      tbf he clearly stated that the trim level is determining the class it's meant for, there are still affordable price points, just not ones that include luxury like higher trims provide. Personally if I was spending that lumpsome of money, 13k is not a determining factor for a purchase im going to use for the next 10 years, especially if you are someone even in the bracket that can consider it.

    I love them all. I shopped Silverado ZR2 (76k), Sierra AT4X(82k )and AT4 (72k), Silverado High Country (71k) and Finally LTZ Silverado w/ Z71 package (64k). My first choice would have been AT4X but would have settled for the AT4 and almost bought it but dealer was still stiff arming me with the Trade for my 22 Tundra. I went with the LTZ since it was the most affordable AND the dealer gave me what I paid for the 22 Tundra a year prior AND I got 2.99% APR AND there was no “add ons” no “mark ups” not a single fee other than 300.00 dealer fee AND I got a life time powertrain warranty that also includes transmission. It was the deal I was seeking and couldn’t say no to. I got everything I wanted and saved thousands over the other deals. GMC Sierra is awesome but it is for the more “luxury” buyers. If money didn’t matter I would have the AT4X period. Like the general pool of truck buyers though, money does matter and therefore I’ll always have the Chevy. The more you spend on it the less you’ll want to “use” it anyway. The Silverado will work, the Sierra would shine like a Diamond in my drive way while I worship it’s beauty and pridefully pretend like I drive on mountains made of gold.

      @@corydelbiondo5773 Well it’s a bunch of little things that add up to a desire to be back in a GM truck. The seating position is better and more upright. The hood doesn’t blind me with glare from the sun. I love the radio controls on the back of the steering wheel. The remote start stays on when doors unlocked. The radio also stays on when truck is turned off till I open the door. The auto start stop button is easily within quick reach. Heated steering button is ON the steering wheel. Infotainment system is tilted towards me so it’s easy to see without glare. Larger windshield for better visibility. “Auto 4x4” for those snowy days where you don’t need 4x4 all the time. Tighter turning radius making it easier to park in a pinch. Also option for V8 or Diesel. List goes on. Metal bumpers instead of plastic. Rear bumper steps. Tow hooks. It’s almost like GM has been building trucks for over a hundred years or something.

      @@josephkraft5640 I had a pontiac grand prix years ago that was a piece of crap and part of the reason I switched to Toyota. My wife's 14 4runner and my previous 07 tundra were tanks compared to my 23 tundra. I keep my vehicles a long time and GM definitely did a better job or Toyota just dropped the ball all together. Crossing my fingers that by switching back to GM I'm not sacrificing too much reliability. Everything you mentioned and a few other things are what I also agree on. Add that to the hideous front end I felt I had to spend thousands on a lift, tires and paint match front end. My 23 at4 looks great and needs nothing as it is. I do think the cameras were better on my tundra. I still can't believe I bought a brand new tundra then traded it in 5 months later.

    Hey Tim, as always, love your videos. I had originally ordered a 2022 refresh GMC Sierra Denali (with Max Towing) and the Duramax. What GMC neglected to tell me until just before the truck arrived (6 month wait) that I couldn't get the Max Towing on the Denali ... so I walked away from that truck (a bit pissed). In Sept of last year, I ordered a 2023 Chevy Silverado High Country, with the Duramax and Max Towing. After a month, I inquired about the order .. and the dealer told me that Max Tow was on constraint, and they had no idea when I would get my truck. So ... I promptly cancelled that order. So frustrated with GM, I finally started to look at other options .. and finally picked up a used (very low mileage) 2019 Ford F150 Lariat, with the 3.5L Ecoboost and Max Towing .... I couldn't be more happy .... it is meeting my current towing needs. Yeah, it's not new .. but it was also almost $25K-30K less than what I was going to spend on the GMC or Chevy. So, this Ford will suit my purposes for the next few years until either GM gets their act together, or I totally fall in love with Ford and order a new F150. Time will tell.

    • @JesseLJohnson
      @JesseLJohnson ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The price is because it doesn't have the tail gate, the power steps, pretty sure his truck doesn't have adaptive cruise. The High Country can be equipped to be nearly as expensive as the Denali Ultimate. If he had more equipment to make it closer to the Denali the price would probably be in the $74-76k range. The High Country is more in line with the standard Denali. I was looking at both. Actually bought a 23 Ultimate yesterday. Can't pick it up till sometime next week probably. Have to get up with my insurance company and since I wrote a $85k check they wanted to make sure I had money for that check to clear before handing the truck over lol. I wanted the 6.2 though really and its the Duramax. Its pearl white which it seems they all are.

    I just traded my 23 tundra TRD off road premium in for a 23 Sierra at4 LZ0. I should have listened to your advise more about the tundra as you were spot on. It's a good truck but lots of cheap plastic, crappy infotainment, lack of easy bed access. I'm not one of these guys that constantly gets new vehicles. I keep mine for 10 years minimum. My last truck was an 07 tundra that I owned for 13 years. I felt I had to add too much in aftermarket items to my 23 tundra to make it feel like a real truck. The quality and fit and finish of the at4 feels night and day better for now. I love the LZ0. I paid a stupid tax getting rid of the tundra so soon but I'm so much happier.

  • @NMTRUCKER
    @NMTRUCKER ปีที่แล้ว +5

    So another comparison point for the viewers. I recently purchased a 2023 GMC SIERRA SLT With the LZ0 diesel for $66K. It has the X31 off road package, multipro tailgate, spray-in bed liner, 3.23 rear axle ratio, 20” all terrain tires. It has a similar interior layout as the High Country Silverado. Functionally it works the same as the GMC DENALI ULTIMATE but does not have; carbon bed, digital rear view mirror, heads-up display, upgraded seats, upgraded suspension. Over the first 2300 miles I am averaging 27 mpg. So the viewer needs to decide whether spending an additional $14K for the DENALI is worth the extra cost for better creature comforts?

    Another super fun video, thanks Tim. I much prefer the exterior styling of the GMC so I’d go that way. Although, I would get a lesser/different package (off road focused), but maintain all the features if that makes sense. Love the in-line diesel engine. For now, as I continue to drive on top of places like Imogene pass, Hurrah pass etc. I’ll stick with the power wagon… which incidentally does have the camera, rearview mirror, adaptive cruise control, heated/ventilated seats, large screen, upgraded audio system, etc. But that GMC sticker price, could likely not get passed that. I feel very fortunate I paid a reasonable price for my 2021 PW, which I ordered November 2020 (6K under sticker discount). If I ordered the same truck today, roughly $13,500 more (my discounted price vs. todays MSRP). High end trucks today is not affordable to the average working person as you mentioned, that is for certain.

      As much as I love my ‘19 PW, the 14 mpg I’m averaging right now on a 80 mile round trip commute is not great. The 3.0L Diesel is so temping - but so is an F150 PowerBoost. But the Ford seems boring coming from the PW. Sierra AT4 might be the answer for me. I do tow a 14’ enclosed trailer (dual axel cargo converted to a minimalist camper/dirt bike hauler) which the PW handles easily.

I really liked the colors they offer that you can only get with that trim. They had the tan and a brown and I think the other was red. Mine is the Ultimate and its pearl white with the Duramax.

    Tim, the Denali and High Country are more of a true comparison. The Denali can be ordered with what is now called the Reserve package (once called the ultimate package) which includes 22” Wheels, Review camera mirror, HUD, power assist steps, adaptive cruise and power sunroof for 5k. Both Denali and Ultimate have the adaptive ride control. I believe the High Country can also get adaptive ride control.

    Late to the game here, but for anyone considering these two as 2024's the only features you get in an Ultimate that you cannot add to a High Country are that alcantara headliner (your truck and the ones I looked at in person were a hot mess of glue on the alcantara), the carbonpro bedliner (which seems incompatible with nearly every bed accessory/tonneau), the kicker speakers in the tailgate, and the more adjustable massaging front seats.

    Great video Tim! I am interested in the Chevy, but have a few questions. You mentioned the suspension in the GMC is a Magnaride. Is the High Country suspension, the same suspension in the lower trims? Also, you mentioned the GMC had triple paned something which I assumed keeps the truck interior quieter. Is there a big difference in cabin interior sound?

    • @jakelee5456
      @jakelee5456 ปีที่แล้ว

      The High Country 1500 is available with four different suspensions. It comes standard with the Z82 tow package that most GM trucks have, but is available with Z71 off-road suspension, NHT max towing suspension, or Z45 adaptive (not magnetic) ride control suspension. Denali and Denali Ultimate 1500s come only with Z45. They all share the triple-sealed (two sets of weather stripping on the door, one on the body) inlaid doors, so the only major noise differences come down to tire choice.

    • @GotronFerret
      @GotronFerret ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Also worth noting, as of the 2023 MY, for the Silverado, the only way to get adaptive suspension is to option the 22" wheels, which is dumb since they kill the ride. The Denali offers Magnaride standard, meaning you can pair with 20" wheels. Otherwise you can pretty much option them about the same.
      The GMC is a bit quieter. And yes, you do pay for those upgrades vs the Chevy. Especially when it comes to dealer discounts, which can make the Chevy considerably cheaper and a better value.

    Hey Tim great video! I have a question though maybe you can answer (it's kind of related). I had been on the Chevy website "building" my truck (Silverado 1500 with the 3.0 diesel) off and on for a few months now but just recently I went on and it's no longer allowing me to select the "max tow package" option with the diesel - when I select it, it's telling me I have to switch to the 5.3 or the 6.2. But here's what's weird, when I go to the GMC website and do the exact same thing, I can still pick it with the diesel. I tried reaching out to Chevy through their virtual assistant messenger, but it was taking way too long to get a response. Do you have any insight on this as to what's happening? Thanks!

    Hey Tim, I ordered a High Country beginning of January and GM hasn’t picked the order up yet, so who knows how long it will be before I get it. But I ordered it with the 3.0 diesel loaded basically with the same magnetic ride and super cruise. So it would be a better comparison to the ultimate Denali, only difference is massaging seats some materials on interior and the 11 speaker Bose system.

      Dealers here have tons of trucks right now. I was told if I ordered a while back it would be at least 6 months. I went and bought a Denali Ultimate yesterday. The Chevy dealer 1/4 mile away had 1 High Country I think and a few LTZ. All the dealers here right now have tons of trucks in. Couldn't find anything forever unless it was stripped down cheaper models now they are finally showing up. Mine was built 3-14-23. Another GMC dealer I found had the twin to mine in a Yukon XL I want to go look at to as a replacement for my 19 Suburban but he tacked on $10k on top of the sticker price so guess they can keep it but its pearl white just that one is the 6.2 my new truck is a Duramax. Really wanted the 6.2 but seems damn near everything has the diesel.

      No. If you option the Z71 package, you will get the 9.5 rear and the two speed transfer case. If you option in the NHT Max Tow, you get the 9.76 rear, but lose the two speed transfer case in all trims except HC. Not 100% sure on the GMC side.

Not much difference at all . Both accelerate fine . Not fast by any means . For a truck not bad . These numbers are not towing . Now if your towing 9000 lbs the max tow gears might be even more of a gap in time 0 to 60 mph

    I was going to get a 2022/23 Silverado but due to the dealership shortcomings (lack of communication mostly, plus wanting $2k to put the order in) I ended up canceling that and ordering a Sierra 1500 Denali (not Ultimate). I don't want a sunroof in my truck. Which removed the Ultimate from consideration. Added the technology package, and went with the 6.2L v8 (hella FUN!). Took about four months for it to get into my hands with ALL the features included. Nothing removed due to chip shortages. 😁
    I really do like the interior styling for the top GMC trim levels. Silverado is the same across all trim levels (IMO, fail on Chevy side). The better suspension in the Denali line was also a draw for me. I don't go off roading with my truck, so the improved road ride quality is greatly appreciated.
    I ended up going with a lease on the new truck to get my payments even lower than for the 2020 Silverado LTZ Z71 I traded in. Changed insurance companies and my total cost is about $200 less per month for the Denali.
    At this point I cannot see ever going with a lower trim level truck. With the issues I faced with the Chevy dealership (I'm not the only person) and how great the GMC dealership was, I've switched. While the Chevy trucks are lower sticker price, I fully believe that you get more truck value with the GMC trucks. Especially with the Denali trims. I also appreciate how the quality of people working at the [local] GMC dealership just seem to be at a higher level of professionalism when compared with the Chevy dealership. While there ARE good people working at the Chevy dealership, there are ones that also fall short. My last two truck purchases at the Chevy dealership were not of the same level (sales person) as the first one I went through.

I had 5 tundras prior to the GMC, still have my 2017 Tundra Platinum. The GMC is a more comfortable and to many a better truck in almost every way. The big difference is the Tundra with 157,000 miles is still rattle free, tight and “drives” better than the GMC AT4. When I say drives better what I am referring is two major things that the Tundra has the GMC beat, turning radius, and throttle response. The GMC throttle response is what I would consider terrible. Tim please get your diesel to speed and then mash the pedal as you would if you needed to pass someone, the programming for the throttle response has a solid 2-3 second delay. No doubt the $72K AT4 is a beautiful truck but as soon as the new truck wow factor wears off after a few months you start looking at driving experience, the old Tundra beats it every time.

I like the AT4/Denali dash better, and honestly, I think it looks better-the Trail Boss has the dumb Trail Boss stickers on the bed and the taped on fake hood scoop and think the GMC looks more adult. The one thing I would have liked that I couldn’t get on the AT4 is the pearl white paint that can now be had on the Trail Boss.

      I’m thinking of either an at4 or a trail boss. Which powertrain did you get? How do you like the truck so far

      @@carbb5760 I got the Duramax-first diesel I’ve owned (driven plenty) and I’m very pleased with it. It has effortless power and after about 1250 miles, I’m regularly getting well above EPA mileage. The first tank (which included lots of idling and test drives from the dealer, but only 8 miles on the odometer) averaged 24.1mpg, the second tank averaged an even 25mpg, I’m a little over 200 miles into the third tank and I’m averaging in the high 28mpg range. I have the standard bed and 20” wheels.
      I am a bit surprised by the DEF consumption though. I’m 3 bars down out of 8 with only 1250 miles on it. If that usage amount continues, I’ll only get a little over 3,000 miles per DEF tank, which works out to 600mpg-that’s not towing.
      I think the seats are the same as the High Country and Denali (different color of course) but because of the flat bottom, they feel a little firm-they could use some seat-bottom dishing to more evenly load your butt, but all of the Sierra’s and Silverado’s use the same seat shape. Another small gripe is the suspension, for being “off-road”, it still feels a little stiff and jittery over some bumps-18” wheels would probably help this some.
      I like the AT4/Denali dash/console better than the standard Sierra’s and all Silverado’s. The 360 view, ultrasonic parking sensors, and other camera’s are all almost necessary because visibility in tight quarters isn’t the best, but with all of the assistance those features provide, getting into tight spaces is pretty easy.
      It’s still new with few miles but so far, I’m really enjoying it and am thoroughly impressed.

      @@lewiswatchorn7239 thanks for the detailed info. Ya I’m going to go drive the diesel next weekend and see how it is, I had been dead set on the 6.2l but it seems to be much less common and drives the price up quite a bit. The mpg info is super useful. Congrats and enjoy the truck!

    GMC is asking stupid money for the few additions in the Ultimate version.
