Hey Y'all, as you may notice..there is a "Fundraiser" tag on this video. RU-vid is now allowing me to "host" fundraisers for certain non-profits. I elected Team Rubicon for the disaster response to regions affected by Hurricane Laura on the gulf coast. If you're willing and able, feel free to donate and RU-vid sends the money directly to Team Rubicon and you'll be emailed a receipt.
I've been watching your videos for the past couple years and it wasn't until this video where I noticed how much you've grown as a presenter. Very little hesitation when checking off features or providing stats. You really knew your product. Very professional. You also weren't afraid to take GMC to task for poor seats and other features. This is exactly what I want to hear! I may or may not ultimately agree but it gives me something to pay attention to during a test drive that I might overlook. There's my unsolicited feedback. You nailed it with this review.👏
Hey man I really enjoyed this review! I appreciate your honesty & pointing out its shortcomings. I really do like this truck but its definitely not perfect. Keep up the good work my friend!
Thank you! I feel the same way about it. There’s a lot to like but I feel like a little more effort would really help it stand out, still we can’t ask for everything right lol. Thanks Tran and have a good weekend!
I truly like the exterior and its color. I agree, the interior does look downgraded, but it will do. Wonder why people steering towards trucks and SUV. Excellent review 👏
i literally have this exact 2020 gmc denali carbon bro in this same color. Interior sucks compared to competition. absolutely comfortable for long rides. truck has a lot of power with 6.2 and gets amazing gas mileage at high speeds. when i tow 3k lbs. polaris rzr and trailer behind it... truck sags! not cool and on big bumps not towing you will feel rear end hit bump stops, suspension is too soft! but great truck one year and 15k hard miles and not one problem, all the fancy tech crap is pretty much useless, and truck is wide going through drive thru.. that being said i would happily buy it again and very easy to change your oil on it
Best looking rig aesthetically. Interior design is a bit blah. Like you said, functional but boring. Too bad really, the 6.2 deserves a complete package. Fine review my friend. How about doing a 2 door Wrangler Sport S? Seen your recent Sahara review and I like that one as well. But hardly anyone review the bottom tier wranglers, and a 2 door even less. Have a blessed weekend.
Thanks man! If I could get one I’d love to. It’s a bummer cuz I don’t get to pick the press cars, and I don’t have a connection with a Jeep dealer (yet). I can out in a request but I literally never get a response lol. Sorry about that!
@Prime Autotainment I’m in the Mckinney area if you want to borrow my 2020 GMC AT4. It’s got everything that the Denali has except for the sunroof, carbon pro bed and the 6.2.
Hey man I appreciate that! You definitely are too kind. That AT4 spec is my favorite spec of the Sierra. Idk if I’d have time to grab it right now cuz I do this in my spare time away from my day job lol. I appreciate you reaching out though, you’ve got a nice ride!
Prime Autotainment Thanks man! It’s my favorite spec too. I already put over 2k miles on it and I’ve only owned it for 2 months. Let me know if you find time and do want to borrow it.
Question... i'm looking for a new car for a teenager and i've looked at the chevy colorado and the honda civic hatchback sport, which do you see as a better daily driver for a teen boy.
Wrong y’all, compression ratio is higher on the 6.2. If you run 87, it will knock which means the fuel is igniting early and can result in engine damage. Octane is a measurement of knock intensity vs a known reference fuel using a research and motor octane lab grade single cylinder engine. When fuel is blended, the lab engines alternate between the unknown blended fuel and the known fuel. Blends are adjusted to match peak knock intensity to ensure the correct octane is blended. Ok all that aside, the only difference between an 87 and 93 is its components. Some are as low as 70 octane and others are over 100. When blended, a certain octane is achieved. Some of these higher octane components cost more to refine so price is higher. Anyone using 93 on a vehicle requiring only 87 is wasting money. The other way around and you will damage engines.
I have the 2021 carbon pro. My wife has a 2020 model 3. I wish both had way better tech. Seems like car tech should be way ahead of where it is. The carplay sucks on mine. It keeps cutting off. Also, the seat vibration alert doesn’t work most of the time. Lastly, I wish it had a brake hold option at stop lights. I like that better than the shut off. I doubt the shut off saves any gas. When ur car starts up, the rpms crank up. Doesn’t that waste more gas than just being idle? :(
GM/GMC has always lagged behind regarding interior refinement. Ergonomically, the interior is good. Aesthetics/materials used are shameful. Brings me back to the C6 & C7 Corvettes. They had terrific engines, but their interior probably lost them many sales to the competition.
