A real masterpiece among pickup trucks of North America! Dreams come true!

I have two Gmc products. Love them both. Good review

Looks like a pretty nice truck! Love the tailgate and running boards and simple efficiency of the interior (if a bit too simple)! At that price I’d like to see a 35 gal fuel tank and towing mirrors!

Just a word of caution - the new 2019 Silverado-Sierra twins can NOT even be ordered or does NOT come with the “power brake and foot pedal” adjuster.... Think about such a large truck without this option....If you have short legs, you have to move up the seat close to the steering wheel, which has an airbag in it. This is normally a pretty standard option for most trucks (GM, Ram, Ford)...I own a 2017 Silverado, but some “bean counter” within GM axed this very useful feature......why?

Love that running board!

So with the new cylinder deactivation system where the engine shuts down to 2 cylinders and the new 350 pounds of weight reduction, this truck still gets the same miles per gallon as the previous model. The information center between the RPM and the speedometer looks like it was made from Mattel in 1985. The 2015-2018 looks so much better. I will say that the tailgate is AWESOME!

Nice review!

Don't drop that step with a hitch on or you'll spend double getting it replaced!

Stephen Bradley......I thought the same thing!

Good morning, We got the 6,2l a month ago (2018) SLT, 3,42, with towing mirrors (where are the new ones??) and went on vacation - 4000km, towing a 6500lbs TT, and got the same mpg than what we had with the ecodiesel - but much nicer towing experience...relaxing even... That 6,2l is worth any money you pay for, but it has to run on premium! That's the only drawback!

The problem is GM only offers the 6.2L in their higher-end trucks. If someone wants say a short bed regular cab 2WD truck with a 6.2L/10 speed they're SOL unless they built it themselves. You shold at least be able to option this engine/transmission in a midlevel quad or crew cab Z71. Also the 10 speed should of made it to the 5.3L. Ford is using it on most of the engine options even on the low optioned trucks even though I think some of the lowerend trucks will still get their old 6 speed auto.

Good morning, it is written in the owners manuel. As well, it is also noted on the gas door. We run premium as we also ran premium diesel when we had one. A simple security. Regular will probably be just fine, but we want to make certain this engine will last at least 200,000KM, or about 160,000miles.

Same exact mpg (or in our case km/l) impressive given the absolute power available (HP & Torque) but most impressive is the fact that we were able to run on V4 on the highway...wow. The accountant in me is really impressed...and apparently, the oil changes are cheap - anyway, certainly cheaper then the ecodiesel - that is still to confirme.

I think they were going for the R2-D2 look with the center stack.

I have to ask. Did you drive the vehicle all the way to Newfoundland? If so how's the long drive experience?

For the price of that truck they really need to fire their interior design team.

Reading all the hate on gmc/gm trucks makes me 😅 most can't afford them, it's OK, some of us can afford them and we don't hate you cause you can't! Enjoy your brand, quit hating on brands you don't like or simply can'tafford, all trucks are badass in my books, fyi I own a 2021 gmc sierra denali 6.2 and don't think it's better than a ram or f150 or a tundra, peace yall.

No flat floor in the rear

To me that is the best looking truck ,the interior is a different story but still an awesome truck.

Thanks for pronouncing Newfoundland correctly!

I want the Denali front fascia on the 2019 Ram. This center stack and center console was new in 99. Not suitable for today's buyers. Many will buy this for it's aggressive exterior styling and new tailgate. I'm a Ram owner who's been waiting since 08 for a new Ram. 2019 looks like a minivan head-on. I'll continue to wait another two to three years for the next front fascia update to the Ram. There is no rush for me to get a new truck. My 04 RAM still looks great and has never been in the shop for anything other than the airbag recall and scheduled maintenance. The 2019 RAM has ABS insert below the headlights. This allows them to offer three different headlights, as well as update the front fascia easily without retooling for new quarter panels. This aspect gives me hope they'll return to the more aggressive front fascia that won me, and countless others over in 02. Of course I had just purchased my new F150 when the first spy pics of the all new 02 RAM were released. Talk about buyer's remorse!!! Geez. I damn near cried about it. But, like many I patiently waited until my truck was paid off. Within a week of the last payment on the F150 I was in my new 04 Ram Laramie. A feeling I want to enjoy again in a new faclifted 2020 Ram 1500 CrewCab Laramie. Let's make it happen RAM!!!

What is the size of the larger fuel tank? Also I like the truck, i like nice basic amenities I like the simpleness of the truck while having some nice comfort. Nice video thank you

I believe he is in error. Check the GMC Sierra forums; nobody has heard ANYTHING about a larger tank... with two exceptions. i) a regular-cab long-bed can get a 28 gallon tank and ii) the heavy duty trucks get a 36 gallon tank

10:50 . . .and THERE you have it

Pro tailgate puts the others to shame, rear bumper steps, extra wide bed, AC outlet in the bed and cabin, 12, (yes 12) welded in place bed tie-downs plus 6 optional tie-down spots, storage behind the rear seats (tire pump), storage under the rear seats, full size spare..plus the GMC cheaper than the others even in the Denali trim (heads up display, surround camera vibrating seat alerts (instead of a chime))...best value by far. UPDATE: I bought a loaded SLT with the STANDARD size bed. With the gate down and the "step" flipped up 4' x 8' drywall and plywood will fit FLAT on the bed with 2 inches of clearance between the wheel wells and about 5 inches of clearance between the back of the bed and the flipped up step. With the AC outlet in the bed we can cut our pieces right at the truck if we need to. Just an awesome truck.

Can you actually opt for a larger fuel tank? I'm not so sure about that; would you mind double checking and replying here?

The interior designers of the 2019 gm trucks said they did not wanted to change the interior so much because a lot of people liked the old interior a lot. So there was no need to change it but yea it old looking.

The tailgate is an amazing feature for the GMC Sierra. However, the interior doesn't come close to the new Ram 1500 and if I was looking for a truck, I would get the Ram.

$67,000... yea, no thanks.

How reliable are GMC SIERRA TRUCKS?

as and owner of 2016 and previous '12, '08 and '05 Sierra Denali, GMC has taken many steps back with this one. Drive a 2018 then 19 and see what you think...

So to use that 6 way function on the tail gate you have to remove the hitch ball unless you put a big hole on the tail gate to let it down and it wont hit the hitch ball🙉🙈

I'm so glad I got the 18 instead. GM what have you done?

finally the trunk is easily accessible, to go up and down. It is the new decade

Thanks for the inspiration guys! @cZ2Q

I like Honda's Ridgeline tailgate design (drop down or swing open). It's simpler, doesn't have electric actuators. And will probably stand the test of time better than this for that reason

This interior is so cheap it makes me wonder why GMC has the Denali in the first place

Now the Honda ridge line is right

i love thet crezy track $$$$$$$$$$$

When you get close to 460lb tq the "Torque management" Kicks in even without a trailer or weight in the back to save its transmission from grenading. And when this happens its more like old school traction control that cuts power a lot. Merging out is dangerous.

How much

The tailgate is going to hit the hitch if you have one

That tailgate makes all the bailouts worth it

You can still get a regular tailgate if you desire. BTW this guy should go full Mohawk hair cut and get rid of the sideburns. That comb over looks terrible.

Navigation screen is too small

only wanna push something to get out like the c7

Huge wheels with low profile tires make for a rough ride? Who knew?

I have owned 2 gm trucks since 1996. I am currently driving a 2002 Silverado 1500 5.3 ext cab and it has 143k on it. I have spent over 6k just to keep this truck on the road. Between the piston slap, rotting brake lines, fuel lines and rocker panels which I refuse to fix. I have had enough with gm. My next truck will be a 2021 tundra and it will most likely be my last truck. No more GM for me.

A perfect example of GM getting comfortable with their current status. I remember when GM did this back in 2000 and had to lay off workers and couldn't sell their vehicles even for a loss. (Remember the buy out) No way does this truck come close to the ram. As a matter of fact the real only innovation is the tailgate and 10 speed that comes with one hell of a up charge (for the 6.2 and 10 speed).

Doesn't begin to compare to the 2019 Ram.

When it comes to domestic trucks, none are top quality but you pick what gives you more for the money and GM just did Ram and Ford a huge favor screwing this one up.

Interior is a missed opportunity that should have been low hanging fruit.

Not enough clearance. Still needs a 6-8” lift.

Are they rust proof ? My 2006 is rusted out replacing brake lines fuel lines, etc what the f. GMC

Well the Ram doesn’t have a Heads up Display, nor a rearview camera that has an ability to be unobstructed, nor does it have magnetic ride control, nor the tailgate, nor the new bed. I mean sure if you don’t care about all those then I guess the Ram is for you, but it’s a trade off. Also no one adds real leather to the dash, it’ll shrink due to heat, so a vinyl dash with stitching is on the Sierras vs hard plastic on the Silverados

I am looking at the comments below, and a majority say "REEEEE INTERIOR SUCKS ASS" and honestly, I can see that it could use updating, but its not that bad. I actually like it over the new Ram because it is practical, something the Ram/Fiat severely lacks. I have already made up my mind, if they keep the same interior, I will be buying a new Silverado.

To say it's an "evolution" of the last generation Sierra is generous. It's the same interior for anything that matters...and no...the leather in the Sierra does not feel more premium than a Silverado. Went to test drive, told them to call me when it gets down under $45k 🙄

wtb a manual transmission...

All that tech in the engine and trans to get 17-22 mpg! Psshhh.... I got that in my 09 Titan. I have a 2018 SLT and can't wait to get rid of it! Big upgrade for 2019 - the tailgate! What a disappointment!

Hummm the truck should have been more square body shop is small for a truck the touchscreen should have. Been bigger all touch there no sunroof the truck is to low the ground. Gm don't let ford or dodge the crown

Nice tailgate, nice looking truck. But the interior and ergonomics is no better than the Ram 1500.

all these bells and whistles after five or six years that rare end it will get rusty in no time and nothing will function including that running board at the end its GMC very expensive but body don't last unless you spend another few thousands to cover the metal to help slow down rust on them trucks frame

Good looking truck BUT only thing is the interior, a BIG miss. Could have done a much better job! Such a shame...

The truck looks great, reliability however? I had a 2010 and got rid of it. Door handles, body mold, tie rods all broken. $$. Poor manufacturing.

90% of the comments here are just Ram fanboys saying the Ram is better. You sure seem to know a lot about these trucks for someone who drives a rusted 1985 Honda thats being held together with duct tape and bungee cords. Everybody complains about how it isn't different enough from the last generation. If it ain't broke don't fix it. It works, the customers like it so why change it?

I really think 2019 is gonna be a RAM year the ram 1500 is just the best new truck in years stylish and otherwise

Less stuff to break. If I wanted luxury, I’d get a Tahoe or Cadillac XTS. All this luxury doesn’t belong in pickup trucks. That’s why I got the Silverado LT, and optioned it with the max towing package. Ya know, because I used my truck as a truck. Do wish I had a 6.2L but the 5.3L gets the job done just fine.

I drive Rams but have always liked the Denali, to me the trucks have always looked good. This thing is ugly.

who ever said you need to run premium fuel in GM'S 6.2 liter engine is false! Premium fuel is recommended but NOT required. How do I know? Because I own one and run regular all the time in my 6.2 liter engine with zero problems. For all you people that hate or put down GM'S New Silverado and GMC Sierra I have one thing to say, GO POUND SAND! GM'S trucks are superior quality and superior engineered compared to the fiat ram and the butt ugly fords. By the way, My 6.2 liter is the best V8 engine you can buy in a pickup truck!

As far as reliability, the Ecoboost has tons of issues including: Condensation in the Intercooler Timing Chain Wear Ignition Issues Blue Or White Smoke From Exhaust Face it, you have to beat on that little 6 popper to get it to perform near a pushrod V8.

Denali cost twice as much as the Silverado. RAM WINS!!!
