The 2 year search for just the right truck (for me) finally came to a close last week. GMC was offering $6,000 in rebates on the 2023 Denali with 5.3L if you had a qualifying trade-in. There was also a $1,000.00 Costco member discount. They gave me what I wanted for 2013 trade-in, so it was a great deal overall. Ended up with 5.25% financing for 48 months from my local CR. Not terrible.
Found this one with pretty much the exact options I wanted and needed, but without some of the extra frills (GMC power steps, sunroof) that I didn't. This thing has more camera views than an NSA facility. The first thing I did was remove the factory 6" running boards (hate 'em) and had some Amp Research PowerSteps with SS trim installed. Going to add a leveling kit to eliminate the rake, a hard tonneau cover, and a Range Disabler to turn Auto Start/Stop and AFM. And I suppose I'll be buying a B&W hitch that is designed to work with the MultiPro tailgate since it won't fully deploy with a regular hitch.
I'm very happy with the 5.3L performance. Runs much stouter than my 2013 did. All the power I'll ever need. I'm a lucky man. As my wife said, Merry Christmas.
