I pick mine up tomorrow. I don't think I will be sleeping much tonight 😂.
NICE!!! I bet 😎🔥 What model/color did you choose?
Just got the 2024 2500 HD AT4X AEV edition 3 weeks ago , it's a beast !
😅
2024 WHITE FROST 3500 DEISEL AND YES ❤❤❤ IT !!!!!😊
Anyone with negative feedback about the tailgate has never used one, they are so functional! I will never own a truck without a magic tailgate from now on.
100% agree!
Agree...it's been incredible and my wife loves it too.... easy to use 😎
Thanks for watching 👍
I never knew I would need speakers in a tailgate, oh that's right I don't.
@@joewreckingballbiden9156 I don't have them either...
Thank you! Tundra lover here, considering something larger. Great video, and that tailgate is fantastic!
Glad you like it! Yes, as far as the size goes I love the space. Thanks so much for watching 👍🏼
Love this truck. Great video!
Glad you like it!
Thanks for watching 👍
Plain and simple, great video and great update…ty
Thanks 👍 Really appreciate that!
I got the SLE. I've had it for a year myself. Had the same issues with the trans but it seemed to fix itself (or i did). I went with the gasser, i needed more payload. 3500lb is my payload. I have a crew cab with the 8' bed x31. She is a big girl. Fully loaded with all the packages, i had it built. The tailgate is one of my favorite things, ill never go back. I haven't done the recall yet.
The only thing i dont like is the plug in the bed. It doesn't work. Not that it doesn't work, it does work only if you want to plug in a battery charger. I wanted to run shop vac, saws, compressor, ect.
You do have a beautiful truck thx for sharing.
You’re not kidding you got it fully loaded for sure. I think makes quite the statement driving down the road great choice. Thanks so much for watching 👍🏼
I drove out to IL last Monday to pick mine up. Downpour Metallic Blue. Had a great 900 mile break-in ride home on Wednesday. Love the truck. Thanks for your other videos. They were a great source of info when researching. Also, thanks for the tip on the air pressure. Going to drop mine a few pounds this weekend before a trip down to DC on Monday.
Hey, I tried responding but it may not have sent it so I'm doing it one more time.... sorry if it repeats on your end.
That really is incredible you picked the perfect color and I am super excited for you and how awesome it is to already have the breaking-in period over!
One thing to note about the tire pressure, do it in the shade or in the morning when the tire rubber and the air are cool, and make sure it says 60/70 in the tire monitor on your screen when you toggle the right dial on the steering wheel.
Because the truck would've come from the dealer with 60 pounds in the front and 70 in the back and if you drop it that 7 to 8 pounds what will happen is because of the heat wave, and ashfault temp the air pressure and tire temperature increases and it will go back up to where you started with.
Some folks think that the reading is off so they'll reduce it more, and then the tires get a little too soft.
I even noticed with the 60 and the 70 originally that even those temperatures would increase substantially to 68 / 78 from driving around.... it's just a summer thing. I hope that helps
Thanks for watching and CONGRATS!
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial , thanks for the tire pressure tip. I did it in the evening over the weekend, and you are correct, it does rise substantially when driving. I've had it a little over a week, and by the end of the weekend will have a little over 2K miles on it between work trips and going to visit family this weekend. So far I am very impressed!
Nice video, thanks for taking the time to create it. I'm just over a year on a 2024 2500 AT4, about 35k miles. I concur with much of what you said - appearance, ride quality, tire pressure, leather quality, etc. I am often doing 3-4 hour commutes and this truck is very comfortable - floating along as you described it is pretty accurate. It tows my large boat with ease.
That being said GM really dropped the ball in my mind with the interior "tech" and driver interface. I often tell people that it looks like it was crafted by Thor's hammer on the outside and laid out by a drop out in their parents basement on the inside.
The inexcusable gear shift screen block and lazy use of the center console space (and 1500 knob shifter location). The location of the hazard, tailgate, etc. buttons are prone to be hit right by the storage. The sunroof has to be closed to be opened fully. Until fixed, my tailgate was dropping while in motion with no warning. The Google driven subscription required interface is terrible. It is a lazy cop out instead of creating a system for the truck, it is essentially a 4+ year old Kindle. It is Android 10, which is years old and not even supported by Google anymore. It allows almost zero customization, color changes, outside apps and uses 2/3 of the screen with the remainder being a digital analog clock or Google home page. Can't get Maps or roadway speeds without a subscription and despite shutting off many of these apps, you are still prompted frequently to "subscribe". I didn't buy a google truck! Unfortunately Google Auto is just as bad, but I was able to fix the screen by installing a stand alone Android box which makes the screen and interface what it really should be. The interior lighting is terrible, no glove box lights, no door lights or other meaningful ambient lighting. Just 4 small dome lights. Inability to change chimes (or remove them), inability to access the turn signal camera unless you are connected to a trailer. The bed plug is worthless for anything over probably 5 amps (power tool charger or something). I could go on, but you get the idea.
Truly a love / dislike for me. I'd give it a 7 out of 10, the exterior appearance, comfort, ride quality and towing capability making up all of that score. They could have easily had a 10+ if they had just properly done the interior updates and tech instead of just slapping on a screen with an outdated operating system.
Thanks for sharing all that! 👍
I like your analogy.... did you have a chance to watch the "10K miles later" video I did on the truck, I covered a bunch of what you mentioned... and yes GMC can SSO create a 10 with a few tweaks.
Each brand had its sweet spots, there are things I love about each HD truck.... but the looks and road presence of the GMC are by far the best.
Thanks for watching 👍
Denali is the best truck on the road. Very nice and looks are killer. I will be trading my RAM for the 2025 AT4 2500, I can’t wait.
Agree the road presence is strong! Congrats in advance on the move! 👊💥
You do a great job with your videos, explaining from a real owner perspective. I appreciate that as I shop for a new 2500.
Makes me glad to hear! THANKS!
Drive the Ultimate, Denali, and AT4 back to back.... that way you connect how each one is tailored to meet different needs...There is such great stuff out there, whatever you decide I'm excited for you!
Thanks for watching 👍
Just installed a Lomax Stance Diamond Plate Bed cover on my 2024 Sierra. Really happy with the fit. Allows me to open 1/3 , 2/3rds and fully open with it folded up behind the rear window with locking system to allow the full bed available and travel down the road at 70 mph.
....hmmmm OK I need to check that out!
Thanks so much for the idea!
👍😎
Great truck, I would definitely consider the Banks Tuner, pedal Monster and Ram intake, makes a huge difference in power and fuel efficiency.
YES YES and YES!! need it all 👊💥😎🚀
Boy I can’t wait to get this truck
You'll love it! It's amazing!
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial I can only imagine
Awesome content!
THANK YOU!
I think you chose a great truck. Thanks for the review.
I got my 2024 Duramax Sierra 3500 CC X31 in May of 2023. I now have 21k for mileage and love the truck. The tailgate is great. Didn't think I needed and boy was I wrong. My best mileage was 26 on a 200 mile road trip. I'm getting about what you are overall.
Thanks for the video.
Awesome truck! Well done and congrats!
That 26 has crept up a few times...I'll reset some trips and find the sweet spot rpm/mph to maximize it.
Thanks for the comment and for watching 👍
I have the Tricoat white SRW 3500 and clear-bra’d the front, ceramic coated the paint, decked system in the bed and will be getting an ARE topper.
Everything you wrote is AWESOME! Great setup!
ARE seems to be the cleanest-looking topper.
Clear the front, ceramic, and the decked are all
very smart add-ons.
WELL DONE😎
Thanks for watching 👍
Ive seen a video where this detail company clear bra'd an entire 2019 Denali 2500, with black paint. Something to consider. Beautiful truck by the way! 🙌
I do think that is a smart move for sure! I have a friend that has a high end PPF company... I'll be sure to ask him about that.
Thanks for the info! 🙏🏼
I installed a Diamondback HD bed cover on my 3500 Ultimate and LOVE it. Love the look and the function. Easy access to the front of the bed, able to ratchet down kayaks to the top of the bed cover (and walk/stand on the bed cover) Highly recommend.
Diamondback is on the top of my list..... I just looked at it again, 😎and I think you're right it seems to be the best all around, and SUPER rugged!
Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching 👍
Great looking truck 👍
Thanks so much! 👊🏻💥
And thanks for watching 👍🏼
On my 2020 Sierra 1500 I like my multi function tailgate even though I don't have speakers in it.
Such an awesome truck! Congrats...Hard to beat the Sierra 1500!
I on 2019 Denali with the tailgate traded and get 2020 Denali with the tailgate traded again for 2023. thumbs up with the tailgate brother, nice truck though
I test drove a 2024 GMC 2500 Denali Ultimate and within 10 miles of the test drive I said nope. The seats were like sitting on boards. Way to uncomfortable for me. I ended up buying a Ram 2500 Limited with a Cummins. I definitely made the right choice. Ten times more comfortable than the GMC and I get 24 mpg on the highway and 21 in town.
You bought an amazing truck! You are right the one thing GMC could have done better is to make the seats softer. They have not been an issue for us, but having had so many luxury vehicles I get it. The New 25' RAM Tungsten addition is said to be almost Mercedes S class comfort.
Let the seat wars begin! All the brands will have to chase that.
Thanks for watching and congrats on your RAM!
About bought one last year. Decided to keep my gasser for a while longer cuz it’s low mileage and it’s not worth anything because of its year. When I’m ready I find the gmc to be the best mix of what I need
Smart... Yeah and give it a couple years for it to take the hit then grab it at the right price.
Thanks for watching 👍
We are looking at this vs the SuperDuty Platinum. Biggest concerns are the seat comfort and visibility over the hood. The Ford seems to slope more making it easy to see where your front end it when parking. And every review I have seen complains about the seats being too firm. Any feedback on those issues?
I’m a Ford guy and occasionally drive my bosses 2500 Duramax. The seats are ok, but my biggest complaint of most GM trucks is the visibility Sucks compared to looking down the hood of the Ford.
The visibility I have no problem with at all, it's easy to maneuver and it's never even been something that I've had to think about.
I'm not sure about the 24 Ford I have to drive them back to back to compare. The seats are on the firmer side compared to the other two brands but they are better than my 22, 20, or 17 that I had.
I am a luxury car guy so seats are a big deal but everything else on this truck is so great it did not steer me away from the purchase.
With what Ram is doing with the new tungsten edition and Ford's seats being great also, GMC will be addressing this soon I'm sure.
the one thing that is important to remember is the Ford has straight axle front suspension and the GMC has independent so that affects how it rides, and then I lowered the air pressure a bit at my tires.
I've driven it across several states with my whole family and we were not fatigued but yes they are on the firmer side, not uncomfortable, just firmer.
Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍
@@anthonys7534 Totally get it!
Visibility is a BIG DEAL! .... So many vehicles these days have their nose in the air..... add a "leveling kit to it and it's BLIND.
One thing I've Loved about my G Wagons, is they have done an incredible job with the ease of sight and visibility!
Excited to hear what you get!
I’ve had my 2500 Ultimate for 14 months now. No issues, love it but I think I will be going AT4 on the next one.
So awesome..... what's making you lean the AT4 way?
I had a 2020 AT4 2500, LOVED IT!
Thank you for your review. We just picked up our 2024 GMC Denali 2500 HD and noticed that when you turn off the engine, there is some sort of clicking/knocking coming sound coming from under the hood. As if something is reseting itself. Not sure if this is normal or not. Has anyone noticed this on their Denali? Thanks!
There are several things that reset and depressurizes after you shut it off.... also if the truck is running and you hear a mild tick from the outside it's also normal 👍
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial thank you so much for the reply!
Tell me about the new engine vs the vortec thanks,my 2011gmc 2500hd 6.o vortec has 275,000 no issues
I sure hope it last like that 🙏🏼 .... Hard to beat that vortec! 😎
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial change oil every 5k only 2 plug and wire changes,,no smoke ,ect still strong,
I’ve got a 2024 GMC 2500 at4 , also black, as of now I’ve got 38k miles on it, it’s been a great truck, also awesome for traveling, love the tailgate, but after a year of ownership there are some things that had to be fixed , and some things are a bit annoying.
Both of my front calipers were replaced with pads and discs as for some reason it ate up one of the pads 98% and 10% the other one, they’ve failed at different times, so 2 separate trips to the dealer.
Annoying are the mirrors that wobble like crazy on uneven surfaces and wobble even more when extended while towing.🤦🏻♂️
Also I wish interior dome lights would be much brighter, they’re led but now bright enough.
That's crazy about the brakes, especially with such a wide difference.... the dealer should be able to see why one grabs more than the other... or change the pad type altogether, maybe a rotor is ever so slightly warped...?
The wobbling mirrors should have been tightened by them or there is a rubber bushing that is not set right.. 😵💫 I've never had that happen. tell them to fix it or else LOL! 🤪
I agree... the interior lights are a bit dim and one of the reasons My wife traded her 23' Ultimate Yukon for a Denali with a cream interior is she said she couldn't see anything. The light interior made all the difference in the world... But the Ultimate is definitely more for dudes for the cigar, saddle leather feel is light absorbing for sure...
Thanks for watching and congrats on your truck... everyone tells me it has great road presence 👊💥😎
How comfortable are the seats? I just got rid of my 2023 Yukon Denali because the seats were not comfortable!!
The seats are pretty firm. I like fiem seats and like em. If you like softs seats these will not begood for you.
The seats are not good. From work truck up to Denali ultimate. They’re not comfortable. I had to buy cushions for those 4 hour trips. Also my transmission is going out. 2023 chevy hd
The seats are fine, everyone just acting like fn pansey's
They are on the firmer side for sure.... One thing GMC needs to focus on is softer seats across the brand. But I must say they are better than my 17', 20', and 23' GMCs
They haven't given us a problem, but as I responded to another comment earlier, Ram and Ford are forcing GMC to address that.
Our family isn't bothered by it... they have worked well for us, but I must admit, I'm a luxury seat guy....having had many luxury vehicles I get it. But everything else is so good it didn't steer us away.
Thanks for watching 👍
Look at calibrated power / duramax tuner for tuning
Thanks so much! I'll check that out 🙏🏼😎
Wish I could get the Denali ultimate for the interior in gas instead of diesel for the 2500 knock that price down lol so I may get the Denali ultimate 1500 prices are looking good low miles low 60k-62k I have a few ultimate saved lowest I have seen are about 78k.
Smart... prices and deals are getting better for sure.. the 6.2 gas is GREAT! That is a very easy-to-drive and smooth truck, you'll LOVE IT! 👊💥
Do you spend more money in diesel compared to the Gas 1500 model?
The Diesel is a bit more, but the engine RMPs, the effortless work of the engine, and the distance you can go more than makeup for the cost.
Thanks for watching 👍
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial got it, thanks for the reply
Any one know gmc doing redesign for 2025 denali ultimate or going to keep same .. asking because i am buying next week
I know it 😵💫 and that’s a great question. That’s always a tough one. They are announcing some updates to the Silverado HD, but as far as the GMC they haven’t announced it yet.
For 24 the ultimate was packed with everything I doubt they’ll redesign anything that would be too soon it’s probably just some software or tech updates if they do it, but I always wait until I see it on GM authority or straight from GM
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
I have heard that the long strip LED lights under both of the deployable runningboards will go from a segmented LED to more of a solid one, but that’s still unconfirmed
I have a 2021 AT4 1500 with the same tailgate, blows peoples mind that I can open it and have a stereo back there. The non believers are people that cannot afford it, or the truck.
LOL.... Exactly! Love the AT4!
Thanks for the comment and for watching 👍
Wow i am fan of this beast but i live in iran and this is too much expensive for us😢 i hope you enjoy it ❤
Thanks so much! It really is a blessing, I hope you can get one someday! 😎🙏🏼
To funny, my trucks wifi, Is sexy beast!
Stay clear of "tuners" that do not increase line pressure in the trans. Adding power and not tuning the trans to follow suit isn't worth the added slippage. You're not laying the power to the ground and you're just slipping the clutches. Just my .02. Not to mention the emissions and heat side of things. Just a bad idea
Does this car have high fuel consumption?
It's actually not that bad, diesel is a bit more expensive but love the engine.
@@GabrielSedlakOfficialdamn straight!
Innov8 smooth lip wheels G700 , power bed cover👍🏻
OK, now I have to check it out! THANKS 👊
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial also really like the Dee Zee tailgate shock assist with weight of tailgate, and Billie Bars tailgate replacement top!
Some of the comments about more HP are comical. These trucks have more HP than ever. But to each his own.
The same people that cry if ya don't have military grade cameras & your infotainment takes 1.5 seconds over 1.2 seconds get upset over the tailgate having a stereo the way I see it they all should drive Tesla's as they really want a laptop on wheels as we truck guys just like cool trucks
That’s a great perspective the more function that the truck or any vehicle has the better no matter what you say people have opinions. 😵💫
Thanks for the comment and I appreciate youwatching. 👍🏼
The ford super duty actually looks older than the last model. They somehow managed to f things up. The gmc didn’t focus on looking super aggressive. It focused on looking sleek and beautiful and I find when automakers use that formula their vehicle look more timeless.
These are beautiful trucks but who in their right mind would spend $100k on a dumb truck with a bed on it? Total waste of money after it rusts out, dented and scratched up, miles go up. By the time you are done with it its not worth barely anything. I'll always buy a couple years older and as of now.. I'll stick with my 2013. Plus these new ones are built cheap
Perhaps we can all be just like you!
@@TheAndrettiDogon Second thoughts....nope
Glad you have had pretty good luck with your truck. I see so many people with big problems on the gmc and the Chevy seems more reliable according to Consumer Reports. But the gmc looks way better. Still has me looking elsewhere for a towing truck with all the problems not to mention the sticker shock.
Thanks for the comment... you really can't go wrong with any brand. They all make really great stuff these days. Each brand has features I wish I had on this one.... it really is hard to choose, but GMC does have the best road presence.
Excited for whatever you decide..... trucks are such a blessing.
Thanks for watching 👍
You have got to be kidding me. With one year of ownership you don’t know anything about that truck. Reliability..give me a break one year that’s not enough time to tell. Everybody talking shit about the tailgate is warranted..It’s really stupid! (JUST KIDDING LOL) Is that a good example of the haters you’re talking about? 🤣
Well Done! 🤪👊💥 You have it pegged!
@@GabrielSedlakOfficial HAHAAA! 🤣
new rims i so dont like the ones you have
Agree.... they definitely could be better, great for stock but need to be sweetened up for sure! 😎
Gmc junk
