I've had my 2023 Sierra SLT since the end of September. So far, way better than the 2019 Sierra I had. I haven't done any long trips yet, but have one upcoming in December.
I am impressed. The 3.0 Duramax is pretty darn nice. It's quiet, so far gets very good mileage and has the power I need. The 10 speed transmission shifts seamlessly. No harsh up/down shift. No slamming when coming to a stop. The ride is way better than the 2019. Even on our rough roads. The large infotainment screen is nice, though I'm still learning to navigate it. I also like the DIC. And the tailgate is easier to close. All in all, I'm very happy with it.
