2008 GMC Sierra, CarAndDriver Consumer Review

Source: Car and Driver

Mileage: 2500 Style: Sierra 1500 Owned Before: This is my first time owning a vehicle of this make. Pros Great performance and MPG. Handles and rides like its on rails. Cons Regular cab not available with the 6.0L or upscale dash, due to the seating configuration. Review I love this truck, and look forward todriving it on a daily basis. I travel 190 miles a day to and from work, and would buy this same truck again! Read More

Other Choices:

In the field of full-size trucks, brand loyalty is an especially strong factor, with die-hards for the bow tie or the blue oval. But objectively, next to the F-150, the Silverado offers better steering and sharper handling, though some might like the F-150's interior design, which is more businesslike yet still upscale. Styling is a big differentiator; the Sierra has a softer design, while the other competitors have the more aggressive, faux-semi look in front. Fuel economy is a strong point for the Sierra; with the 4.8- or 5.3-liter engines, it gets better ratings in city and highway driving than all of its rivals with similar-sized engines--at a time when every mile per gallon really counts. The 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 has one or two fewer gears than the Tundra. The Tundra--especially in top-trim versions--is especially competitive with the Silverado, as it offers a comfortable, classy interior and 5.7-liter V-8 that's more powerful than GM's 6.0-liter.
