is the best and I know it'll last me the rest of my life if i wanted to with respectable repair costs. For example if my frame rotted out I can buy a new frame for around 3,000.

Yes it is for farming and towing horse trailers (nothing against farmers working hard) But ram looks boring for most of the time and the same model after model( except the last 1500 ‘s) Why every one has to get so personal what they drive it’s a truck.

We are real people with real budgets unfortunately... I would like to get the 6.2 on the next round. As I said before tho, the 5.3 pulls my collector cars and trailers just fine and it beats the Hell outta the Nissan Pathfinder I had b4 as a company truck. Thanks for watching and comment , Justin!

A company truck. A fiscally responsible truck decision. I wrote a check for 2 on the same day and I had no corporate use for the 6.2, which I of course would have taken , as a car guy.... I was just taking care of the entity that just bought me a Denali to drive the crap outta. Is that fair?

lol... Im the VP.. not the President... yet... hell, my last company truck was a Nissan Pathfinder so Im smiling anyway. Curt did exactly as you recommended and bought the 2018 6.2. I put around 35K a year on this truck and we usually trade around 100K so......... 6.2 it is for the next round. Got to admit tho, except for a little acceleration, this truck has done everything I have asked of it, including pulling my 18ft enclosed trailer and some of my show cars for over 3K miles in the past year. but.. you are right. check out our review of Curts 2018 6.2, it is a better truck. Thanks for watching AND commenting!
