Test Drive - GMC Sierra 3500 Denali Duramax

[@austincampbell7243]

Buy it. You won't regret it. I've got an '11 duramax and I love it. Don't let these guys talking crap about it being too nice of a pickup wear on you. Buy what you want and get after it. It will be a great farm and personal pickup.

[@kylefitzgerald1870]

Nice truck, Dianne is Super, she sold me my 2007 Chevy Silverado 10years ago and its still rocking and rolling! Good Luck

[@dillonjohn3976]

I just bought a 17 Chevy Duramax last month and man is it a lot nicer than the old Dodge that I had and you will love the truck

[@billwhitman1529]

No doubt a nice truck. You are the best person to determine the best use of your dollars.... and you do deserve to enjoy the comfort you can afford!

[@markallen3293]

my wife and I bought a new 2012 Chev. 1500 Silverado LT and could not be happier. 27 grand well spent..year end sale so we got a great deal

[@securityman1960]

Buy it Man you know it makes sense

[@S.Low_345]

My dad has a 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali with the duramax, he loves it

[@meadowviewlawncarellc8079]

Nice truck love that blue color also. The hood scoop is actually a functioning air intake that goes right to air filter intake.

[@danielaltman9945]

I have an 09 GMC HD2500 4x4 equipped with a Duramax. 93k trouble free MILES so far. Also have a 96 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 equipped with a Cummins. 183k trouble free miles. GMC makes a nice truck.

[@kennethmarlow2731]

If you pull loaded trailers , you might want the Dooley. It would add a little more stability, I think anyway

[@JoeysAutismAdventures]

I use your youtube test drive videos as my white noise to help me sleep at night. also I am autistic. i like trucks , SUV's, and Airbus A321 aircraft as a hobby. i also like Yamaha stereo equipment. i hope you have a great weekend.

[@johnpayne8378]

I have the same truck in the 2015 model. I am so glad that I am not the only one that fights with the nav system. Other than that I love the truck. Pulls great, Rides nice when unloaded.

[@SF-fm7ov]

The hill descent is for steep downhill travel under 30 mph and it uses the braking system. A 3500 Denali seems like a lot to haul a few buckets of corn, especially if you don't tow, but it's your money to enjoy as you please.

[@richardgreen6578]

To fancy for a farmer! I am a building contractor and I run the 3500 work truck. it has a back up camera and OnStar, it just doesn't have the leather and carpet that gets trashed anyway.

[@TNAWWE]

lol thats hilarious. farmers in the South drive brand new 2021 F250's and GMC Denali's. they just trade them up every other year

[@yutushi6914]

The switch to the left of the engine brake is the hill decent control and it activates your brakes when going down hills in cruise control to keep the set speed

[@seanstewart2838]

the button before the last one near the exhaust brake is the hill decent control for off road

[@dimduk]

I just bought a Silverado 1500 and I love it, they have leather and rubber inside instead of my Fords plastic and cloth. The voice command is a little sketchy though but mechanically the 5.3 liter Chevy is much better then the Ecoboost F150 or Toyota Tacoma's V6's I have owned. For farm work you want the 3500HD, it's better to have the extra capacity and not need it then need it and not have it.

[@TurboMalibuV6]

I just bought a 20192500 Denali HD Duramax and I also didn't want a sun roof. I only found two within 350 miles from me.

[@AM-kc3xg]

You have to love a women who wears camo. Love the jacket Jamie!!!

[@5thgen687]

Add a cushion receiver hitch and a set of nitto terra grapplers. The factory hitch versions don't weight transfer as well. Terra grapplers have great mud traction, last a long time if rotated, and aren't so aggressive they howl. Most new pickups sold in my row crop farming area are Denali or King Ranch so don't ever feel a truck is too nice to use. I've got 170k on my '11 Denali HD Diesel and no mechanical issues. Just take the leap and figure out the blue tractor next. Maybe a yellow combine to match the yellow skidloader/backhoe. There is going to be a shortage of farmers and having nice things as a younger one only makes it easier to not fund a dirt and iron expansion at the same time.

[@alexbrowneudora]

The good thing about a new truck is that you can stretch out the payments if you want to and they hold their value way longer than cars.

[@graemegroot1456]

we have a denali duramax for a farm truck it has never let us down

[@austintimm1784]

Good choice. Had a neighbor just trade in his 13 Cummins on a new Duramax.. The Dmax gets impressive mileage even with the emissions equipment, and the interior quality is pretty good unlike the Cummins. Great color too.

[@matt1232l]

That truck is a beauty

[@farmingforfun9534]

wow some of these people are seriously getting mad at you for wanting to get a new truck? It's not their money, do what you want man. A lot of the farmers around me are rolling around in denalis so ignore these kids.

[@sethhudson9361]

Very nice truck. Does it have a spray on bed liner? If it does that's great, if it doesn't I would highly recommend one.

[@markzukowski2563]

My uncle got a new duramax and he took all the dpf and deleted everything with emissions on it and it gets better mileage with a simple towing tune

[@crazyhass84]

fyi it has one engine brake not 2 like u said. it uses the vgt turbo and closes the vains to provide the breaking. same as it has been for 5yrs in a gm and 10 yrs in a ram.

[@greyghostkoga]

Two thoughts: 1. If you are going to stick with the GMC (vs. the Chevy), price out a SLT loaded package. The best thing out of it is you will lose the sunroof, which WILL eventually leak, especially in snowy areas. And you will save about $8K. 2. I you are putting enough weight on it to engage the overloads (i.e. the "3500" parts), go with a dually. They are a LOT more stable at those towing and hauling weights. I've pulled equally heavy loads behind both, and the dually is much more manageable.Just my $0.02 worth.

[@hicksboyztravels24]

I have a 08 duramax and love it I can only imagine what a 2017 is nice truck Ryan it will last for a long time

[@DesertDigger1]

Several years ago GMC use to run an ad that said "It's not more then you need, it's more then your use to", they should bring it back. The great pair up would be if GMC paired up with Cummins and Allison, now that would be a pick-up truck! Down side of Duramax is it has fuel gauge issues.

[@FishFind3000]

If you like fresh air in the summer just crack the sunroof and open the rear window and you get a nice grease without all the baffling from the windows.

[@erickfatality]

Nice truck, really nice. Greetings from Mineiros, Brazil.

[@ninjawasher]

Hey what about that Rusty Red one in the back parking lot.

[@duaneconger2910]

That's a really nice truck I really like the color that blue is awesome. I hope that you bought it cause it's super sweet

[@waterskiingfool]

Always liked the color on that truck

[@AndersonCattleCo]

It's an awesome truck I want it to, but why do you need a 1ton truck?

[@HowFarmsWork]

+AndersonCattleCo. The 1 ton was cheaper than the 3/4

[@AndersonCattleCo]

Wow I didn't think about that I love that blue

[@cmusic52]

still hauling around the farm, the extra capacity is always good to have in case

[@ryanb3871]

Love at first sight. That truck would be my dream truck

[@dossjunk]

When you went around back, it looked like it already had a Wisconsin tag... Have you bought this already? :)

[@cmusic52]

I'm not sure but sometimes the dealer has to put on a pair of legit license plates before they can take it on a test drive

[@austinnutt6020]

You should get the chevy 2500 Diesel my dad has one it pulls are cattle trailer

[@hmaulick2214]

I was also debating on going with the GMC Duramax and even that same color cause i love the metallic flake in it. the only thing i didnt like about it is the consul and dashboard screen. i like all of the goodies in my truck and i couldn't find one with the full consul with the shiftier in the middle otherwise I would have decided on that instead of my current ford.

[@hoophil]

So this is what's in the barn........ Nice truck!

[@Heimerviewfarm]

hoophil If I was to pay 75k on a truck I definitely would be building a nice heated garage, especially since it's a diesel.

[@jacksonhunterandfarmer2673]

Great vid Ryan nice truck too

[@intothewild2345]

Nice truck! You going to take that bed off and put a flat bed on it?

[@ethandegnitz5247]

We have a 08 dodge ram 3500 and I has hauled 32 hay bales and still no prob with it.

[@karlbrohammer9105]

ONE TON truck for pulling stock and flatbed gooseneck trailers vs 3/4 T. Work the numbers, get the machine(s) that meet your needs for all of your operations and depreciations tax schedules.

[@thegauvinator3075]

ford guy but glad you have a pretty gal in your chevy good for you dont listen to haters

[@rickroarmen1367]

The Gauvinator technically it's a Gmc, but there bacicly the same thing

[@lukehamilton2130]

That hood scoop is part of the air intake system.

[@whistled46]

Own a 2003 Denali with all wheel steer, best truck I've ever owned just that 6L is really bad gas mileage.

[@cow35f]

What is the ROI?

[@Masseydriver]

Nice looking truck, love the color.

[@johannaklawuhn6228]

I hope these two are brother/sister, They look like twins and they might just be!!! But honestly, look at the facial features and the quickness to finish each others sentences, its like they have a bro/sis but, we'll still do "this" relationship...

[@ih1206]

If that's the truck you want Ryan, buy it. All that matters is if it fits your needs, aa long as you can afford it. Do you homework any brand and model, they all have their good points and flaws. I'll tell you what the old man tells me, "in farming, you have to learn to separate your wants from your needs".

[@G19Jeeper]

I'm a dodge guy through and through but does GM make a 4 door long box 3/4 or 1 ton?

[@FishFind3000]

ontarioknivesNS7 everybody makes them

[@willmcdonald1499]

Yes but any truck that is 4 door long box is obnoxiously long

[@G19Jeeper]

Will McDonald no it isn't, I daily drive one. It's 2 foot more than a standard truck. You can haul a ton of shit in it too. Truck ain't a truck until it's got a long box

[@lisowe33]

Buy a new one. I bought a new 16 2500 duramax and love it on the farm especially the exhaust brake when hauling cattle

[@MrDyson01]

+How Farms Work it has wireless charging too right?

[@credixon8203]

AKA KREE. I LIKE IT. I KNOW IM A LITTLE LATE BUT. I. YOU RYAN. IM. GLAD I. GOT. TO. KNOW. YOUR. CHANNEL NOW I LIKE THAT. BLUE. WHICH. IS. ONE OF MY. FAVORITE. COLORS. KEEP. UP. THE. VIDEOS. BLESSINGS

[@timothydeal8307]

Nice truck, that thing is a tank man

[@jakecastillo1778]

You should test drive a ram 3500 2017

[@masonking5875]

What do you use to edit

[@wavyrivric5899]

if you like that truck and do a lot of trips you can have that in a 2017 GMC Canyon diesel Denali, you save money on buying, save alot of fuel and it tow a lot for its class

[@SledgeHammer43]

You should have checked out the new Ford Super Duty. And you can get them pretty much the way you want them you just have to order them the way you want them.

[@thomasmaphis7126]

will you be happy with that shorter bed

[@StephenMortimer]

MissJamie is it good for kids car seats ??

[@benwillmoth2957]

but you're gonna be the momma :)

[@StephenMortimer]

Ha ha .. that is female "wile" answer...it's his choice (as long as she is happy... he will soon learn)

[@wateable]

dubuque?? r u from iowa

[@backwoodscoonhounds5661]

You should by it having a truck on a farm is just about a must we have 4 different trucks on our farm

[@paulmccallum4229]

hood feeds cold air to the air intake on the passenger side

[@Tractormanpj]

You going to trade in your car? Will probably bring the cost down a bit for you. Nice truck but I'm a ford guy but still very cool! Always love a diese! Thanks! Keep up the good work Ryan!

[@Gamebreaker08]

Life goals man.

[@kirklightcap306]

Good for you man, if that's what you want do it! All these people are getting mad at you lol, NEWSFLASH it's not your money lol

[@cmusic52]

Lightcap Lawn & Landscape how he's getting by as a farmer w/o a pickup soo far is beyond me, a farmer and his truck is like the Pinnacle of American tradition from everything I've seen

[@Philm88]

Lightcap Lawn & Landscape just a lot of jealous people commenting

[@craigburgeson421]

I think you should buy one that is just a couple years old because when you buy that new the price goes down a lot and you could get one cheaper if it is used but that is just my opinion

[@Jeddco66]

well othe rthen the phone works what do you think and hi Jamie

[@cobusbotha4096]

did you look at the Toyota?

[@tom-4719]

Hi Is Jamies Hoodie from Cabelas?

[@tylerbarthauer3357]

best truck you can get i love the Duramax it is the best

[@rbest402]

Is this a brand new truck? I guess i would look at a few yrs older and take less of a hit in the pocket. Either way NICE truck!

[@bedspread02]

based on what you have said about your needs with a truck I think that you would be better off with a 4x4 1500. The heavy loads are already being hauled by the heavy trucks and the farm tractors. Save yourself a lot of money and get a nice half ton.

[@richardbloomfield5836]

r u going to get it

[@chevyon37s]

Damn.... some people here think having a nice farm truck is silly... having a nice farm truck is great if you're not a moron and take care of it. All of ours have leather and heated seats, etc. they still put out hay with a bale bed, tow, check cows, and see plenty of mud without a problem.

[@nickhamel1369]

that's a really nice truck

[@finncarroll4486]

That rig would make a hell of a plow truck

[@davidharris6581]

Does that truck burn DEP?

[@farmallskittle]

is the live stream up tonight

[@TexSavage]

I heard the classic pain to pleasure transition in your comments, so i bet it was an easy sale for your sales gal.

[@codysteffensmeier9468]

Really like our 2016 duramax

[@daveschuetrum576]

My advise...Mull over it. Then order the exact truck you want with whatever options and color you like. Many of the options on that truck you don't need and are a waste of money as well as more to go wrong in the future. Don't be in a hurry and shop between dealers. You can email and work out the deals without traveling all over the place.

[@kajlerdog628]

I’m more of a Ford person but that is a really nice truck

[@brendancanfield9821]

I understand you like your GM products. Find something used that you won't to be scared to take to the farm and get dirty. It will be long worth it the long run and price will be almost half. Also if you get a 3500 better be getting some bigger trailers

[@Homegardener55]

Is this vehicle virgins now?? Saabkyle??

[@andrewschmerbach1911]

hey I'm on KZbin now, saw myself driving down JFK lol

[@polywirerancher]

Ryan if your looking for a real work horse for hauling stuff you need to get yourself a old El Camino

[@talfacprez]

Nice truck!

[@blackdog2827]

Ryan personally I like ford all my family have ford or Dodge Ram trucks and they haven't let us down at any time

[@MrShanester77]

Denali, very good taste!

[@hossblake]

Dude, that truck costs as much as my house! Nothing wrong with a farmer needing his own truck but you could just as easily buy a good used truck for half (or less) of what that thing cost.

[@peterdusenbury1661]

Nice truck Ryan buy it but I think you already did

[@slednecker87]

What's the price of that one?

[@codyoldendorf4636]

get a cummins dodge disle truck my dad has one as a farm try it works great

[@tblittlewolf47]

Unless you put on a lot of miles each year, there are a lot of good used ones out there. You won't feel that bad when you climb in it with mud and sh*t on your shoes. Also if you plan on using it as a farm truck it won't be long until there will be a lot of dings and scraps on it. Just my 2 cents.

[@tericnoah8836]

that thangs got a jake brake?
