Best truck I've ever owned.

Wasn't much of a truck guy until I bought the 2012 GMC Sierra Z71 (Rocky Ridge Edition) and I gotta say, I love driving it!

GMC 1500 W/T

This truck was what I was looking for. 8ft bed extra cabs are hard to find, for a used truck very nice condition, so far a real nice truck.

Most comfortable truck I ever owned

Sierra Denali, best truck bar none. Best performance, comfort and looks, other than fuel mileage it's a 10 but I did get 6.2 which has tons of power and I my opinion it's worth it.

Great everyday truck

I love my Texas edition GMC Sierra 1500 with extended cab. I made the switch from ford to gmc and immediately noticed the handling was much better, received better gas mileage with the gm v-8 over the ford v-8, also the truck tows just about anything effortlessly. I am glad I have converted to gm and look forward to purchasing another vehicle when it comes time.

Best Pickup I have Owned. GMC SLT

I have had several trucks in the past 20 years ranging from Chevrolets, Ford etc. I bought this truck used with 21,000 miles on it and the previous owners took great care of it. I use it to haul my 21 foot travel trailer, and my 15 foot boat w/ trailer. The trailer package is GREAT!!! The vehicle handles very well in any road condition including snow and icy roads. Creature comforts such as seat heaters and great interior lighting makes it more comfortable for drivers as well as passengers . Reliability is very good as have now had the vehicle for 25,000 miles and have just done maintenance as required and starts and runs great at 115 degrees as well as -40 degrees living here in Montana. It is two wheel drive with locking rear axle and drives well off road in dirt and sand and over rocks with adequate ground clearance and tows very well with more than adequate power with the 5.3 V8 engine. Gas mileage has been good as it gets 24 mpg on highways and with trailer in tow 17 to 18 mpg. It has never been under powered even going over Montana passes. The GM optional Borla exhaust CAT back system has a nice tone to it but adds 10 more additional horsepower to it as well. Everything from rear view camera, heated seats, good visability, sound system, to a firm but comfortable controlled ride is why I like this vehicle

Best truck for the money

Great all around work truck. Can pull everything I need to and still efficient fuel mileage while doing it. Tons of room for my family and the 4x4 is amazing here in MT. Safe, reliable and dependable truck.
