Love the new look inside and out of the Denali, always been luxurious without going near the six figure mark, Ford and Ram are just inches of that number.

Buick is practically nonexistent as an American brand, gm itself oddly trying to make you not believe its "even a buick " in its own advertising, and what most recently comes to mind for me is the April of this year gm buyback of silverado and sierra dmax trucks, along with how many stories of gas trucks lifters destroying the entire engine. But good news IS coming from gm at least according to gm because they, and us, will no have to worry about those pesky ICE engines thanks to GM and their government buddies.

    I bought a 2021 Ford F-450 Platinum in January 21. I drove it about 19k miles in 6 months and loved it other than a minor oil leak at 2500 miles that the second dealer I took it to fixed it easily but the DEF issue wasn't fixed. With the insane market of the last couple years the dealer I bought it from bought it back for about $5k over my all in price before the DEF fault was figured out. I found a 46k mile rust free 09 Silverado 3500 Duramax in Montana so I flew out from Maryland and drove it home. I'm surprised how much of the wonderful features on the new truck that I don't miss as much as I thought I would. I really miss things like adaptive cruise control, ventilated seats, massaging seats, and the heated steering wheel but not having to fill the DEF or worry about the emissions system failing. I don't mill the power as much as I thought I would, the LMM with a few mods is plenty powerful for the towing I do even when I'm out west in the mountains. That all being said I'm really tempted to get another new truck with how the new Super Duty and GM HD trucks look! I still think even with all the problems I had with my F-450 I would chose another new one of them because the wide track front axle is just so amazing. Either while towing, especially backing up, or the few times I drove it around without a trailer the way it would turn going through a parking lot was nearly as easy as my Grand Cherokee! I truly wish GM and Ram would make a regular production pickup with the wide track front axle. Not only would I like having the choice but you'd think they'd see how Ford has been selling every 450 that get to dealers even before the craziness of the market. Of course what seems to make sense to outsiders doesn't seem to dawn on the manufacturers otherwise they would see the prices of old diesel Excursions and make a new one or a 2500 Suburban. Thanks for reading my rant and as always TFL you're making wonderful content!

      @@9663mu that’s valid. Im just genuinely curious if one can really “feel” the difference between 800 and 1050 lb/ft of torque in a massive heavy truck. For instance, with sports cars after you get to a certain power level, the difference in speed sensation is pretty negligible. A 450 horsepower Porsche 911 and a 640hp 911 both feel extremely fast. Id imagine a 850 lb/ft of torque diesel and a 1050 lb/ft diesel both feel equally very strong. If seat of the pants feel is equal, Id be more concerned about longevity and reliability then having the highest numbers.

    I've been itching to see footage from y'all on the release today! Absolutely Love it. I was glad to hear the HP/Tq numbers are up just slightly over the initial estimates from a few weeks ago. It sounds like with the new turbo, cylinder heads, and engine management that the power delivery will come on a little soon and last a little longer. Peak numbers aren't always as they seem. So, this all sounds great.
    My only question is the whole "max trailering" option on the 2500. Are they doing away with the SRW 3500 and just offering a 2500hd and a 2500hd w/Max trailering? I've have had a lot of interest in building a "Towverlander" truck. So, the AT4x HD really fits the bill. We do tow a 5th wheel. So, I was planning to just bump up to a SRW 3500 from my current 2500hd Sierra, since 2500's can run out of payload pretty quick with a 5th wheel. I'm curious to know how that all will pan out and if they'll offer the "Max Trailering" option in the AT4x HD.

    • @CR500R
      @CR500R 2 роки тому

      Dropping the 3500 SRW would be a huge mistake. I certainly hope they won't do something like that. There are many major fleet customers who use 3500 SRW trucks, surprisingly more than most know. The DRW has its place, but the 3500 SRW likely has higher sales volume numbers.

    Love the “Allison” branded trans comment. Able to put Allison’s name on the side, but not built by Allison. Not that it’s a bad trans or anything, but it’s annoying how they are getting around not be a real Allison. New Super Duty for me. I’ve had Rams the last 3 years and they’ve been great. I’m changing for no other reason than I buy whatever model catches my eye that year. However, I still will not buy another GM HD until they change that shitty front end. It is simply not a HD front end. Plus the Duramax has 40% more parts than a Cummins and 10% more than a Powerstroke. Although the L5P is better, they most certainly have the most troublesome emissions systems, they are just way to complicated of an engine and the way the systems work. The Denali is certainly a great looking truck, but GM let us down once again. At least they made the interiors a little better.

    Definitely impressive, I like the GMC look better than the Chevy look, but I don't like it for the following reasons...
    1, the biggest reason, I think these manufacturers are getting out of touch with all this "tech" casting prices to hike so much. I make a pretty decent wage of about $80k a year but no way am I gonna want a $1,000+ monthly car payment. Why can't they just have simple options? I remember these used to be $40k about 15 years ago which I'd say was reasonable.
    2 - I like the 3 seater flip up counter console option my 2008 LMM has. Best of both worlds. Center console for everyday, and an extra seat if I need it.

That said, I can say that this segment is getting so competitive, it is more of a matter of Brand Loyalty rather than actual capabilities since anything PAST 27,000 lbs of towing requires a CDL anyways!
    ANY modern Ford F350/F450, GMC HD3500, Chevy HD or RAM 3500 will DEFINITELY be able to pull a Keystone Montana Fifth Wheel in complete control and comfort so the ONLY differentiators is how good the air conditioning and heating is, how fast the on-board Wifi or Starlink internet connection is and whether the back seat passengers get DCI 8K resolution OLED displays, massaging seats and heated/cooled leather perforated seats and the requisite plenty of USB and wireless charger connections!
    The ONLY THING MISSING from ANY of these trucks is the internal and externally accessible and phone-lockable COMBINED fridge and freezer compartment which lets me keep FIVE footlong Subway submarine sandwiches and a six-pack of Sprite separated from each other and KEPT COOL plus keep my one gallon bucket of cholocate ice cream fully frozen for the entire weekend!
    AND of course, they need to ADD my DESIRED 100,000 lumens user-selectable bright white, pilot car orange and infrared nightvision colour LED swivelling and into-roof-retractable lightbar!

    I realize that a truck this EXPENSIVE and beautiful. Certainly is not going to see any off road time. If even a dirt road on rare occasion.
    But you are traveling as per it's design. Towing a trailer or hauling a camper. Protection for the front is needed. I also hope they come standard with lockers front and rear... both 2wd (locking rear) and 4wd (both front and rear). As you stated you are in Colorado. It snows and having lockers are like a shirt with pockets ! Again, this truck is designed to be on the road traveling. Another thing would be to at least offer those items on the AT4. The other thing is "auto leveling " headlights.
    For the amount of money you have to spend on these. These are simple features that should be available.
