90zxdriver Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 I looked at a CPO 2012 Sierra Denali a week ago. It had 60k on it and they still wanted $35k for it. The truck was gorgeous and had every single option except rear dvd. I was (still am) super tempted to replace the SS but I also like not having a payment. They are awesome trucks though.

shawnss Posted July 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Well I went to look at this truck today. Just couldn't make a deal. I had to pass on it. Almost cut him a check until I found a rust spot that was bubbling on the roof about the size of a fifty cent piece. Was super bummed. Thought I had finally found a truck.

I bet your stokes. The denali class of trucks are sweet. It they made a crewcab SS that's what I'd get for a DD. I just really want a awd crewcab for a dd. With kids its nice to have extra room. I'm not ruling the truck out. But he needs to move a bit on the price. My autobody guy said it was fixable for about $800.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETHL_SS Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'd stay away from the 07+ vortec max trucks but then again they don't come AWD! I've had two of them and the rear main seals leaked like crazy on them both. Took both to the dealer multiple times and they could never get them to stop leaking for more than a week. I've also had a 2011 Sierra Denali for a while and really liked it. No problems with it what so ever other than horrible gas mileage due to wanting to play all the time lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stepped on it a few times and it moved pretty good. I launched it once and it shocked me. I hopped in my wife yukon xl with a 5.3 when we left and it left weak. the 6.2 has nice power.

Shoot John I can't sleep now lol. Yes I've researched it to death it's gonna be sweet. 6.2 in it and most likely Silver. Nice. I bet your stokes. The denali class of trucks are sweet.

It's gonna be a Cruiser and Travel Truck so I'm not really gonna do much to it other than muffler and maybe some slight tune work to take out some Tq management. Hopefully the guy will move on the price some sounds like a nice ride. My lady's 07 Escalade is Awd and it scoots pretty good too. Makes driving other vehicles feel slow lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC03SS Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 Change your mind from blue Jason? I really wanted blue but the Denali doesn't offer Blue. I really want the Denalu instead of the Slt. That grill lighted bed is sick lol. Plus go big or go home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitches040 Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 I want a dark green metallic Denali ... I'm gonna be looking for a 3/4 ton gas version in a few years ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bowtie Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 I would stick to the 2009-2013 year GMC Denali truck's. The rear back-up camera option & MP3 plug factory radio's popped out that year. Also, I think all of the 2007.5 + Denali's came with the new 6-spd auto???
