Only thing I really dislike is the interior storage the pockets on the doors are basically useless specially with the doors closed, the center console on the Denali is a joke the hydraulic lifts break easily and have a tendency to trap unwanted items. The back seats lift up and further demonstrate GMC' interior designers were a sleep at the wheel continuing the zero storage theme. my sons Nissan Armada interior storage puts this 70k unit to shame. Other than that it pulls great I like the 500-600 mile range. Current mileage 35000. Times to dealership 2. Tire monitor went bad and for a recall item. Couple more trips to dealer, one said turbo is going out , took to different diesel mechanic added additive engine light went off after driving several miles. Light knob gets hit by knee when climbing in, as stated earlier not really impressed at all with this vehicle. For 70k keep in mind this was in 2013 joke

It will not fit in a normal garage...too long. Gas mileage is 11-13 mpg. That being said, I have done nothing but maintenance. The truck has the gas 6.0 motor and 6 speed tranny and 4 wheel drive. I pulled a 30’ 5th wheel camper with no problem. The camper was about 8K pounds. I chose the gas motor because I wasn’t going to use the truck to pull a camper or big trailer every day. The diesel version was another $10K and it takes a long time to justify a diesels little bit better fuel mileage. So far the truck has been great. It is comfortable to ride in and will tote whatever you put behind it or in the bed. I pulled a gooseneck trailer loaded with 14 power poles. No rush, but no problem. The electric brake controller and the engine tranny did fine. The power window controls are susceptible to failure.

Needed the longer 6.5 bed, so went with the extended cab, couldn't work with the smaller bed, had a young son that could handle the smaller back seat, now he's grown, so bought a crew with a 6.5 bed. Works for me !

Recently purchased an 09 GMC 2500HD with the 6.6L Duramax diesel 4WD. Came from an 08 Toyota Tundra 5.7L and the GMC can not only haul twice the weight and tow 5000lbs more but it also rides smoother when empty. It returns 20mpg unloaded on the highway and the engine note is just enough to remind you that you're driving a diesel but quiet enough to be mistaken for a gasser. The interior is also a nicer place to be than in the Toyota, with more style and materials of a slightly higher quality. The Allison transmission is very smooth and always shifts at the right times. Test drove against the F250 and found the GMC a better all rounder, that stopped and accelerated better. Payload equal.

I have owned my gmc for 2 weeks now and i am glad to say i have made this decision. I have gotten the duramax and sllison combonation and it is unbelievable. I owned a 2002 chevrolet silverado 2500HD and needed to get a diesel. With this type of economy i figured that this is the time to act.We have gotten it for a respectable price. This truck is great to go through the dirt or just to drive around the city.
