2013 GMC Sierra 1500 Powertrain: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2014 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 420-horsepower 6.2L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD w/low range |
Took this trip on a ski trip and drove to Jasper in two wheel drive. No issues and great fuel economy. According to the truck readout, I averaged 12.8 litres per 100 km driving at 124 kph. On the return trip, the roads were snow and ice covered with only one lane cleared (divided highway). I had the truck in the auto setting and there were no issues with traction. I was able to drive the snow and ice covered lanes with no difficulty. I found the Denali to be well planted and stable. I would also like to mention that the truck is also equipped with Blizaak winter tires which also contributed to the good performance. My return trip fuel economy was 13.5 litres per 100 km at an average speed of 120 kph. see full GMC Sierra 1500 review |
