Standard Luxury Options

The 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 rests upon an entirely new platform this year. It's longer, has more interior space, and shows off a handsome exterior facelift that further differentiates itself in a meaningful way from its counter-part the Chevy Silverado. Exclusive features include adaptive dampeners, a split folding tailgate, a carbon fiber cargo box, and C-shaped lighting elements to name just a few. The Crew cabs longer wheelbase makes way for 3 more inches of leg room in the back seat. All trims are built on a lighter frame and suspension components with aluminum hood and door panels saves 360 pounds over its predecessor. Also new for 2019 is Dynamic Fuel Management, which is designed to fine-tune the balance between efficiency and power demand. It lets the engine operate anywhere between two and eight cylinders depending on load.

The GMC Sierra derives a lot of value from being extremely customizable. Even in its most basic form, the Sierra feels upscale, but still extremely capable. With a base price of around $37,000, it's affordable enough that owners will feel comfortable using the truck in the utilitarian way it was intended. Furthermore, updates to the MultiPro tailgate and Prograde Trailering system are a real game-changer in this competitive truck market. Denali editions start at around $67,000 and offer plenty of luxury for those who want a truck that can both work hard and coddle its occupants.
