GMC’s 2017 Sierra 1500 not only claims most powerful gasoline V8 available, its 12,500-pound max trailering figure for crew-cab pickups is a best-in-class first. The Sierra’s impressive towing ability is augmented by bold styling and new driver-assist features, giving two more reasons to buy.
The 2017 GMC Sierra has no answer to the diesel-engine options from the Ram 1500 and Nissan Titan, both of which offer superior fuel-economy figures. If you just need light-pickup duty, you can find nearly equal bed and payload ability in a GMC Canyon or Toyota Tacoma.
