Now that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autonocion.com\/us\/cybertruck-discontinued-2027\/\">the Cybertruck is gone<\/a>, there needs to be another oversized pickup, and luckily the replacement is a bit more capable.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Cavender Auto Country Chevy Buick GMC in Texas was selected to be the first-ever redesigned 2027 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali in the United States. And the first look was met with mixed reactions. But hey, being controversial makes it a great candidate for a Cybertruck replacement.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none; overflow: hidden;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Famanda.galabeas%2Fposts%2Fpfbid03BtwTCnakt67qfCUS4vGDKvJu1X6scyWrNZPMp7o5LbsiBWyjehhsuxzryqmkznVl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"651\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Your sorta over-the-top truck is here<\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<p>The GMC Denali arrived in the United States back in 1999, with the Yukon. It has continued to be a popular choice in the U.S., surpassing 2 million units sold in late 2024. GMC had record-breaking sales in the US last year, with many believing that this included increased Denali sales (although GMC has not revealed any exact numbers).<\/p>\n<p>The new GMC Denali has a white exterior with black details. It looks&#8230;. Pretty plain. A lot of the early reactions say it looks like a &#8220;work truck&#8221; rather than a luxury pickup. A lot of the added details look a bit cheap, to be fair, like the black taillights. But hey, at least it&#8217;s free of fingerprints and rust.<\/p>\n<p>The interior was equally jarring for Denali fans, with some noting it looks tacky and cheap, including the center console and vinyl seats. But Car and Driver raved: &#8220;The Sierra 1500 can be had as a stripped-down Pro work truck as well as a high-zoot Denali Ultimate luxury rig. In any trim, passenger space in the front seat is generous.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But okay, the looks should be the least important part of a truck. In theory. I mean, people were buying a smudged metallic dumpster. Well, okay, only 70,000 people did. But that&#8217;s a lot of people willing to drive an embarrassingly tacky crypto bro billboard with panels falling off just to get the alleged capabilities Elon Musk lied about.<\/p>\n<p>And here&#8217;s where the true difference lies. The GMC Denali can actually do things. It has a 6.6L V8 L78 engine that makes a little over 400 horsepower, can tow up to 13,500 pounds, and likely won&#8217;t get stuck in sand. It has a 16.3-inch infotainment system, an 11.5-inch front passenger screen, and a 12.2-inch driver information display, as well as a Bose audio system, a rear camera mirror, and adaptive cruise control.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, it&#8217;s not as &#8220;get &#8216;er done&#8221; as an actual work truck. But it&#8217;s still plenty capable.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest downside? It&#8217;s $86,000 (thanks to a $2,795 destination fee and $9,205 in added features). But it didn&#8217;t promise to be $30,000 first, did it? Plus, GMC never claimed there was a $16,000 &#8220;Range Extender&#8221; that would take up a third of the bed space before being canceled.<\/p>\n<p>MotorTrend&#8217;s review concluded with: &#8220;With its suave styling, abundant tech features, and proven work-ready capability, the redesigned 2027 GMC Sierra 1500 could become the best version of this venerable full-size pickup truck yet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So yeah, the 2027 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali is sorta ugly. But it&#8217;s cheaper and more capable than the Cybertruck and it won&#8217;t get you laughed at. Well, unless you lift it or something. Seems like a good alternative to me if you want to overpay for a truck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big news for fans of big obnoxious trucks.
