Used 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 for Sale

What's New in the 2019 GMC Sierra 1500?

The first thing you'll notice about the all-new 2019 Sierra is the sophisticated, yet rugged exterior. There won't be much mistaking this truck from a Chevrolet since the new Sierra employs the brand's design language in a well-executed way with C-shaped headlights, a big, bold grille, and a body with angles in all the right places to make it stand out as a GMC. As you work your way up the model range, the look of the Sierra can change quite a bit like with the off-road-ready AT4 trim and the luxurious, chromed out Denali model. We can't talk about the Sierra's exterior without talking about the MultiPro tailgate. This is a feature you can't get on any other truck, including the Silverado. It has six different functions, making it ready to handle a wide range of different tasks without requiring any add-on accessories that you might normally need. Obviously, it folds down like a regular tailgate as its primary function. Once it's open, a load stop can pop up to help keep long items secure. The inner gate can fold down to give you easier access to your cargo without having to reach all the way across the tailgate. Once that's folded down, you can fold it down into steps that can support up to 375 pounds, making it a breeze to climb into the bed. You have the option of folding down just the inner gate and putting the load stop up, which is perfect for hauling wide items like plywood. Finally, you can use just the inner gate folded down as a handy desk or work surface. The MultiPro tailgate is a little complicated, but it's a very cool feature that you might find yourself using more often than you ever planned on. Once you get used to its many functions, you may forget what it was like to live without it. Another cool thing about the bed of the Sierra is that it's available in carbon fiber making it lighter and stronger -- – an industry first. Despite being an all-new generation, the new 2019 Sierra is pretty familiar under the hood. It uses the same base 4.3-liter V6 engine as the outgoing model and the same 5.3-liter and 6.2-liter V8 options. What is new is a 2.7-liter turbocharged inline-four, which offers a nice blend of performance, capability and fuel economy. It's not available as of this writing, but an efficient, high-torque 3.0-liter Duramax diesel option is on its way to the Sierra.  See the 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 models for sale near you

Which Sierra 1500 is the Best?

One of the great things about the all-new Sierra is the variety within its model range. We think the sweet spot is in the SLT model, which gives you the cool MultiPro tailgate, a leather-trimmed interior, the ProGrade trailering tech and a great V8 engine in the mid-$40k range. That makes it a strong value for most truck shoppers. Obviously, if you want more luxury the Sierra Denali is a great choice and the Sierra AT4 looks cool and has some nice off-road kit for the occasional off-road adventure. No matter which one you go with, you're getting a classy, modern, high-tech truck in the all-new 2019 Sierra 1500. Find a GMC Sierra 1500 for sale

How Much Does a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500 Cost?

Despite being marketed so heavily as a luxury vehicle, there aren't a whole lot of bells and whistles that come standard on the base model of the Sierra 1500 since it's still a work truck at heart. What does come standard on the base Sierra ($31,195) is LED headlights and taillights, an illuminated cargo bed, rear corner steps, a 7-in infotainment system with Bluetooth, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. You also get one USB port. Other than that, it's a pretty bare-bones work truck, which we actually like as a simple, yet modern tool for getting the job done on a budget. This is the only version of the Sierra you can get with a single cab configuration and the base V6 engine. Moving up to the SLE trim ($39,395) gives you a much nicer truck. The base engine becomes the 2.7-liter turbo-four and it can only be had in double cab or crew cab configurations. You get an upgrade to an 8-in infotainment system that is 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot capable plus standard creature comforts like cruise control, carpeted floor covering, 6-speaker audio, a color driver information center in the dash, power windows and locks, remote keyless entry, steering wheel mounted audio and cruise control, multiple USB ports and more. It's also nicer on the outside with alloy wheels, chrome bumpers and body-color door handles. Next up is the Elevation trim ($41,895), which puts a sporty spin on this rugged truck. It has a monochromatic appearance package with a big, black grille, LED fog lamps and body-color painted bumpers plus 20-in black rims. In terms of standard and available features, the Elevation model is pretty similar to the SLE. Upgrading to the Sierra SLT ($45,895) is where things really start to get fancy. The standard engine is the 5.3-liter V8 with DFM and it's where the MultiPro tailgate becomes available. It also adds high-intensity lighting, a traction select system and the ProGrade trailering system, which includes Hitch Guidance with a Hitch View rear camera, auto electric parking brake assist and a tailgate-mounted light for easy night-time trailer hook-ups. There's also a handy trailering app in the Sierra's infotainment system. On the SLT model, you also get an integrated trailer brake controller, leather seats that are heated and power-adjustable in front and a heated steering wheel. This is also where the 6.2-liter V8 becomes an available option. Truck shoppers looking for a satisfying blend of luxury, capability, technology, and value should take a close look at the Sierra SLT. The next step up the Sierra food chain is the AT4 model ($52,395). AT4 is a new off-road sub-brand of GMC with this Sierra being the first member of the AT4 family. However, don't expect Ford F-150 Raptor levels of off-road insanity. The Sierra AT4 comes with standard 4WD, the MultiPro tailgate, a 2-in lift kit, an AutoTrac 2-speed transfer case, Rancho off-road suspension and skid plates, an automatic locking rear differential, black leather seats with Kalahari accents (an AT4 exclusive), heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear outboard seats. The appearance package includes red vertical recovery hooks and a black chrome grille and accents. The Sierra AT4 certainly looks the part of an off-roader and it has a few nice improvements over the standard Sierra, but it would be nice to see a Sierra that's more competitive with the likes of the mighty Raptor. Finally, we've reached the summit of GMC pickup excellence: the Denali ($56,295). This luxurious pickup comes standard with perforated Forge leather seating and open-pore ash wood trim making for premium materials you might be surprised to find in a pickup truck. Of course, the seats are heated and ventilated in front and heated in back plus you get an 8-in digital driver information center in the dash, Bose premium audio, lane-change assist with side blind zone alert, rear cross-traffic alert, safety alert seat and even more safety tech. Available tech in the Denali includes a head-up display, a surround-vision camera, a rear camera mirror, MultiPro power steps and more. On the outside, you get a signature Denali grille with high gloss black mesh and chrome inserts plus plenty of Denali badging inside and out. The Sierra Denali has a gorgeous interior, but it has a tough competitor in the likes of the high-end Ram 1500 models, which are available with similar premium materials and a massive 12-in infotainment system.
