GMC Sierra Overview
The GMC Sierra is a series of full-size and heavy-duty pickup trucks manufactured by General Motors. It’s essentially GMC’s counterpart to the Chevrolet Silverado, with both vehicles sharing much of their underpinnings and architecture, but often with different trim and feature options.
The Sierra name has been used by GMC since the late 20th century. Before the late 1980s, “Sierra” was a trim level of GMC trucks. However, starting in 1988, it became the name for GMC’s full-size pickup, replacing the previous GMC C/K nomenclature.
The current Sierra is available in three cab styles: regular cab, extended cab, and crew cab. It is also available in two bed lengths: 5.8 feet and 6.6 feet. The Sierra is available with a choice of six engines: a 4.3L V6 engine, a 5.3L V8 engine, a 6.2L V8 engine, a 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder engine, a 3.0L inline-six turbodiesel engine, and a 3.0L inline-six turbodiesel engine with mild-hybrid assist. It is available in both rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive configurations.
The Sierra is known for its towing capacity. It can tow up to 14,500 pounds with the 6.2L V8 engine. It is also known for its off-road capability. It is available with features like hill descent control and skid plates. The Sierra comes standard with a variety of features, including a rearview camera, power windows and locks, and a six-speaker sound system. Available features include a sunroof, a leather interior, and a Bose sound system.
The GMC Sierra primarily competes with other full-size trucks such as the Ford F-Series, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra, and its sibling, the Chevrolet Silverado. Apart from the standard Sierra 1500, GMC also offers heavy-duty versions, namely the Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD, built to handle even more rugged tasks and heavy towing duties.
