Hello everyone, i am new to the forum and was trying to do some research and havent been able to find any answers. hopefully someone here has the answers im lookin for.

 

Are there any big differences b/w the 09' 10' and the 11' sierra denali? i am in the market to get one soon like next 2 weeks. Main reason i will buy the 11' sierra denali is the incentives and 0% apr but if i can find an awesome price on a used 09' or 10' model then i will buy. i know i want the 6.2L v-8 and mostly fully loaded.

 

If anyone can please help me out!!!!

As far as the body chassis and running gear, they are all pretty much the same. Most of the differences I've noticed are in the rear view camera and the bluetooth adaption on the phone system. I'm sure that there are others, but those are the one's that I have seen since I bought mine in 2007.

If those aren't a need to have, then I'd check out the lowest milage and lowest price.

i know i would like the bluetooth since alot of cities are going with the handsfree device laws. the rearview camera is a must since i have kids and if my wife drives the truck then definately need it!!! im wondering if the suspension is different and any other stuff in the engine....
