Visalia, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/10/2011 -- Going head to head against the 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 and the 2011 Ford F-350 Super Duty, the 2011 Sierra Denali HD stood out from the rest. Each truck, equipped with a diesel-powered engine, four-wheel drive, and a crew cab pickup underwent track testing and rigorous tow testing on the 11.4-mile Jacumba Grade in Southern California. The winner was determined based on overall power, torque, and performance poise. Perhaps unsurprising to Fresno GMC owners, the Sierra Denali HD was triumphant.

“The 2011 GMC Sierra Denali wins because it does the important truck things well,” Edmunds wrote on Inside Line. “It accelerates, brakes and just plain drives better in just about any situation, towing or not… On top of that, it costs significantly less to buy and it drinks less fuel.”

2011 Sierra Denali Wows Fresno GMC Shoppers

Powered by a Vortec High-Output 6.2L V8 SFI, E85-compatible engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission the 2011 Sierra Denali can conquer just about anything, as proven by Edmunds recent road tests. Its engine boasts 403 horsepower and 417 lbs.-ft. of torque.

The Sierra Denali also comes standard with 20-inch wheels and StabiliTrak Stability Control System, a stability control system with Proactive Roll Avoidance.

Under the hood and throughout the cab, Fresno GMC shoppers will be impressed with its many features. Air conditioning, Bluetooth, cruise control, power everything, auxiliary power outlets, and a tire pressure monitoring system are all standard. The Sierra Denali also boasts some impressive seats with 12-way power front seats with lumbar support, heated cushions, and a 2-position driver memory system. An incredible audio system is also included featuring an AM/FM/XM radio, a 6-disc in-dash CD player, MP3 compatibility, speed-compensated volume controls, and a Bose premium speaker system.

The new 2011 Sierra Denali wasn’t just designed to conquer the road; it was also engineered for safety. Fresno GMC drivers can enjoy peace of mind knowing the truck is equipped with an array of airbags, 4-wheel antilock brakes, and OnStar services for 6 months.

OnStar includes Automatic Crash Response, stolen vehicle assistance, remote door unlock, and Turn-by-Turn navigation so you can keep your eyes on the road.
