Who else thinks new trucks are way too expensive?

[@dantheman9395]

Yes and No. It,s like he said it has the capability and comfort. However trucks are expensive in general

The big three make more off of trucks than all of their other product lines combined (or so I have heard).

Ok.

[@Suresh-ib4co]

How your channel doesn’t have 250k subs is beyond me. That was one of the best, most thorough vehicle reviews I’ve ever seen on KZbin. Awesome job.

[@michaelmcclellan6327]

The center console and cup holder area is my fav part of the truck

[@1EVILZ06]

One of the best reviews I’ve seen.

[@hambone8826]

When comparing apples to apples, trucks today have about the same inflation adjusted cost as trucks built a few decades ago. If new trucks are too expensive, I guess old trucks were as well.

[@pt2135]

Seems to me that this has been exaggerated lately. 5 years ago a nice loaded diesel was a $45k maybe $50k truck. Now the duallys are pushing a hundred grand!

[@TheoldSouth]

@@pt2135 that has to do with the features and technology more so than the actual truck.

[@AkioWasRight]

@@pt2135 Well, in 2014, a loaded Denali Diesel was already about $70,000, and that's not an inflation adjusted price, that's the nominal price from several years ago. Another thing, prices don't necessarily follow inflation, they follow market demand. A few years ago, trucks sales were down, and that drove real adjusted prices down. A few years before that, inflation adjusted prices were up, even higher than they are now. Still, inflation adjusted prices have generally fallen or at least matched inflation. One more thing, sales numbers and inflation don't explain everything. A "loaded" truck today isn't comparable to a "loaded" truck built 20, 10 or even 5 years ago. The high-end segment is where most of the changes in the segment have happened. They're offering more and more features, luxury, technology, and other things that weren't available 5, 10 or 20 years ago. Of course price have gone up. Do you think surround view cameras cost nothing? However, when you take away the features and compare similar equipped trucks, particularly trucks with common spec, there hasn't been much change at all. In some cases, the prices are even cheaper. Take a 2001 Silverado 2500HD LT 4x2 Extended Cab 8 ft. box. That was a very common configuration in 2001. The MSRP for that truck was $30,725 in 2001. Adjusted for inflation, that would be $44,412.08. To compare, a brand new 2019 Silverado 2500HD LT 4x2 Double Cab 8 ft. box has an MSRP of $42,500. That's nearly $2,000 cheaper than the truck built in 2001. And go head and compare the trucks. The new one is bigger, has more capability, it has all the mandated safety and emissions equipment. In fact, the new one has 4 read doors. The old was just an extended cab. Hard to believe that truck was more expensive. www.autoblog.com/buy/2001-Chevrolet-Silverado+2500HD-LT__4x2_Extended_Cab_8_ft._box_157.5_in._WB/ www.autoblog.com/buy/2019-Chevrolet-Silverado+2500HD-LT__4x2_Double_Cab_8_ft._box_158.1_in._WB/

[@nukewiller4083]

@@pt2135 Actually, 5 years ago, a Denali 1 ton was over $50,000, and that's with no options, A loaded up Denali 1 ton was more around $70,000 back in 2014. Adjust for inflation, that's probably over $75,000 today. If you go to the GMC website, a loaded 2019 Denali would run about the same price. There's not much difference.

[@Icutmetal]

You might already be aware of this, but you do have a front license plate holder behind a bumper trim panel between your tow hooks. Ohio just did away with front plates, so I ended up putting mine back in.

[@joaquinmireles3912]

[@JonLIsALoser]

I thought you were going to rip off the def tank going up that hill lol

[@chrisholland2016]

Yep denali canyons or sierra 2500s or 3500 duallies are the only trucks from GM I'd ever buy. Now silverados it depends. (High Country or LTZ)

[@bigbossman3987]

I have a 2011 GMC Duramax Denali HD 4-door Z71 that I bought new in 2011, the 1st year of the Denali HD’s. Outside of a couple of problems with the DEF system, it’s been a damn nice truck, just wish that I would’ve gotten the dark interior instead of the light colored interior !! Now I also still have my older truck too, a 1997 C2500 Chevrolet that I bought new in 1997. Now don’t get me wrong, my 2011 GMC Duramax Denali HD is a far more nicely equipped & stronger truck than what my old 1997 3/4 ton Chevrolet is, but damn I love that ole 1997 3/4 ton truck. When I tell you that ole truck is the best money that I’ve ever spent, it is without a doubt the best money that I’ve ever spent on anything in my life, 464K miles on the original engine, transmission & rear end with none of them ever being rebuilt. That ole truck has never let me down in 24 years of having it, that’s with more than half of those miles on it being with a 25ft duel tandem gooseneck trailer hooked behind it !!! I could’ve bought 3 of those trucks for what that 2011 GMC Duramax Denali HD cost me. So are they really worth the money ?? Probably not when being compared to what I payed for my ole 1997 C2500, alone with the longevity that I’ve gotten out of it. I like my 2011 GMC Duramax Denali HD, but I will kick rocks at it as I walk by it to get to my ole 1997 C2500 Chevrolet 3/4 ton truck to get in it to go do something !!! The sticker on my 2011 GMC Duramax Denali HD was around $66K, the new ones equipped like my 2011 list for around $10K more than what my 2011 did at around $76K. The sticker on my ole 1997 C2500 Chevrolet 3/4 ton was around $24K, that was even with the truck having pretty much every available option on it that GM offered at that time, outside of being an extra-cab & 4wd. When you look at it like that, hell no they’re not worth the money they cost. Yet unfortunately, they’re severely overpriced just like pretty much everything else this day & age, while being made cheaper & cheaper with each passing year !! I doubt that I’ll buy another diesel truck, when I can buy a gas motor GMC Denali HD that’ll do everything that I need to do with a pickup truck with no problem, while being able able to buy them for several thousand dollars cheaper than what you can buy one with a Diesel engine in it !!

[@redrado0841]

When was this video filmed?...I’ve been working for Discount Tire for just over 2 years and we’ve been selling those tires since I started...probably even before then as well. They’re certainly not new tires. Put them on tons of trucks around here.

[@TruckCentral]

Filmed this month! Interesting, we weren’t told that. Guess that’s a good thing... on the market longer usually means more reliable. Thanks for letting us know 👍

[@ronaldalec4144]

Is this truck EGR def tank deleted? I can’t imagine the truck clearing that high centre a few minutes in.

[@Behindyamom]

You make a Denali look small lol

[@1vilakone]

what sizes are the new tires?

[@Icutmetal]

Look like the factory 265/60R20’s.

[@raulencarnacion3080]

If they're on a Denali w/20", must be 275/60/20 because GY doesn't make them in a 265/60/20 which is what factory says.

[@lyricalprophet100]

Do you still own the truck. Im looking at buying a D HD 2016 with 62000 miles

[@Guanacoboi]

I’m about to get a 2018 gmc slt with 94k miles

[@flyingscalpel7]

Has it been pretty reliable? I'm looking at getting a 2016, maybe around 60-70k miles.

Its YOUR fault if your center console is a mess. Think out of the box and design your own organizer. Its a big pit for you to customize. Your back seat area is a mess also. Nice review otherwise.

The Sierra is the least luxurious of the class. Lots of cheap plastic.

You Quite In Public Denali is a trim level to the Sierra. And out of it’s competition which is the the f-150 limited and Ram Limited, it’s the least luxurious. Do research before you start calling people names.
