Big jobs call for big trucks, and they don’t come any bigger than the 2016 GMC Sierra HD. Upscale Denali models offer near-Cadillac levels of comfort and convenience.
If you just need the power and capability of a 2500/3500 HD truck, but not the exorbitant price tag, a base Silverado, Ford F-Series or Ram HD makes a far better choice. Both the Ford and Ram diesels have higher torque ratings than the Sierra.
