2009 GMC Sierra 1500 consumer reviews

I love the look of the truck . I have so much trouble with oil pressure dropping and can?t drive the truck . You can change oil and oil filter it will run two months . And it then does it again . You tell us what?s happening to this truck . We changed oil resending unit . We are taking it to chev dealer to see if they can find what?s causing it . Just can?t trust the truck the way it is

I love Chevy, they basically crush the truck marketmarket. The 5.3 and 6 engines are absolutely amazing and rarely have issues. I would highly recommend this truck.

I owned a Sierra before so very similar to that truck. Needed another work truck and I always go Chevrolet or GMC. Will be a great investment for my business!!

Impressed by how smooth the 6L80 is and how it works well with this 5.3. Truck is quiet going down the road and smooth. Ive owned an 03 and an 06 Prior that were great trucks so hoping for the same out of this one.

I bought a used 2009 GMC Sierra with only 58,000 miles on it. The truck has great power going up hill (I live in the mountains) and the ride is very smooth. The leather seats are very comfortable and the cabin is roomy with plenty of leg room for the driver and passengers. My truck performs great and it also looks good! I am very happy with my purchase.

I purchased the 2009 GMC Sierra brand new and I have loved it all the way! The vehicle is very comfortable but I feel as though the seats can use some adjusting in terms of firmness. The cab is extremely quiet with minimal road noise. I honestly have to turn on the radio to keep from falling asleep because the drive is so smooth and quiet. Performance is a big seller for trucks, well the GMC Sierra is not lacking. I drive the 4.3 liter V6 and I am very satisfied with it. It tows well and can get up and go when you stomp the gas pedal. However my single cab is very light in the rear end so there is not very good grip on the ground allowing for occasional slippage. I am in love with the exterior styling! I think it is spunky and tough looking yet subtle enough to blend in with the parking lot if thats what you want. The interior design is the only aspect that is truly lacking. The interior was designed for a working atmosphere with easy to use controls for those wearing gloves. So of course there is not much chrome or wood accents. This truck is definitely worth the price. It is very affordable for something so great. This truck is very reliable. I have never had a single issue with this truck for the five years I have owned it. Everything works like its brand new and no matter how cold or how hot it starts right up.

Purchased new 2009 SL extended cab in April 2010. Was initially impressed with power and extremely quiet cabin for a pickup. 3+ years later I am very pleased and the truck has run perfectly. Obvious downside is fuel mileage, but I knew that going in. Runs true to advertised fuel mileage. Tows my 18 foot bass boat as if it's not even there. Interior is not exciting but it isn't intended to be. Handles well for a vehicle of this size, even in city driving. Overall it has probably been the most reliable and trustworthy vehicle I have owned (of 5). Still looks great after 4 years since it was built.

Great vehicle all the way around! It has lots of power with the sporty look. Does great on the highway. I'm in love with my truck.

We had a 2007 Sierra 1500, decided to buy the 2009 Denali version. Unfortunatly, the 2007 was a smoother ride. The 2009 has no better features to me and I guess after driving the 2007 I am not happy with how "truck like" the ride is. Also, I find the seats very uncomfortable, maybe it's just me, but I do drive for hours at a time. HORRIBLE on gas as you can expect, but overall it is a good and reliable truck.

Bought it used in Janurary of 2012. Stepped up from a Nissan Xterra. The gmc is 10 times more comfortable. In city economy is not all that bad I average 14.6mpg which is expected from a truck this size. Took a trip last month to vermont for the weekend had 5 people including myself in the cab and all of our snowboard gear in the bed and averaged 20mpg the whole trip. I have the 5.3 and 4spd tranny. I prefer it to the 6 speed, no gear hunting and plenty of power. Shifts when it should and doesn't complain. Towed 8,000lbs with it. Did fine no hesitation or complaning except the suspension is a little softer then I hoped for once you put some solid weight behind it. Great truck will definetely get another.
