Great truck, I owned a 2004 Silverado version of this with the 5.3L extended cab, billet grille, bedliner, flowmaster 50 series exhaust, and used it every weekend to take my quad in the bed to off-road in the Superstition Mountains of Southern California and this truck was perfect on reliability, and surprisingly well on fuel economy, I averaged 17.5 mpg over 40,000 miles of mixed driving that included city, highway and towing. My guess though based on your videos for your truck comparisons is that you will be going with a Ram.

They feel big in person. My Silverado's 18s look small despite having 35s on them, but my wife's Ram has the 22s and they look enormous. She just has basic all terrain tires and yet thru are Em massive due to how they fill the wheel well. My first truck had 13" steelies. Wheel and tire size growth have certainly outpaced truck size growth. It used to be hard to get 35s under a truck without a lift. These days, it's a factory option. 37s are even possible on some trucks.

The Ram is the truck for people who like cars. It's got the tech, the interior, and the handling. I don't feel like I'm going to flip the truck if/when I take a turn quickly. It's the most sporty handling for sure and it is able to combine that with a super smooth ride with the rear coil spring suspension. I'd bet they're buying a Ram Laramie to spec or maybe a Limited if they want to spend more.

[@rightwingsafetysquad9872]

I looked at the Ram, bought the GMC. I didn’t like the giant screen, but the interior looked far better but wasn’t as ergonomic to live with. Also I drive many miles, the 3.0 I6 diesel in the GMC is the best engine right now for highway miles.

@@Bursar60 Can confirm… I had a 2012 Titan that I sold a few months ago. Over the course of 137k miles it never once needed anything other than normal maintenance. It was fantastic. Earlier this year I bought a 2021 Titan Pro4x. It’s been in the shop 3 times over 6.4K miles due to transmission issues which still haven’t been resolved. It’s now a known issue with the 9sp transmissions. Something is wrong with the steering column now so it’s going back to the dealer soon. I’m strongly regretting the purchase of this current Titan.

[@Briggsian]

In a vehicle that I'm planning to actually drive, I would rather have a smaller screen with a well thought out system of buttons over a massive touchscreen. If the vehicle is fully autonomous, sure, a larger screen for watching videos and reading would be nice, but that's not the world we live in (yet).

[@dmegahan]

But you can get a large screen with all the buttons too in the other brands. Bigger screens help with farmers views. Larger fonts when trying to use the screen like for radio etc plus navigation/CarPlay/android auto. With a bigger screen a quick glance is easier.

[@Briggsian]

@@dmegahan But when you're driving, things like changing the radio and navigation are distractions from what should be the main focus. A combination of intuitive steering wheel controls, contextual voice recognition, and a minimalist HUD can accomplish the same as a massive screen without drawing a driver's attention away from the road in front of them. Pair that with a digital gauge cluster capable of displaying rear-view and side-view camera feeds along with other information, and the center console display can essentially be relegated to HVAC info and the time. With the cell phone connectivity we have today, there isn't any real reason for the passenger to have their own display, save for being a larger screen to watch content with. Vehicle displays do more to date an interior than anything else, which is why I would personally prefer keeping them to a minimum.

[@VinceVDC]

I like the column shifter. My lovely wife will fill up every square inch of the console and I'm allocated the space occupied by the shifter.... No shifter means I have space for my cell and a small bottle of water..

I'll be honest with you, I find the tech on the other trucks very overwhelming. The GMC while a bit outdated, is simple, easy to use... and still does everything. The climactic controls are physical which I very much prefer as well. I genuinely prefer the GMC interior to the ram and f-150

[@Ficon]

@@upshifter5316 The point was the profit margin that manufacturers are getting on these trucks is insane and "working Joes" are happy to pay out the wazoo. The Denali is literally a Silverado with chrome and leather seats. The Silverado starts at $29,300. Do you really believe there is $30,000 of niceties added to this truck? There is no R&D or engineering to justify the price hike, no hours of race track development like you get in a German performance SUV. It's a cheap pickup truck sold expensively.

[@RedNeck_Zeus]

Of the trucks currently available I think I'd opt for the Ram. When the new Tundra gets released I think I'd rather have that just because I like Toyota and as a work truck it's important that it last a long time. If EV pickups were a viable option yet I'd love to own a Rivian R1T but that's not really a work truck so I could also go for the Bollinger B2

[@slow8r]

I just bought a 2021 Ram Rebel and love it. That said I may trade it in in like 2ish years for a 2023 Tundra if they have good enough tech and interior + performance. Certainly more comfortable long term with a Tundra than the Ram.

[@RedNeck_Zeus]

@@EpicTacoAirsoft I do really like the F150 Lightning I think it's a great option for truck folks who are sceptical of EVs or for EV folks who want a truck. I just like everything else I mentioned better. Ford's not trying to do anything special with the F150 Lightning, that allows them to have the most market ready EV Truck but there is nothing really about it that would make me want to get it over a Ram or Toyota or even the standard gas powered F150 for that matter

My 2005 GMC Sierra is perfect because it is literally the same but you don’t have fancy looking stuff and it’s proven to be more reliable with 280000 miles on it never had a major engine problem and it still sounds nice. I’m just saying please save yourself from trying to impress others with how expensive your car is and save your money for a house that doesn’t lose 10% of its value when you first buy it, never go to a dealership and always buy used and old, you will save a lot of money that way trust me.

And new versions of the RAM are coming for 2022. I should add, the RAM has the best interior of any truck in its class, including the brand new F-150.

[@ethinos2719]

You want to get a pickup to tow a trailer but I don't actually see you towing a trailer in these pickups to see how well they drive while towing. That to me seems a bit odd. Especially when a suspension in an F-150 would probably feel better when weighed down with a trailer, for example. Unless the pickup has air suspension, a softer suspension unloaded may not tow as confidently.

[@thomasholland8436]

We tow tested all the trucks we’ve driven. But don’t forget even though we tow, we are only towing for 10% of the use of the truck. So it has to be good at both.

Not at the weight they are going to tow.. an f150 still going to ride like a brick.. they always have and always will.. it’s just a Ford thing.. it would be different if they wanted a truck for hauling a lot of stuff daily.. then the doors would settle out and ride nicer.. and the ram and Toyota would show weakness as they are gears more for unloaded driving or towing while Ford is always about that payload number and always way over spring thier entire f series’s lineup

No they all truly ride terrible. Own one. Forums agree. It’s just the trade off Ford is willing to make to be able to claim hauling supremacy.

Plus 5.7 0-60 then you can get a performance pack and brembos 5.4 0-60.

My company truck is a 2020 Silverado LTZ Z71 with a 5.3, the President of our company drives a 2021 Silverado High Country with the 6.2, the CFO drives a 2020 Silverado 2500 diesel, and the VP drives a 2021 F150 Platinum. Hands down, no competition, the F150 is the superior vehicle to live with. All of our GM products have had various issues. Tranny, electronic, infotainment glitches, etc.. My personal vehicle has turned itself off while backing out of a parking spot, and about twice a week the infotainment freezes. Once it even played sound from XM, FM, and CarPlay… all at the same time. The only aspect better than the Ford is the ride and the dash. I’m not a fan of the digital gauges in the Ford.

Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!👎👎👎👎👎😬👎😬👎👎Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff

[@JonAikenTT]

Think you would like the Ram Limited better. It may not matter to you, but GM Crew Cabs are made in Mexico. You can still get 1500 Ram, F150, Titan, and Tundra made by people making decent wages in America.

[@fishrrelaxing9361]

I find this very i testing cause if you go back and find my comment in the original f150 video now that you’ve driven all the trucks you’ve all said more or less exactly what I told you about all the types of 1/2 trucks and how they perform overall lol.. and gmc vs Chevy the only difference is in the spring rates and shocks. Each can be externally and internally equipped similar.. gmcs ride nicer on road cause they are slightly softer suspension setups vs comparable Chevy.. but I already said this before too 🤷‍♂️ You still have the Titan but I’ll save you the trouble.. Nissan trucks are garbage.. even the new ones.. they fell cheap no Mayer what you do to them inside and over time they get all kinds of interior rattles etc that you won’t get in any other truck except maybe a 80’s Ford lol.. Been driving, towing and hauling with 1/2 ton pickups for over 20 years and driven them all in the best and worst conditions with every possible use.. if I wanted a nice car but in truck form.. it’s GMC.. if I wanted a best do everything with minor gives Ram and Toyota are top 2 and have been since mid to lat 2000’s. The tundra is riding on a design from 2007 mind you.. the simple fact you are even talking about it still says a lot..

[@kevinportillopineda5745]

Please, like Scotty Kilmer says, don’t buy GM vehicles. They’re cheaply made and they’re not reliable. I feel like even if it has its downsides, it would be better if they buy the Ford F-150 or the Toyota Tundra. Even if they have to wait for the next gen Tundra

[@LancerNik13]

No one gets a truck because it's techy and complex. Hell, very few people want a car/truck that's complex. It's a nuance that fades very quickly and becomes irrelevant. Life is fast and hard enough, driving should be easy.

[@increase9896]

When pedestrians get hit by today's trucks, its 100% fatal due to the ridiculous size of them. I used to love trucks as a kid but I cant stand this dumbass truck culture now. Bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger!!! And 90% of the people only use them to commute or get the groceries.

[@alpha2gproject783]

Truth be told. I wouldn't base your purchase on how the truck rides unloaded but more of what it rides like loaded down. In my experience I found that although the Ford trucks always seemed to have a jittery ride, they more often than not gave me a lot more confidence than Ram products. GMC seems to be the happy medium with both unloaded ride quality and loaded...wasn't exactly great at either but was acceptable with both and the only real let down is how absolutely bland their interiors have been for the past 10-12 years. For myself though, I'm not entirely sure I would get the absolute top tier trims if I was only going to use it for towing and not daily driving with the possibility of towing due to price...it would pain me to have a 60-80K truck sitting in my drive for days or weeks at a time while I drove a small car or something to work. I did that once and it was just too much of a hassle.

[@antonbalek2968]

So I got basically the same truck a few months ago and after several electronic minor issues, now the engine blew up with 14K miles on it. And the way GM is handling this, that's is an insult to an injury. I would stay away from GMC.

[@InFlamedParlysis88]

This channel has no nuance. It's just them makin vroom vroom noises bc they only care about going fast and knit pick over subjective things. Empty Calories-No Substance

[@2angetsU32]

Drives multiple column shifter mounted mercedes benz cars....gets bothered by truck shifter lol just sayin.

[@darkdodger137]

Only a non truck driving yuppy who shouldn't be allowed within 10 feet of a truck has a problem with column shifters. There I said it.

[@supremeetnel7707]

That center screen is pathetic. I think a Corolla has a bigger screen. The whole interior is 2008

[@kristoferbrown8007]

Exactly, it is sad for a Denali trim. Not impressed at all.

[@supremeetnel7707]

@@kristoferbrown8007 and at 86k its insane.

[@californiacastle]

1:09 what do you mean? It IS a full-size truck. Half tons are full-size trucks. The Canyon would be a midsize truck.

[@thesoggybaguette4465]

You just need to think with high end truck reviews, not a 3 series competitor, it's just a nicer truck to do truck things in, not a "refined driving experience", at the end of the day it's a pickup truck, not a Lincoln Nautilus. Great Review Otherwise

[@diegonunezgarcia6701]

Its bettef to have a mount shifter

[@Duke5o5]

I hate how they didn’t bother changing the interior of these trucks I have a 2016 and it looks the same! I was considering on buying a 2021 but just for a different outside I think not!🤔

[@clegz2]

This truck looks nice on the outside but ABSOLUTELY cheap in the inside so much hard plastic it’s unbelievable lol even on the Denali

[@7thdangooglefu]

You're not truck guys. Of course you don't like the column mounted shifter. "Agricultural", duh, it's a 🛻.

[@Seventysieben]

SO. MUCH. CHROME. In central London, this would be more conspicuous than a Rolls Royce. Edit: and the interior looks quite disappointing.

[@squiffels2494]

Wrong you can roll coal in a non diesel, you just have to drive a 44 year old pick up like my 77 F350 with the 7.5L V8

[@brucedallman1976]

Can someone tell me what the big deal is with Apple Car Play and Android Auto? All I care about is Bluetooth connectivity so I can play podcasts and music from my phone.

[@venomcrew21]

Why would y’all review 4/5 trucks and leave the titan out? You get japanese quality with a really nice interior and options. Give it a shot!

[@a3-radio]

I understand not liking a column shifter, (its like me not liking the rotary selector of fords, jags and lands, perfectly functional but i don't like it xD) but saying its hard to use its a bit much xD
