Next Gen Denali Models

DanMan_S · January 3, 2007

Is there any word on if an extended cab sierra denali will be available?

I love the looks of the new trucks in extended cab form, but really want the 6L80/6.2L. Awd is just icing on the cake. If there wasn't the chance of getting the bigger engine and the 6 speed I would have just ordered a 6.0L VortecMax Silverado/Sierra.

I spent yesterday afternoon at the dealership and I realized how much I missed driving GM. d**n you mopar!

so ya want to come back and be Lutz'd.....jus cuz ya tired of being Deiter'd?

I saw somewhere on youtube a 2007 GMT-900 intro piece that GM placed there.

In it they mentioned a GMC truck with 6.2 6spd when they were explaining the drivetrain breadth that GM was offering.

I'd like to wait to '08 and see if the Sierra Denali comes back too. Or if they put the 6.2/6L80 in a Silverado SS...I'd like that even better!

I read that the Denali will come CC with 6.2/6sp mid-year, it didn't say anything about the EC. Personally, I'd rather not have the AWD as std., and have the std. pushbutton with 'auto' selection.

I love my SRT8 but the quality control is horrible. I've been taking it in every week or 2 to get something fixed and am really starting to get annoyed with the pos. When I was driving GM they never let me down.

I really don't want to go down in power/torque but I figure that the 6.2L would be a excellent compromise. Especially since I would actually have a selection of tires then.

On GM's powertrain website they show that the Sierra Denali is getting the 400 hp/ 417 lbft version of the 6.2L while the Yukon's are only getting the 380 hp version.

I feel your pain.

For the most part, my TBSS has been a dream. QC isn't too bad...It's quick (not as fast as an SRT8, but fast)...Nice features.

Then my transmission went and crapped itself. Now the dealership has had it for over a week...Parts on backorder

Still love it though. I was looking at the SRT8 Cherokee, but I needed to be able to tow, and this pig has something like a 6k pound tow rating. So I went with the TBSS.

Those TBSS are still really nice rigs! I had a factory order for one until I found that I could get the SRT8 cheaper (Welcome To Canada, eh).

I'm also finding now that I miss driving a pickup...having a screaming fast SUV is awesome but it just doesn't feel right, haha.

Went to the Auto Show in Detroit and they are featuring the new Sierra Denali in black. It looks good with a chrome upper and lower grill like the Yukon Denali. It is a four door version. Sorry didn't take any pic of it.
