2009 gmc sierra 3500hd review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Heavy-duty pickup is remarkably refined. introductiongmc sierra heavy-duty pickups are well-suited for real-world use and abuse. These include as standard leather upholstery with 12-way power and heated front seats, two-person driver memory, heated windshield washer fluid system, locking differential, remote start, towing package, 17-inch aluminum wheels, and a bose audio system with subwoofer. the standard gasoline engine for all gmc sierra hd models is the 6. 0-liter v8, which rates 360 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque (322 hp for gvwr above 10,000 pounds). The sole option is a 6. 6-liter duramax turbodiesel, at 365 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic is the only transmission offered. options include moonroof, satellite radio, navigation, snow plow prep, integral trailer brake control, remote start, a power takeoff (pto). Determining exactly the right model and options will take careful and honest shopping because of the sheer number of choices. safety equipment includes frontal airbags, front seat belt pretensioners, abs, and onstar. Electronic stability control is available on many models. walkaroundthe gmc sierra hd shares mechanical bits with the chevy silverado hd, but they are no longer visual clones. A higher grille between the stacked headlights leads to a flatter, more traditionally styled hood than that on the silverado, plus the gmc gets unique fenders and box sides as well. a new panel forming process gives the dually models integral, seamless rear fender flares and smoother finish for improved paint. This gives the dual rear-wheel trucks a much nicer appearance than that of, say, the heavy-duty dodge ram. the wallpaper sized, ruby red gmc logo makes its origin plainly obvious but the bumper that blends into the fenders gives a much cleaner look and is unusual in hd pickups. Increased frame stiffness allows a smaller gap between the cab and body, and combined with the more aerodynamic windshield and narrower door gaps, makes the sierra much quieter than its predecessor. the box sides are deeper by an inch-and-a-bit, the tailgate has a optional lock and assist for closing it with less effort, and the cargo management option fits rails to three sides of the bed; these can be used for tie-down points and to carry a variety of tool or utility boxes. The lower bed height is appreciated greatly when loading and unloading cargo. interiorthe gmc sierra hd cabins are up to date, having been completely redesigned for the 2007 model year. Two different dash designs are available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. the high-line sierra hd slt features an interior design similar to that of a luxury car or the yukon denali. The slt uses a low-profile dash, a compact instrument cluster, and a center stack with lots of woodgrain trim that rolls off the dash and flows right into a full-length center console. Horizontally oriented vents are positioned at the top, with navigation screen below, and climate controls on the bottom, just above the storage bin that connects to the center console. The slt dash is sleek, speaks of good fit and finish. Instrument graphics were further upgraded for 2008. There are more places to add accessory switches. Radio and ventilation controls are up higher near line of sight. And the materials produce less glare in low-lying sun and night construction areas. Adjustable pedals and a tilt wheel are available, though the wheel does not telescope and is offset slightly from the seat centerline. the regular cab has plenty of room for large drivers and space behind the seat for storing a coat and a pair of boots. Extended cabs have articulated side doors that swing 170 degrees for easier loading, the windows in those doors roll down flush, and the seat cushion folds up for more storage. Note that the sunroof shade on high-line versions is literally a shade and not a solid cover, so the interior will warm faster on sunny days. operating controls are clearly labeled and logically placed. If there's a drawback it is the quantity of similarly shaped and labeled small buttons that butterfingers may have some issues with. Fortunately, onstar is standard and includes a few months free service; call them and they'll.
