2005 GMC Sierra SLE 2 review from North America
"Absolutely awesome truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no problems with my truck thus far.
General comments?
This has been the best truck I have owned to date.
The crew cab makes for plenty of room for everyone.
Auto 4x4 option has been handy for Alaska winters.
"Good" gas mileage considering you're running with a V8.
Tows my travel trailer like it is not even back there.
Payload/Power is outstanding; a bed full of top soil and 4 passengers and still had the power to pass the "slow guy."
Auto dual climate controls allow my wife and I to be comfortable.
Z71 is great in off road terrain and handles like a truck should; a truck.
I would not hesitate to buy another GM truck product.
Hope this truck lasts as long as my 1976 Chevy pickup that I am fixing-up.
