The Ultimate Half-Ton AT4x From GMC and AEV

GMC is keeping the hits coming with the new Sierra AT4x AEV edition. Complete with 33 inch tires, rock sliders, front and rear lockers, DSSV Multimatic dampers, front and rear AEV steel bumpers, and more, this is the ultimate overland half-ton realized.

Wonderful video, concise and well put together! Thank you for staying relevant.

Very nice truck that costs a small fortune. If you add a diesel the short-term _AND_ long-term cost will climb, while the payload goes down.

Love my AT4X with the 3.0l duramax. It’s a beast here in Colorado at 9000 Ft. Paying 2.97/ gal getting 600 miles each tank.

Wonderful review...

[@CJ-rk5eg]

Love your honest review. Only thing missing was the MSRP as equipped with AEV?

[@VDawg-cr1gb]

It’s a beautiful truck……..shoulda been engineered with 35s from the start

[@akendon7260]

Exactly.

[@Luke-zj3jr]

Is this 2” taller than the regular at4 (an x31 package) or just the same 2” standard off road suspension lift with the multimatic shocks instead? I’ve always wondered.

[@johnmarks3303]

Same 2 in lift as AT4 tires a tiny bit taller tire than a AT4

🤔I'm Wonder About A GMC - AT4X...
A 1500 Has FRONT & REAR LOCKING DIFFERENTIALS... But The 2500HD Does NOT Have FRONT LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL🤷... I Read Or Heard The FRONT DIFF On The 2500HD Is An OPEN DIFF🤔... How Would That Work For The 4 Wheel Drive System For The Truck?..
The 2500HD Has A Rear Locking DIFF...So If Engaged...And In 4WD Mode... Would It Basically Be 3 Wheel Drive?🤔...
Opposed To Having A LOCKING FRONT DIFF To Go Along With The REAR LOCKING DIFF Which Would Be 2 Locked Axels /4 Wheels Spinning?...
Someone Said That The GMC -OFF ROAD MODE - Takes Care Of 95% Of What A LOCKED FRONT DIFF Does🤔..I Heard Someone In The Background say"He's Trying To Sell it"🤷...
🤔Thinking.. maybe that or maybe Just Buying A 2500 maybe in Denial🤔... Or Subconciously Trying To Protect Himself And Heart From Being Heartbroken , Finding Out That It Doesn't Have A LOCKING FRONT DIFF Like The 1500 AT4X Does🤔....🤷
Is it possible to have an open front diff that is I guess -automatic or computerized locking system -?...
I Was interested In The GMC AT4X At First..But Then Payload..Had To Go HD... And The GMC AT4X 2500HD Again Doesn't Have The FRONT LOCKERS🤷..So Than I Bumped Into A RAM POWER WAGON 2500😱 ... Which comes with FRONT & REAR LOCKING DIFFS😱😎👍...
I had A 91 Blazer...I Dont Want To Get Stuck In Less Than A Half Inch Of Sand On The Side Of The Road🤷

This is all cool stuff but who can justify the price? Cool is only worth so much.

[@ExpeditionPortal]

Unfortunately, everything has become expensive.

[@PatrickRich]

Low Payload half ton seems sorta pointless. You have more passenger and cargo volume but not the ability to carry bigger things. The extra space is nice but it also means extra truck on the trail. To me the whole point of a bigger vehicle is to carry a better home away from home. Bigger slidein, bigger trailer, etc. You're going to have to go pretty lightweight.

[@JeremyMN]

Id Probably Go With A At4X But DON'T Want The Crew Cab Or Short Bed 🤷...
I Want A Double Cab And Standard Bed Pick Up With Front And Rear Locking Differentials 🤷
Why Does Everyone Want To Be A Shelby Or whatever that is?!🤷
...It Used To Be Mostly Double Cab Standard Bed Pick Up Trucks on The Road🤷...
Now It's All Crazy Short Beds And Humongous Crew Cabs🤷

[@whocaresjustdoit]

I don’t get how this truck has the same payload as the Colorado ZR2 Bison….Idk the payload defeats the purpose of a half ton pickup. Even the TRX and the Raptor retain above 1300 lbs payload while being monstrously capable. This truck is pretty much like the Ram PW 😅. Built for adventure but can’t carry anything on a trip.
Nice truck with front and rear lockers and all but I think the whole package is not that useful.

[@johnwoodyear]

Payload is 1290 lbs so should be okay

[@ExpeditionPortal]

It was 1,020 pounds on the door sticker

[@Beardinc]

Too bad you can't get it in a single cab

[@ExpeditionPortal]

Oh man! You and me both! single cab with an 8' bed would be incredible.
