2016/2017 GMC Denali HD..What they're not telling you!

[@seagrass7125]

Is this the CNN of truck reviews?

[@seagrass7125]

I agree both fake AF

[@JB-bm4hx]

Hahaha 😂

[@keaton7511]

@@seagrass7125 this is actually diabolical 😂

[@fiveoaksfarmofgeorgia7605]

LOL... I own a 2019 3500HD Denali currently, and have had GM HD's since 2003. Never had a single issue. You got me though. I was looking at all the features you were pointing out and I was like "I've never seen that on a GM." Then, you showed the front suspension, and I was like "the reason I love GM is that they DON'T have a solid front axle." And then I was like, "That's a ford mirror." "That's a Ford bed." LOL... got 'eem!

[@marckosmo9614]

Typical Ford guy, spending most of his time on his hands and knees. The best movie twist though.

[@markuswhitworth77]

This guy is the Karen of truck reviewers

[@TuffXy]

Lmao u must not have watched the ending

[@smcox1991]

What was the point of this video?

[@BTBRVReviews]

Man, I'm getting a ton of thumbs down........I guess I can't hold anyone's attention for beyond 3mins.

[@DrinkWhiskeyRaiseHell]

It was just a waste of time...

[@BTBRVReviews]

BTown830: Yeah, I agree.....but sometimes we need something to waste our time......relax and take a break

[@chilibiskit14]

+Big Truck Big RV don't fret man, you're good haha

[@tonedox1]

I would die of laughter if anyone watched this “entire” video and traded in their GMC for a Ford! 🤣

[@FloridaRaised1]

When saw the suspension leafs it gave it away! The Sierra HD is a solid truck! Lol ford guys were happy for a second!

[@swiftsroofingandrepairs6151]

Definitely a ford lover! 😂 I have a 2015 2500HD Denali HD and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Has a lot of power and I love all the options. DONT BUY A FORD. TRUST ME.

[@benruzicka2100]

Literally have my dads 2017 HD Duramax Sierra in the driveway and watched this till the end in shock. I'm embarrassed lol. Nice video.

[@ju1c3--77]

Rumor has it(he’s a ford salesman)

[@nyarnell1]

This video is sponsored by Ford. To bad GM makes a better product that lasts unlike your Ford. Dropping transmissions, death wobble, motors blowing up etc...

[@xourheartsdesire]

This guy loves dudes that’s why he likes fords

[@JoseRivera-lk4cz]

I TAKE A BULLET BEFORE I BUY A FORD

[@godwhomismike]

That is some epic trolling right there. Had me till the end.

[@COPOKurt]

I got so excited when I saw the solid front axle. I quit watching the video before finding out it was a Ford... and ran to the local gm dealership and crawled under 4 different hds finding they all had ifs came home depressed and continued to watch the video.

[@vulpixgrant]

Lol looks like I am on of the few that watched to the last few seconds ;-)

[@theyoungoutdoorsman8252]

All these people hating and didn't watch the whole vid, I laughed my ass off great vid 👍🏻

[@davidsanderson5466]

Also noticed that the denali at the center of the hood , you can see the sheet metal vibrate/move when rough roads were driven on.

[@SuperUriel420]

knew it was a troll when you showed the mirror lol good one!

[@TheRealJRC]

LOL - I wouldn't own a ford ever again. After two 6.0 Diesels - never again. Bro and I just ordered two Denali HD L5P's. Interior of GMC is far superior to Ford's plastic covered interior and the ride quality is also superior. I don't even need to mention the price difference between Denali and Platinum - enough to buy a second used vehicle to have as a daily driver. L5P blows the Ford 6.7 out of the water on acceleration and MPG. Ford only wins on towing but I don't need to be able to move a church from one spot to another so 23k pounds is plenty. Great video.

[@univ1776]

Every clip gave it away. I own this truck and nothing looked familiar. Nice!

[@mikemichaels1509]

gmc trucks...simply the best

[@rogerbrandt6678]

You had me fooled, I'm a steel worker, worker in the lab also, and you can't compare size of axle or sound when banging, as you can go a lot thinner with stronger steel, unless you have the mill specs it's really not a fair comparison, also if you take the same steel, I.e, frame, and put a couple of bends in it it increases the strength exponential, also with the door if you put a bracket Behind the door it will sound more solid, so all depends where you hit it, love your videos wish you would do a video of what you like in the Denali.

[@frankwalker9078]

LOL... Just reading some of the comments. Good job. Just proves that most people only read half the story. 👍☺☺

[@dani4eg]

Also most people don't know their own trucks:)))

[@SF-fm7ov]

He was being facetious (kidding). He has shown in other videos that he likes GM's Independant front suspension better. It was a spoof that most seemed to have missed. He actually makes great videos and lays things out very clearly but since this one wasn't seen for what it was, I'd kind of say it backfired.

[@Pilotc180]

This guy has to be a woke democrat Biden supporter

[@adolfoabhurtadoc6106]

Sorry my ignorance, but what is the problem with the rear axel?

[@BTBRVReviews]

adolfo abhurtadoc: watch the very end and I explain what's wrong

[@erikgarcia3778]

GMC the straight truck 😎 Ford finally came out of the garage 😂

[@FJBandtheHO]

I wish KZbin didn’t turn off how many dislikes 👎 😂. I have a 2015 3500 with 405,000 miles that tows every day like a champ.

[@BTBRVReviews]

You obviously didn't watch the end lol

[@rogerbrandt6678]

Lot of knowledgeable guys here, what of the big 3 diesels, in 3/4 tons get the best mileage, and what do they get nowadays, my lbz gave me around 19 on the highway with bigger tires, 265/75/16.

[@BTBRVReviews]

roger brandt: Most are about the same... Driving behavior, altitude, load, wind speed/direction (more than anything), Humidity, temperature, tire size, air resistance, mods (light bars, racks, brush guard) and slope all greatly effect MPGs. A light bar up front actually has more of a negative impact of MPGs than tire size believe it or not. How wind transfers around the surface of the vehicle (co-efficient) is the single most impactful force against your vehicle. So......all that nerd stuff out of the way.... most get between 12-14 unloaded City, 17-18 unloaded hwy, and 11-13 Loaded City and 12-14 loaded hwy...... That's what I've observed

[@rogerbrandt6678]

+Big Truck Big RV when I had the tires that came with my 2500 Silverado, 2006 at 60,000km believe it or not I was getting 26 mpg,, hand calculated, doing 65mph in the Rocky Mountains. They were small tires 245/65/16.

[@rogerbrandt6678]

+Big Truck Big RV also is that 17-18 mpg doing 75mph.? You guys are soooo lucky. Most places here 60mph.

[@Bruin1010]

It's not April fools day yet! But you got me!

[@tapman1277]

Thumbs up, because I own a Ford and I watched until the end. :-)

[@Kickinpony66]

I'm TORN... I own a 1996 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4, a 1998 Jeep Wrangler, and a 1972 Ford F-250 Hi-Boy. I believe I have to DISLIKE this video, because Chevy/GMC used to be the "Mark" of "Truckbuilding".

[@BTBRVReviews]

+Kickinpony.66: so did you end up disliking my video?

[@Kickinpony66]

I did, but not because I didn't "like" it. It's a great video! But, I had to "dislike", because of what looks like "cheap GM stuff".

[@BTBRVReviews]

Kickinpony.66; not sure I understand, but ok

[@Kickinpony66]

I gave the video a Thumbs Down, because of the Denali. Other than that, great video! :)

[@JeffInDFW]

The real shame is, nobody (including me) got that this was done as a joke. I am in the market for a 3-6 year old HD truck and came here because BTBRV is one of the channels I value the opinion of. After watching the first half, I moved on to learn more about Ford and Ram since GMC "sucked" so badly. But then it clicked on me, "Wait....GM is still using IFS" and came back to rewatch this and kept going to see what else he got wrong.....This time making it to the end and finding out he was showing a Ford the entire time. People are not watching to the end and you are doing a real disservice to your audience who are not coming here for comedy. 7 years later people still aren't getting that this is a joke.

[@jacobstahl2245]

This is sarcasm taken to another level!!

[@tombrady9385]

The reason GM use thinner leaf spring is because GM use vibranium metal made of the same material Captain America shields is. The strongest metal in the world.

[@aronjohn84]

Bro.. it was a ford he was talking about ..lol

[@jessiemeno9511]

This a ford dealer owner...fake news

[@mikecroce]

He’s literally showing all Ford components.

[@OpenAirAdventureFirewood]

Lol , good one. That was more confusing than father's day in Texas.

[@wolfbear572]

Lol I knew mirror was ford and suspension set up wasn't gm. Good video hahaha

[@brandonsimons543]

question do you see yourself possibly getting a ram in the near future since that's the one one you haven't owned? and I would like to see more videos on rams if ya don't mind

[@BTBRVReviews]

Brandon Simons: to be completely honest, I really like RAM HD trucks but have had many fiends and family with them that have had real problems with the infotainment system (Nav, Camera). I am a believer in the Cummins engine (like most people) but have always been worried about the parts surrounding it. That being said, I will do some more videos of RAM trucks and point out what I believe are their strengths. Thanks for the suggestion

[@brandonsimons543]

Big Truck Big RV sweet thank you!

[@BTBRVReviews]

Brandon Simons: no problem

[@rvnut1133]

I thought I was in the twilight zone for a moment there and almost cried! Lol..awesome.

[@daveaa5902]

Jason Lewis the GMC 1500 is really nice my dad just got one a 2018. Only problem is it comes with the 10 speed ford transmission which has some issues already lol. Just get the 2017.

[@bobonthis9520]

The transmission is a JOINT venture from Ford and Chevy :)

[@DoubleH1906]

Hilarious how you ended that. Genius

[@arthurbarrios888]

What the hell just happened???

[@yuritrujillo3361]

you had me thinking gm went to solid front axle! good one

[@bigsky5248]

I can almost hear it,"Hey, wait a minute you son of a...oh, nevermind." Haha.

[@Timriedy]

I work at a chevy dealership and I was wondering why the GMC was so much different and then I saw the axle in the front...

[@jameslandon4126]

Nobody else caught that Sterling 10.5 right off the bat?

[@AJsHotRodsNrepairs]

I know hey, and the distinctive ford mirrors

[@Ray-Ban1]

Watch the video or skip to the very end.

[@bassdaze]

LOL... you had me until the front suspension

[@jaydengerber15]

I own the new Titan xd but looked really hard into the Denali HD and to tell you the truth i didn't start questioning anything until no wax came off and that the door handles weren't painted to match the truck lol good video bud.

[@georgefunes4535]

This video triggered both GM and Ford fanboys

[@bigadielldne7234]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gopher1471]

Love this vid...and probably for all the wrong reasons...beat with a big stick and stand well back...well done.

[@sv5799]

Solid front axle on a GM truck, Hmmm last one was back in early 90's with the first independent in 1988 . Interesting comments.. Lol

[@erikgarcia3778]

Ha ha I went to my GMC Denali 2500 and found more leaf springs than those you showed and my tow mirrors look more masculine. Relieved you really had me with the shitty Ford

[@lyricalprophet100]

The Scotty Kilmer of Fords! 😂😂

[@bashibussup4676]

Lol this guy is hilarious. He Just trashed ford. I'm liking and subscribing 👍🏿

[@AllAmericanAutomotive]

And this is the type of video that tells you as a content creator if your subscribers watch until the end. I know trucks pretty well and I will admit you had me until the front axle and then I was like wait a minute!

[@BTBRVReviews]

Jake C: haha, yep...that was my goal...I'm sure 90% of the thumbs down are GM fans not watching until the end

[@AllAmericanAutomotive]

You are a serious troll to be honest lol though but I enjoyed it. I think it is important to realize whatever you drive that they all have trade offs and shit breaks no matter what. I personally chose the truck I did because I think for my needs and specific desires it is better. Bit that's not to say I don't acknowledge it's common problems and it's competetors for that matter. People get so brand loyal they forget common sense...or in this case how to take a joke.

[@jarodbluejacket7302]

The ending is priceless 😂

[@Eric_at_Raney_Ridge]

As a Ford guy, even I enjoyed the ending. Just to bad more people didn't have long attention spans before getting all butt-hurt.

[@BTBRVReviews]

Eric Raney: yeah, lots of people with short KZbin attention spans.....can't blame them though....I get rambley after 3mins

[@abramthiessen2886]

Lol knew you were joking when I saw the stupid coil springs in the front.

[@mattwright6249]

The old ones suck too.... its no new news.

[@mattwright6249]

Used them for plowing snow since 2013-2015... constant breakdowns... transmission, brakes, axles, engine issues... capacity.... The 2008 ram 2500 we run has NOT had an issue since 2008 other than normal wear items.

[@rogerbrandt6678]

[@tommyteske4536]

Yup or commenting on how your wrong haha

[@christom.dragatsis8819]

I could tell as soon as you showed the mirrors lol.

[@Otto_von_Chesterfield]

Wow if people only watched till the end. That is hilarious

[@splewy]

The whole video I was thinking "that looks nothing like the underside of a GM truck. When did they move to a solid front axle?"

[@harjotsaprai5055]

Knew something was fishy when I saw that mirror

[@Inspector694]

Soo basically GM's far better built....haha great video

[@BTBRVReviews]

balle27: hah, it can be taken many different ways! glad you enjoyed it :)

[@beauw5630]

Constructive criticism...yes I watched it to the end and believe me sarcasm runs in my veins, but your approach was a little confusing. It's hard to tell if you really like certain features on the 250 or whether you find it to be a flaw. That being said, I just switched from a 2015 f250 to a 2017 f350 dually, and have been nothing but impressed (with the exception of the rear cup holder). (This coming from someone who had a 2002 f250 Lemmon). Thanks for the videos! And for the haters...I owned two Tundras...loved 'em both, but they couldn't handle a 42' fifth wheel.

[@BTBRVReviews]

beau w: Thanks for the comment Beau. So, I knew my video would be a little confusing to those who followed it all the way through. The video was totally a joke. I simply wanted to see if people actually watched the entire video or started posting hateful comments and then never finishing. The real purpose was to see if anyone felt the need to defend the "GMC" parts and components I was talking about before finishing the video. I get to see what people post before deleting their comments, and I can tell you, some of the things people commented on were quite funny, but then when (and if) they finished the video, they deleted their comment. One comment was from a guy who said "That rear axle is the best axle GM has ever put in a truck and proceeded to give me a paragraph explanation explaining why....before he deleted his comment..I guess after finishing the video. Another person actually commented by saying "How on earth could you claim the solid front axle on the Denali is less robust than the Ford's piece of crap axle, I've known for months that GM was switching, so that's old news".

[@garythomas5067]

That would have been embarrassing if you could not delete your comments.

[@Luisgutierrez2011]

Ford lover! Lol😂

[@SKDaMan5]

Question commenters I plan on getting a 2017 GMC Sierra Denail V8

[@SKDaMan5]

Is it a good truck or not I feel like this guy hating.. Or is he right ?

[@hpperformance2819]

lol ok i feel like an idiot, i stopped the video right before you went to the box.. sorry 🤐

[@thekeatons4]

Nice job on getting your view count up! Making me watch the dang video twice! HaHa. PS- I used to have a 2015 Vibe trailer just like you. We lost in a fire (long story) and now have a 2016 Rockwood bumper pull. We have been thinking of getting 5th wheel (now have a 3/4 ton Cummins) just like your floor plan. But I hate to take a hit on my trade in. Later

[@BTBRVReviews]

TheKeatons4: We felt the exact same way brother. But after we did our trade, we LOVE our new floor plan. It makes taking the RV out so much more enjoyable. Thanks for the feedback sir. .... and the View Count :)

[@samking102]

lol I was about to roast this guy until I saw the mirror and knew it was a prank

[@kintehorton2472]

You slick S.O.B. 😆

[@alphaforce6998]

Nice troll, I know you were joking, but in all seriousness the new GMCs are excellent trucks. I have a 2018 2500HD Sierra base, complete with all-vinyl floors and seats. Very basic, truck-like interior. It's probably the best capability per dollar truck on the market at this time, and in my opinion, one of the nicest looking.

[@reggie8888]

I saw those spring buckets and was like wait a minute that's just like Ford. And surely that's not as different as my 2017 crewcab dually Denali. Lol

[@Elpacto16]

I knew somethin was fishy as soon as you showed the mirror lol

[@Ryan8775]

Haha! That was a Ford. Watch entire video. May have gave it away with the straight front axle unless gmc started doing those again.

[@lyallball3962]

We get it you like ford. Gmc's last longer than fords

[@Luke-cb9qf]

I knew as soon as you showed the mirrors. GMC mirrors are way better looking

[@fordman32508]

The GM mirrors have the reverse LEDs as well. Once I saw those I knew something wasn't right.

[@TheReal8deal]

gmc never switched to a solid front axle?

[@TheReal8deal]

oh are u kidding me.

[@zshredclh10]

Did you watch to the end?

[@TheReal8deal]

yea i commented before i got the end lol.

[@zshredclh10]

[@dedalliance1]

I think to make people feel better you should do this exact video on a real GMC Denali and show us what they actually look like because now I'm kind of confused by this video.

[@miltonzinn8732]

I was about to say, I was incredibly confused when I saw the different mirrors and the solid front axle.

[@timshull59]

See the 2017 does look like a chevy:)

[@BTBRVReviews]

TShull: hahah... waiting for you to chime in brother

[@timshull59]

Lol....You had me for a minute or so man....I was like man the comments will be smokin on this video:)

[@jordanlongino]

so what I'm getting from this is the way to give a GM product a bad review is to actually review a Ford.

[@BTBRVReviews]

Jordan Longino: If that's what you got from it.

[@rogerbrandt6678]

Good one, only way to make a gm look bad, love that, so true.

[@rarityd]

OMG hahaha you are a genius...I took the thumb down back =) sorry for jumping the gun

[@courtneyalex17]

hahaha yall watch till the end. 😂😂😂

[@zacherysyganiec5977]

not one pick up truck is perfect they all have good things and bad things about them but i personally would rather have a steel body because steel can take more abuse and its cheaper to repair

[@rogerbrandt6678]

Agree 100% people say no rust, well it oxidizes, stainless would be the best but expensive, but the old mci buses were stainless.

[@GolE2839]

There's some pretty significant differences between the 2016 and 2017 model years. This ends up just making you sound like a Ford fanboy.
