I bought this truck on a whim. Took my Sierra double can in for an oil change on Thursday and bought this one on Friday. I have the fanciest slt z71 2x4 you can get without paying for the Denali name. All the trucks needs is a grill and automatic running boards. First off I never thought I'd see trucks this fancy in my lifetime. The other reason I bought it. It was a left over 15 13k off lower interest rate and lower payment. First looks gmcs are the best looking trucks on the road. I like all the bells and whistles on it except for the 8 way seat I can't seem to get comfortable in it. I know it's crazy but it's almost to much adjustment. I don't care for the ride now that I have driven it for 1500 miles but I'm stuck with it. My wife loves it. And yes the transmission shifts at very weird speeds. And I don't care for it but my last one did the same thing. I haven't hauled anything yet I will update when I put it under a load. Also found a bad spot on the paint job we will see how my dealer handles that. But I can say they have been exemplary so far for 2 years. Sunrise gmc on the pike Memphis Tennessee. They deserve to be mentioned they are the reason I bought a second truck. I have noticed the rattles we will deal with that later my 14 did it also. Now on to the positives. 5.3 plenty of power. Looks well I can't say enough about the looks. Dual climate control love it. Heated seats love it a/c seats love it. Flow through console love it. It has a handy pouch in the center console that holds my full size 1911 pistol very nicely. The leather is very nice. The carpet leaves a little to be desired. And the factory floor mats suck 45k for a truck I expect something better. Now on the feature I can't say enough about. The driving safety system. It's awesome it will make drive the way your supposed to. The collision alarm saved me the other day. The park assit is very nice its my daily driver so I park in a tight lot at work. The back up camera in the 15 blows away the 14 model. The lane departure is nice. Heck it even warns you when take your eyes off the road to long. And it has the Anit tailgater feature very nice. If you rear end someone driving this truck with the system on your an idiot and don't deserve to drive a truck that nice. I bought the iridium metallic and with all the chrome it's a nice looking ride. Everywhere I go I get compliments on how nice it is. If you got the money go for it. My purchase date is incorrect the system wouldn't accept that I bought it in 2016 I bought it on 3-4-16

The quietest truck out there!

The Ram and the F150 trucks are both excellent and worthy choices, but there were three things that clinched the deal in favor of GM's offerings. One is the quiet cabin. In driving all of them, GM has the secrets to making a quiet vehicle. Secondly is OnStar. No one else even comes close to offering you a system that can contact help in case of an accident, directions and as well as keeping watch on the condition and operation of the vehicle. OnStar is a big plus. And the third benefit was being able to have Wifi in the vehicle as you travel. No one else even talks about it except to link it through your cell phone, which is perfectly fine if you are always in urban and perfect cell phone areas. Otherwise you are just out of luck. We use our laptop a great deal as we travel so the Wifi is a huge benefit to us. I have no complains whatsoever except that the headlights are terrible. The dealer has changed the bulbs and that has helped some, but it is surprising, that in a modern truck so well thought out and built, that they could install such poor headlights. Hopefully they will upgrade those soon. Otherwise, I love this truck.

Great looks, good mileage but poor quality

I bought this truck new a.m. October 2014. I love the look of the truck and the ride quality is excellent. The infotainment center went out in December 2014 and it took the dealership over a month to get the parts to fix system. Dealership indicated it was a common problem. The heated and cooled seats do not activate with the remote start. Dealer indicated the outside temperature had to be a a certain level. I still can not get the heated and cooled seats to activate even after making sure the settings are correct. At around 11,500 miles, I noticed that the bed of the truck is slightly misaligned with the cab. Grapevine GMC in Grapevine TX refused to honor as a warranty issue. A call to General Motors customer service and the representative indicates the misalignment of the bed of the truck is an alignment issue and the truck is outside of adjustment period. I tried to argue that the alignment period was pertaining to wheel alignment and not to alignment of the truck bed. Decided to get the truck repaired on my own.

Drives like a luxury car. Interior is absolutely top notch. The quietest vehicle I have ever owned. Had 2014 Chevy, this is a step up in style and interior materials. Loving it so far. --Had the time truck for a year now. Overall great experience. The shifting from 2nd to 3rd can be sluggish at the wrong time. Probably my only major compliant.

Looks good but thats all

2015 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali 4dr Crew Cab 4WD 5.8 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 6A)

$65,000 for a designed 2015 Sierra Denali with 6.2L engine is should hold up longer than 10 months. From day 1 I have told the dealer that something was wrong with the transmission. It does not shift smooth at speed 36/37 and 46/47 mph. It was taken in 3 times and was only programmed once and the problem kept getting worse. Dealer tells me that I should not be pulling trailers with this truck but they talked me into the 6.2L engine because they knew what I had (boat, dump trailer and small tractor which is not pulled regularly). I put in reverse one day and the rear end sounded like it was about to fall out. Driving in first and second gear sounded like metal scrubing. Took to dealer and told them I did not want it back until it was fixed. They finally said I needed a transmission. Duh I told you that a month after it was purchased. After the transmission was installed, it still does not shift smooth; I still hear a whining sound like something is not grounded. If finally took it to another dealer to trade in for a GMC 2500 HD and they said trade in is only $41K. Value dropped $24K in less than a year. WOW. Pros: Looks Good; great take off speed; looks good; entertainment good; looks good; rides good; looks good; good gas mileage; looks good Cons: Transmission sucks (replaced less than 10 months old); parking assist fixed 3 times; whining sound; hard to see over hood; price; resale value
