Maybe the 5.3/8 speed I drove wasn’t a good one but the 6.2/10 speed was so much better I would buy it just for the smoothness.
I have seen a few 2020 5.3/10 speeds in dealer inventory in NC but none close enough to go for a test drive yet.
With the current prices on new 2018s I'm thinking about trading up from my 2015. It looks like a Denali (without the Ultimate package) is about the same price as an SLT with the premium plus package. What are the benefits for each?
