2006 GMC Sierra Denali review from North America
"GMC is still the king of the trucks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet.
General comments?
The epitome of trucks. I love that these are not everywhere like the Yukon Denali.
This thing wants for nothing, I'd rather have it than any Caddy or Lincoln.
The Vortec Max engine is a powerhouse, and while it was quite thirsty while pulling a 7,000 lb trailer, I have managed 19-20 MPG on a road trip.
While the AWD system is great, it would be nice if it could be turned off when I want.
I still own my "previous vehicle" 1994 Silverado, and while it is a great truck, compared to the Denali it seems like a bucket of bolts.
