I just took delivery of the 2024 GMC HD AT4 Duramax 3500. This is my 5th HD truck that I have owned, and all I can say is WOW!! It is so nice, it rides like a half ton and this new upgraded Duramax is great. Lots of low-end power compared to the older models. It is hard to describe, you will just have to drive one to get this WOW feeling. GM knocked it out of the park on this one.
Love the gas version don't need a diesel. Great video as always. In the future when you review vehicles can you also pop open the hood and do a scan of the engine compartment just like to see how the layout is of the motors. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for the videos.
I’m a Ram kinda guy since 2009 model years but to not admit GMC stepped up the game would be a disservice! That truck is BEAUTIFUL inside and out!! Just wish this brute would fit inside my garage because I would hands down be ordering one today!!
Just had mine built last Monday! So glad you were finally able to review my truck! Got the exact same specs on it. IF I wanted to complain, id say im sad there is no super cruise even though they have it in the 1500s... and the color options suck. I wanted a maroon color. Also weird that the cup holder seems far. But honestly I LOVE the truck and im so excited to get it hopefully the end of next month!!!!
I just bought the exact truck today. It's an absolute badass beast. Pick it up Friday when it's registered. Videos don't do this truck justice. It's unbelievable in person. I will say I did test drive a 2500 diesel a couple months back. The diesel feels way stronger. I'm getting the Pulsar LT to hopefully make it feel more responsive.
I am not 100% sure, but I believe the fender flare lights are required in some states. Smaller body mounted LED lights should have been installed instead. That is one badass truck. Great review. Thanks.
The lights on the fenders were why I ordered a 2022 Chevy with the Z71 sport over the GMC. LIKED GMC grill better but just couldn’t do the fender lights.
Love this truck but I’m still having a hard time deciding if I like the head lights and tail lights, they remind me of the ebay aftermarket lights but then again those do look pretty neat at times 😂
Every GMC AT4 I've seen a pic of including on the GMC BUild and Price software shows a 9-spoke wheel as standard. However, in the option details it's referenced as an 8-spoke wheel. What's this all about?
Beautiful truck! IMO black wheels suck unless you are 10 feet away or closer. Any farther away than that and they lose all definition. The interior looks great! My only complaint, and it's really nitpicking, is the upper glovebox door doesn't have any dampening. I've watched a lot of reviews of the new interior and every time they go to open it I cringe. Maybe it's just me?
GCWR, Payload and Tow Rating? Had been looking at a Denali (not Ultimate). I'm starting to like the AT4 better, provided that it'll pull as well as the Denali.
I don’t understand the argument here it’s real simple. If you’re gonna use this as a work truck constantly towing using payload every day you’re going up and down hills obviously diesel is superior but if you’re going to use it to pull some toys around a toy hauler maybe once every few months it’s gas hands down that it’s a no-brainer because there is a big price difference on those two vehicles.
Great review on this awesome truck, I was all excited when you said the price I thought this was a diesel at that price. Oh well just wait for the deprecation takes its toll.
They still have a censor issue, purchased my first GMC Sierra 2500 HD AT4 on 10/31/23. When I was finally able to pick it up from dealer, drove it home, next day check engine light came on,e on. Bad censor. None found in the US, GMC has been aware of the censor issue for 2 years. Was told tentative repair date was 12/15/23, but told today new tentative date is 12/29/23, a day after we were to leave for Florida…. Case Managers always end the conversation with: Welcome to the GMC Family, well to be honest, i don’t want to be part of a family who treats the consumer this way. First and Last GMC purchase.
I would like to tell you that if you have a trailer ball installed in the hitch when the tailgate step is lowered it will hit the ball and put a dent in the tailgate which will show when you shut the tailgate. GM needs to put warning about this on the tailgate that shows before the step is lowered. It should also be included in the Owner's Manual. You would think that GM would have caught this problem before letting the trucks go for sale. I sure would not want a dent in my tailgate on that expensive truck.
Just a question Brian. Haven’t seen anything other than black or white 2024’s built. I ordered end of January from my local dealer but haven’t received any confirmation on build. Titanium rush metallic. What’s your thought on production by color?
Is this a 6 1/2 foot bed, or is this one an 8 foot bed? Also, you forgot to mention the wireless charger at that center console. It's not a big deal, I just wanted to let you know.
I don’t know if this is an AT4 issue, but my 2 year old 1500 AT4 drivers side A-arm ball joint just broke. The A-arm cracked and split while I was on the road. LF wheel cocked 45 degrees and stranded me on the interstate and my family. If a driver that wasn’t as experienced as me was driving it could have been deadly. Dealership said this is the 2nd one that they have had to replace. I am thinking of going to a different manufacturer set-up. The aftermarket AT4 looks weak compared to a BDS or similar. Pretty sure the 2500 has torsion springs and no upper A-arm. But I am not impressed with the 1500 AT4.
Not an Allison. GM paid Allison for the right to use the name. I called Allison and verified this. Last true Allison was in 2019 and was the series 1000 6 speed.
The brake controller placement is terrible. It's not to be used unless the vehicle is stationary, thus the immediate reach of it vs cup holder/ junk storage will be a regret of buyers. Also in transit, the gain only gets adjusted a couple of times when going from in town to interstate driving. Let alone this is just for the center console models, which i would argue are for hobbyist that don't pull very often. Seems like a good fidget toy for young adult drivers.
@@Lunarklypse 🤣. The diesel is superior for towing; higher torque, max torque occurs much lower in the power band, superior fuel economy, greater down hill engine braking capability saves brakes, increases safety and significant greater longevity. That is why the majority of semi trucks use diesel engines, not gas engines.
@@icare7151 well then if you knew that the at4 hd 2500 gas tow 18,100 diesel only 17300 mpg barely even noticed a difference with the new transmission and by the way why mention semi trucks when this is about an hd truck? I see you haven’t done your research but that’s fine you buy what you like and I get what I like.
@@Lunarklypse I own Diesel HD trucks and HD gas trucks. Our diesel trucks are superior. The diesel engine weighs more thus towing capacity can be less. Our real world data shows I am 💯 correct.
@@icare7151 still are you not listening I’m talking about this truck not any other truck unless you got a fleet of these hd at4 2500 trucks that’s what I’m talking about no other truck period
Someone that doesn't want to spend 10k more for the diesel, spend the price of a gas engine on diesel injectors replacement, and the additional cost of def and regular fuel filter changes. Regens are a giant pain in the ass too. For the recreational tower gas has diesel beat hands down.
lmao! I think the hood line needs to be higher. ffs why are they doing this with trucks? people like horrible forward visibility? guys with small wieners? saw a guy with one of these drive right into a small trailer someone ahead of him was towing because "he forgot it was there" and couldn't see it when at a red light behind the trailer. how many kids are going to get run over by these things?
This is mind boggling honestly. Even Toyota who is late to the game on everything they do in the truck segment managed to get a pano roof in the tundra before GM could

They make pulsar for MY24?
@@justinb8584 no not yet but I saw on another GMC forum it should be offered in a few months.
Super nice rig,but for the at4 the color brown inserts and the stitching should be Red like the tow hook and the Gmc logo.
I am not 100% sure, but I believe the fender flare lights are required in some states. Smaller body mounted LED lights should have been installed instead. That is one badass truck. Great review. Thanks.
It the vehicle is 80 inches or wider the dot mandates that the truck must be equipped with marker lights.
Negative. The chevy models do not have these, they are strictly for looks and are not a requirement
@@Oddtodd2448 Thanks for the info Todd.
Sure do wish you could get that column shifter in the 1500
Put the truck in gear and then look at screen!!!! Blocks view - BAD DESIGN there
I like the symmetrical wheel openings a lot better than my 1500.
Lol nope
I love that truck I like the color of the truck and everything about it. That is a very nice truck that is well worth over $80,000.
Infotainment screen should be higher - closer to the drivers line-of sight and the vents below.
We want to see the towing and payload numbers! Show us the stickers on the driver door jamb!
Exactly !
I believe towing is 18,500

How is the ar controlled to the back seat. I dont recall seeing a way to adjust the airflow in the back?
Thanks

If only the wheels had some silver on them. That would give it a little contrast. Or if they were gray gunmetal.
What are the diesel engine specs?
MPG? Great video!
Brian- do you know of where we could pick up a set of the smoked out fender lights?
Nice rig...is the bed on this one 6'6"? Also what suspension is on this? ...looked like Rancho (😢)shocks as the camera panned by
I think the bed 6'9" or 6'10"
GCWR, Payload and Tow Rating? Had been looking at a Denali (not Ultimate). I'm starting to like the AT4 better, provided that it'll pull as well as the Denali.
Needs nurf bars and toolbox yes white doesn't show dirt as bad also needs protection for backseat for my German Shepherd
Just ordered one but I wish you could have a carpet delete as an option
I gotta have one of this 😊
At 10:10 the 'red' at the bottom on the gauge cluster went away. Why?
Nice truck, I have the summit white on order and can't wait to get it!
Looks great but I don’t like the leather and it doesn’t come with the option 6 seater ! Bummer
Nice truck nice interior but I feel like the shift level is to out dated for such a beautiful truck

Placed an order for this as a 3500 in white with the gasser
Super Nice Truck, but you didn't show the front floor boards or the engine. Everybody shows the back and not the front. Why?
I don’t find much price difference between 1500 and 2500
i like these dash lay out better then the silverado
Agree. Vent placement is much better. Notice how it’s not behind the steering wheel like Chevy?

Get a correct ball hitch. I don't have problem with mine.
@@MarkoJosic I have the correct ball hitch that I need for my horse trailer and the tailgate step WILL hit it!

MAC/APPLE screen shot is Shift+Command+3
By the way I could not see the window sticker. Looks like your camera is too blurry cleaning the lenses
This is my dream truck
In love with this new interior! But $75k for a gas truck is a bit steep 😬
Dollar is shit...
$75k for a gas truck of this size is a steal bro. F150s are running like $80k+ lol
@@JokerG16 WOW, talk about missing the point.... These same trucks like 5 or 6 years ago were half the price...
True I can get this same truck diesel for 75k now that’s a good deal
Great review. Now I want one. 😊
I’d buy one in the next 3 months if I can get in under 80k
believe chevy looks cleaner in the front.
I’m ordering one is these soon
Was wandering what payload and tow capacity were.
Is this truck has differential lock..??
She's so purdddy 🤩
Is it 2” higher compared to the Denali Ultimate?
No no lift on hd truck at4
Just a question Brian. Haven’t seen anything other than black or white 2024’s built. I ordered end of January from my local dealer but haven’t received any confirmation on build. Titanium rush metallic. What’s your thought on production by color?
Gotta call the allocation manager for the dealership of choices they’d be able to tell you exact info
I ordered my 2024 Denali with Titanium Rush Metallic on February 27 and it came in May 1.

It’s the 6.75 ft bed. You can’t mistake the 8footer

Do you have a at4 with these options available in a 6.6 duramax? If so what’s the msrp
On it?
Add about 10k for the diesel option
@@itzmurphyleetry add 20k
Did they give up on the console shifter?
GM HDs never had a console shifter. I actually like it better on the column.
Key differences vs. Denali model?
Beautifull truck problem is out of reach price wise for most people
@7:33 it's just AT4 not AT4X...
74k? And a AT4 in my location is 80k
