They're the same thing. Just cosmetic differences. :crackup:

 

I do find it odd that I see maybe 5% GMC's on the road around here, but it seems there's 75% GMC's on here.

:dunno:

We are a rather vocal minority, aren't we?..... :)

Well here is the truth about this subject. The GMC crew cab is a glorified grocery getter for the white collar soccer dad. The Silverado is a working mans truck. :crackup::):dunno::D

 

 

+1 :lol:

One BIG difference -- Sierra Denali.

 

The AWD system on that truck is amazing, but you can't get it in a Chevy (even though the chassis goes down the same assembly line).

 

I personally prefer the looks of the Chevy with the "bulged" fenders, so I guess I'll be settling for AutoTrac .....

A denali really. Now I would hate to pull up on a job driving a denali. Defiantly white collar SUV with a bed. :crackup::):dunno::D

I still prefer having a low range gear available, thanks. One of the only reasons I opted for an All Terrain instead of going with an SD (other being the 6.2 would have been horrible on gas by comparison).

The fenders on the newer chevs look better than the Sierra's imo, but the gmc denali grille looks kickass :lol:, comes down to personal taste.

They are the exact same truck with different bodies, that's about it. IMO it comes down to which body style you like....At least GM gives us a chance to choose between them, Ford and Dodge just have cookie cutter trucks.

I agree... the Denali is an amazing truck! I am on the fence either way as to which trucks front end I like better. If your talking bone stock I like the Chevy's headlights and grill but from the bumper down I prefer the look of the GMC. I just looks tougher. As far as the sides of the truck goes I prefer the large flared fenders and bedsides of the chevy over the smaller flares on the GMC... but to each their own!

 

It seems I go back and forth between which truck I like as the new body styles comes our... but typically I lean more towards the GMC (except with the current body style) Just my .02 cents

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
