2002 GMC Sierra 2500 Review

Summary

What Edmunds.com says

Why buy more truck than you can use but settle for less than you need? GMC doesn't think that makes sense, so it offers a 2500-series light-duty Sierra to slot between humdrum half-tons and big-bruiser heavy-duties. Ask the Toyota salesperson if the Tundra can do that.

Pros

Class-leading engines and hauling capacity, roomy interior.

Cons

Cheap interior materials, spotty build quality.

What's New for 2002

GMC's light-duty 2500s get only minor changes for 2002. Base model SLs now come standard with air conditioning, while uplevel SLE and SLT models get standard deep-tinted glass. All Sierras get redesigned badging and extendable sun visors.
