GMC Sierra 1500 (2007 - 2013) Reviews, Pricing & Specs

The 2013 [and later] Sierra 1500s are great trucks. They are rugged, dependable and easy on the eyes. I have owned more than one of the big four full size American made trucks and the GMC keeps me coming back. My only issue would be the cloth used in the seating is hard to keep clean. Because of this I opt for leather. GMC is number one in my book.Feb 27, 2021

I'm told the 2012 Sierra 1500 remains one of the best trucks in its category. In terms of capability (like towing), body style and power, the Sierra 1500 is right up there with the competition. The GMC is known for its smooth and quiet ride which makes it a logical choice as a long-distance road-tripper. It is a half-ton full-size pickup that is offered in standard cab, extended cab and crew cab body styles (I have the extended cab). Upgrades like 20" Chrome wheels, Bluetooth, and Climate Control are "must haves" for those that are not only concerned about appearance but enjoy conveniences that the latest technology can provide.May 04, 2014

You pay a premium for the style and features of the Denali trim line, but it's worth it. I've loved this truck since the day I got it and am still very happy with it. That's saying a lot since I'm a gadget guy and love the new features you can get on newer models. I have added cameras (front, back and sides), sound proofing (though it was already quiet), and an aftermarket bluetooth phone connection. The GMC Nav isn't the greatest, but it's handy if you don't want to use your smart phone.Feb 23, 2014

Great over all truck and reliable also.. Easy to drive and looks good going down the road. We have taken this on a few road trips and it was very comfortable and fuel economy was over 20 MPG on the freeway.. I also used it to pull a trailer ..I hauled my Jeep and it pulled like a dream..Love the tow haul button with the Alison transmission. I had no issues at all. great Truck for towing heavy loads..Nov 13, 2013

5.3L V8 has plenty of power. Acceleration is acceptable for a full-size pickup. Braking is particularly good. Handling is exceptional considering the width and length of the vehicle. The vehicle itself is a quality vehicle. No issues related to build quality. Appearance is, in the only words I can think of, manly. It looks like a pickup a man would drive. Gas mileage is not the best, but considering that it has a 5.3L V8, you should not expect great gas mileage. Currently getting 14.8 MPG. With a 26 gallon (U.S.) fuel tank, you can still get to where you need to go, although the price to fill the pickup can be high. The Active Fuel Management feature, however, is great (switches between 4 and 8 cylinders depending on driving conditions). It's a fun vehicle. Loaded on the inside. I don't have a navigation system primarily because I don't need one. Sound system is great. Although it's a pickup, it doesn't drive like one. My pickup is Stealth Gray in color, and I can tell you that a number of people have asked me where I purchased my pickup simply because of how good my pickup looks. Enough said.Oct 24, 2008

I love my truck. It has the power I need to pass or rolls along to save gas. It's goes from V-8 to V-4, so its great on gas. I love the on-star and in car phone. It has a great sound system, with Bose speakers. Leather light tan interior and brown on the outside. I has everything I could want. I have had a GMC the last 3 trucks I have owned and I wouldn't own anything else.Jul 20, 2008
