Used 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 Consumer Reviews

Accident safety

I recently got into a front end collision and it protected me well and the truck will hopefully be rebuildable.

My Ford Was Better.

I absolutely like the six speed automatic. This truck came with 3.08 gears which is a big let down for off the line power. Even its the gears and the six speed it still gets no better gas milage than my Previous F150 with 4 speed auto and 3.73 gears..should have kept the F150..

Steering feels cheap

Bought the truck in Sept. and I gotta say, this is one smooth driving pickup. If I had the extra dough, the SLT would have been the way to go. The door handles are in a bad spot, passengers have a hard time finding them. The cab is already starting to make noise and the steering feels REAL cheap, I'm planning on bring it to the dealer to have it checked out. Fuel economy is good, averaging around 17 mpg. The 5.3 liter has great power, with the truck loaded up, but I haven't towed anything heavy yet so I'm not sure how the truck would handle or brake. The leather interior is very comfortable, even on long trips and you can't beat the full size room. Got a good deal and dealership was great.

Very happy with this 5.3 GMC

I bought this truck with 98,000 miles on it and have put about 22,000 more miles on it since acquisition. It does not burn a drop of oil and it rides better and runs better than my previous 2006 Chevy Avalanche.I hope to keep it ten or 20 more years. It has the AFM listed on the window sticker as all 5.3 s did in 2012. I can not tell when it changes,I can only tell when the tranny changes when driving away. All the power I need and more. It gets about 16 or 17 MPG on average. I have been very happy with this truck and got a good price on it. I did a lot of searching and praying before I bought this truck. I have read the horror story's that some have had and I could never buy or want a new one. I think the secret is the technicians ability to tune the engine and tranny to the proper specs. Good luck to all GM truck owners.
