This was the best review on UA-cam by far. I really appreciate you taking the time to talk about the towing and payload capacity and showing the GVWR sticker. It’s great to see GM increase the GVWR on the 2500HD and 3500HD single rear wheel trucks. For so long all three makers made very powerful 3/4 ton diesel pickups with paltry payload capacities because they limited GVWR to 9900/10,000 lb. I’ve looked at so many loaded trucks that only had 1800-2000 lb payload. GM hit a home run by rating these trucks in the 11,000-12,000 lb range, and allowing them to really take advantage of that wonderful diesel power. Keep up with the great videos. I’ve subscribed, and I’m glad my Canadian friends really know these truck specs. Good job!
Hey thanks for the comment. Yes they are slightly different a little longer so your hamstrings are more supported and a little more bolstered/supportive on the sides. Not tons different but for things to be supportive they are slightly firmer but that could also be because GM is using a higher grade leather than the previous generation.
Sorry, the video doesn't show the Trailering numbers very well I'll work on this in our next videos, appreciate the comment. Just to recap ALL 2020 GM TRUCKS have a door jam sticker with all the Towing Information for the truck the way it comes from the factory, each truck will be slightly different as the more equipment and accessories you add you reduce your payload! This truck is a 2500HD Diesel so with a lower trimmed truck you would have higher Payload numbers as an example. But the numbers on this one are GCWR 27,500lbs, Max Payload 3033lbs, Max Ball towing 18,500lbs with a max tongue weight of 1850lbs and lastly is 5th wheel or Gooseneck Max towing is 18,500lbs with a max tongue weight of 2775lbs. Does this help?
Nice to see a review with some of the specifics usually skipped over . Any AT4s on the lot you feel like doing the same thing with? Thanks for the review Any idea when GMC Canada is going to get their online configuration up for the 2020 models? Buying a new truck this year and trying to decide if I need the new duramax...
Nice bike I'm riding a KONA myself when I'm not driving my GMC. I would guess GM Canada will have the online configuration up and running on the 2020's within the next 30-60 days as that's when all dealers in the country will have stock available on ground. I totally understand the dilemma of choosing Gas or Diesel I'd honestly say the 6.6L gas is great to drive and has great towing capabilities and its also 9k less than a Duramax but if your towing all the time and its at the upper limit of the gas capabilities I'd recommend going Diesel.
@@WesternGMDrumheller Thanks! I had a Kona in the past and that is actually my dogs name! Thanks for the reply, I'll keep an eye on their website and keep checking with the CFO whether the extra 9k is going to be worth it in the long run Cheers
Best video so far on this truck, which is 👍👍. just one quick question do you know what the low ratio in the four-wheel drive low range, is it about 2.7??
GM Canada will start producing the DRW in September, go to your local GMC dealer and get them to build you what you want as GM is great at Building SOLD Customer units before normal stock inventory!
What I don't like is the driver side floor board has a large hump on the left hand side. it is not comfortable on a long drive. I am not sure what is under the fire wall that makes it not flat, but your left foot has to go under the brake peddle.
Dan Hukill I think you're right. I have an artificial hip and I'm tall so legroom is extremely important for me even on shorter trips. Thanks for pointing this out.
Isn't the denali supposed to have the best interior For being the upper class in the line? That interior is the same as The basic work truck and that same lineup.. Am I missing something here?
The Work truck and lower trims are a stain resistant treated cloth or vinyl. The SLE has premium cloth and SLT and AT4 have premium leather. The Denali has Authentic perforated Forge leather-appointed seating and open-pore ash wood trim plus Adaptive Ride Control these are three 3 exclusives to Denali my friend, cheers!
What's a CD player, lol, JK it takes 4mins to rip a CD to MP3 and about 6seconds to transfer that data to a USB Stick or SD card that plugs into your truck. Spend 1-2hrs ripping your entire CD library and you'll have every tune you own on a USB stick and way more room in your centre console. windowsreport.com/cd-ripper-software-windows-10/
@@WesternGMDrumheller you are right but that's not my point, when you rip CDs you get no title and even if you get sometimes you dont even know the artist. Cds you know what cd has songs that want to listen to and now look for 1 song In 1000s of mp3
Download CDex and you'll never have that problem again. It can not only rip CD's for you but it also grabs the artist, song title and Album art that will show up on your Infotainment system the same as a CD. cdex.mu/node/44 or search CDex in Google UA-cam doesn't like the link for some reason. Now when you have a USB stick plugged in you can push the talk button on the dash and say "Play Foreigner cold as ice" and it'll play that song, its a really smart system!
truck looks great, but WHY THE HELL isn't there power running boards on this Denali? $90,000 for a luxury truck that doesnt have power running boards, I sold GMCs 6 months ago and it pisses me off to not see them on it.
Hey Aaron appreciate the comment. I hear what your saying but here in Alberta and it translates to most of Canada as a whole, the power boards get frozen up winter time from the slush and potash/salt mix they put on our roads winter time. So for many Canadian's you don't have a 100% functioning board all the time. It might only get gummed up only a handful of days of the year but if you need the board to get in and out of the truck we always recommend a fixed GM 6" Oval board. Here in my neck of the woods we have LOTS of gravel roads which also gum up the power boards too.
Appreciate the comment, but we live in Canada and Adaptive Cruise like self driving vehicles won't work due to snow fall and snow covered roads. Its a feature that some will totally want and others could careless about, cheers!
WesternGMDrumheller don’t gave me wrong I love the exterior but interior is outdated... we in America said “we rather have it not needed it rather than needed it don’t have it “ plus it’s top of the lines they have it ...
I don't reckon it snows all year long in Canada. I have adaptive cruise control and use it all the time. It's simple enough not to use it in the snow or other conditions where it won't work well. I will not have a pickup without it. It's just too convenient and less tiring to drive during long trips. I was thinking of a Denali for 2020 because I really like its look. The lack of adaptive cruise control is a deal breaker for me.
FYI..... A mechanical locking rear differential Rather thats lever or push button is always better then an automatic locking rear differential Mr. Sales man. That's a proven fact Especially when you go off road... But people who manly just drive on the street It doesn't really matter, automatic would be just fine because The automatic would really never Really have to kick in Unless there was a weather issue Water, snow, black ice... But yeah mechanical locking rear is always better than an automatic in 90% of situations....
Well that brick looks better then the gmc. Especially the front. And interior. GMC gotta come up with a new interior sceam. Especially since dodge came out with that big boy screen. GMC N Ford have to come up with something to match it.
Not worth the money fellas. Drove mine for 3 days and took it back. Mirrors rattle on rough roads and don’t feel securely mounted. GM has done away with a number of features like pedal adjust, tilt wheel, phone charger still doesn’t charge an iPhone. The dials in cab are cheap looking and the extra 10 inch wheel base make it hard to maneuver in tight spots. Hard to rely on dealer reviews. They’re a little biased.
James R so we shouldn’t believe the guy who’s doing all of these videos because you had a bad experience with a dealer, I drove my buddy’s brand New Rugged, lol, Jeep Gladiator down a gravel road yesterday I can guarantee you the mirrors were nearly shaking off the truck too lol. These fellas have never once said that GM’s are wayyy better than everyone else in fact they say don’t take our word for it come drive it. Best dealer review I’ve seen on both towing and the new HDs other than TFL.
I think dealers are a more than just a "little biased". I live on a pretty rough dirt road and the mirrors on my 2017 truck don't rattle. Dealer reviews are a good place to start, but if thats all you rely upon to make a purchase decision.......well, buyer beware.

Hey big thanks for the kind comments and we totally agree with you!
I love GMC with Chrome grill and also Chrome on rims too, It is awesome I love GMC Vehicles
The Chrome is nice agreed!
thanks for the review and you are one of the first people to review this truck
Thanks!
It's amazing...G.M. has really outdone themselves for 2020 pretty well all the way around
If you like pig faces...
Brett Barnes I mean your mother kept you soooo yeah probably
Great video man! We just got our first HD and I'm using this to train my sales team (and myself). Bravo!!
Cheers from Ontario.
That's very kind of you to say my friend, cheers!
Beautiful truck, I can't wait to get mine.
Christopher Baker u don’t need one
Lester Antonio Bonilla haha haha! My friends tell me the same thing at work I’m looking to get the 2500 also 🤣🤣🤣
Does this truck have 360 view camera like Ford and Chevrolet?
Yes but unlike ford the New 2020 Chev and GMC's are Full HD Screens and Cameras. The Denali has 15 different camera views my friend!
Gmc the best of the best 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I hear the seats are different in cushioning than the previous generation. Did you notice a difference?
Hey thanks for the comment. Yes they are slightly different a little longer so your hamstrings are more supported and a little more bolstered/supportive on the sides. Not tons different but for things to be supportive they are slightly firmer but that could also be because GM is using a higher grade leather than the previous generation.

Buying one ☝️ soon 🤞👍🏼
does it have trizone climate control?
Hey Isaac it has Dual Zone auto climate control only. But the rear seats have both floor and forward heat vents along with heated rear seats.
Sweet truck

lol when you put it in tow haul mode the light comes on its your transmission temp gauge that comes on it the top right not water temp !!!
Nice truck it’s sick
Agreed, appreciate the comment, cheers!
How do you release the Tailgate if the truck loses power?
Hey Charles, if the trucks battery is dead and you can't boost it or get power to the battery then you can't open the tailgate.
No CD player???

@@johnnydrama8709 it look like a block
They look better bra. Platinum > Denali. It’s a shame they still don’t make the Harley davison edition theyd look even better.

would tow even more if just 2wd.
Yes but we're focusing on what MOST customers purchase in our market which is a Crew Cab 4x4 Duramax Diesel, cheers!
