CarGurus Analysis: 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD

Summary
With 77 currently listed for sale and an average price of $38,956, 14.3% of 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD 5 / 5 stars.
70.1% of 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD stands out as a heavy-duty truck that was redesigned for greater capability without abandoning its work-truck roots. It debuted as a 2020 model, grew by as much as 10 inches in length and 2.5 inches in height, and adopted a slightly larger, blockier grille. The changes were modest inside, but the truck’s maximum towing capacity rose sharply, with its most extreme case increasing by 53 percent. Buyers also got a wide range of cab, bed, and rear-axle configurations, which helped make the Sierra 3500HD adaptable for both jobsite duty and more specialized towing needs.
Power and equipment are central to its appeal. The 2020 Sierra 3500HD offered a 6.6-liter V8 with 401 horsepower and 464 pound-feet of torque, or a 6.6-liter Duramax turbodiesel V8 with 445 hp and 910 lb-ft of torque. Properly equipped, it could haul up to 7,442 pounds and tow up to 35,500 pounds. Even the base truck came with a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while higher trims added features such as the MultiPro tailgate, trailering assist technology, off-road hardware, and luxury touches like leather upholstery, a larger touchscreen, and a Bose audio system. For buyers who want a serious tow rig that can also feel modern and well-equipped, that combination is a major strength.
There are tradeoffs, though. The base model was intentionally sparse, and the truck’s size can make it unwieldy in parking lots. Top trims can also become very expensive, and the truck’s rivals typically can tow more. Even so, the 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD remains distinctive for blending heavy-duty capability, broad configuration choices, and a more refined upper-trim experience than many buyers expect from a one-ton workhorse.

Besides the bells and whistles we grabbed this dually because we pull a toy hauler. We went from a sturdy 2500 Dodge Ram to this beauty. We choose the dually 3500 due to the pulling capacity and payload as toy haulers are heavier in front to compensate for the weight that you can put in the back. We have no issues pulling it now and the truck does not squat because the support of the 4 tires. Other friends have regular 3500 and still have issues with the payload and had to put in more money into their vehicle to beef up the suspension when pulling a toy hauler because the payload is less. YOU WONT REGRET BUYING ONE!

Yes — the 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction.
Owners consistently praise its impressive performance, especially when pulling heavy loads, along with its comfortable, well-built feel. The review summary also highlights that many owners view it as having a strong track record compared with competitors, which matters if you want a heavy-duty truck that feels dependable in real-world use. In the context of its work-focused design and broad configuration range, that makes it a strong fit if you need serious towing capability without giving up a more refined upper-trim experience.
With 30.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.
Is the 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The review summary points to a truck that owners see as reliable, dependable, and trouble-free enough to trust for heavy-duty use. It also suggests that buyers value its long-term durability and the confidence it inspires compared with competitors. For used buyers, that kind of feedback lowers—but does not eliminate—the risk of expensive ownership surprises, so condition and maintenance history still matter.
What should I look for when buying a used 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD?
At 74.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should start with a vehicle history report so you can separate clean examples from trucks with prior damage or repeated claims. After that, prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection, especially if the truck has been used for towing or jobsite duty. Focus on overall condition, signs of wear from heavy use, and whether the truck’s equipment and trim level match the way you plan to use it.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile options.
- Deal availability: 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 550 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.01% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 74.5% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $49,295, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD's resale value?
The current average of $49,357 sits slightly below last year's $54,242.
That decline suggests the market has become a bit more favorable for buyers, but it also means future sellers may need to price more competitively than owners did a year ago. If you buy well now, you may have a better chance of limiting depreciation pressure later. Strong demand for capable heavy-duty trucks can help, but resale will still depend on mileage, condition, and how well the truck has been maintained.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2020 GMC Sierra 3500HD or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2020 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2020 if:
- 30.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 74.5% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 9.01% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: You should lean toward the 2020 if you want the redesigned truck and you find a clean, well-priced example with the equipment you need. If your priority is maximizing savings, a nearby year may be worth considering, especially if you can find a lower-mileage truck with a cleaner history and a better asking price.
