If you’re looking for a truck with a lot of capability, then the 2023 GMC Sierra 3500 is the one to beat. It’ll suit families with extra large campers, people with very large boats, people who need a heavy-duty pickup for work, and many other drivers. Let’s look closer at its capability and at some of its other desirable features.

Strong Engine Options

The standard engine on the 3500 is a 6.6-liter V8 gasoline engine producing up to 401 hp and 464 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with a six-speed heavy-duty automatic transmission that’s electronically controlled.

A V8 turbodiesel engine is also available for people who need something with a little more power. The diesel engine has an output of up to 445 hp and 910 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, can tow up to 36,000 pounds, and can handle up to 7,402 pounds in the truck bed.

Trailering App

Staying safe while hauling is a must, and the in-vehicle trailering app can help you with this. It provides trailer security alerts, electrical diagnostics, and maintenance reminders along with many more useful things. It can help you ensure your trailer is in the best condition possible. There’s also a checklist feature that’ll likely be very helpful before journeys where you’ll be towing.

High-Tech Interior

The Sierra 3500 isn’t just a highly capable beast of a truck. It also provides a driver and passenger experience that the vast majority of people will enjoy. Compatible phones can connect to the 8-inch multitouch infotainment display using wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. You can then use select smartphone apps using the infotainment system. There are multiple USB ports for you to use, too. Best of all, a Wi-Fi hotspot is available in the vehicle.

Under-Seat Storage

If you have cargo you’d like to take with you that you don’t want to put in the truck bed, then you may be able to store it under the three front seats. You can fold down the back of the middle front seat to act as an armrest, too, with storage beneath it. Crew Cab configurations also have under-seat storage in the back so rear-seat passengers can store their belongings safely.

Heated Steering Wheel

Heat up your hands in winter using the heated steering wheel. It heats up at the touch of a button. The outbound seats are also heated, providing additional comfort while driving and taking passengers with you in chilly weather.
