I believe both of these are now offered in a sierra SLT. I know remote start is, and think I seen somewhere you can get wifi in a certain upgraded package for the SLE/SLT

Do you have the backup lights?
naw didnt get that.

Toyota gives you free oil change and tire balance and rotation every 5k miles for first 25k. Also 2.9% apr on the 2019 with right credit score. Think the 2018s they give 0%.

2017 GMC Sierra recently. 


same. i traded my 2017 slt on this. Im really happy. Like i saidx outside of the fancy accents inside that the gmc slt had.. i really prefer the toyota. More power, Feels bigger inside. very pleased... nothing against gmc or chevy, i would get another one of those as well

The SLT Premium has everything the Denali does with the following exceptions:

Magnetic ride control
Leather wrapped shifter
Chrome console lid handle
Embroidered headrests
Burnished aluminum trim
Denali Grill, painted bumpers, etc
Denali sill plates

I added some Denail items to my SLT.

Get the Intellibeam headlights! Great feature.

i dont guess i've understood the need for wifi in a vehicle.

if you have a data connection on your phone you obviously dont need it, and any devices without data can tether from your phone.

whats the point exactly?

If you have kids in your vehicle to watch streamed shows or movies.


Make phone calls in the middle of nowhere

Guess what I'm saying is...smartphones already serve as a Wi-Fi host for tablets and such...for those devices that don't have data.

Seems like a gimmick to me

I bought a premium plus back in November and can't imagine what else I would want in a truck outside of maybe a sun roof, but I'd probably never use it so I didn't care.

performed awesome. Being from deep south ms... we had never driven in that kind of snow for long periods of time. Locked it in 4 wheel drive and for the last 100miles on frozen roads and 5ish inches of snow while hauling a trailer loaded with a polaris ranger it did amazing

Oh okay good. I am from the river bottoms of West Central AL and the Black Belt.

Sweet man, bet it was a sure story to talk about to folks. I really want to go on a hunting trip and get away from AL/MS. Would love to hunt caribou, elk, moose, mule deer or bighorn sheep

No wonder trucks are going through the roof on prices....you're driving around in the damn mobile modem. Bluetooth/wifi/satellite radio....I guess I'm an old fart stuck in my ways.

Mine is a Denali diesel . Can't really comment, except to say, my wife's SS Camaro with the 6.2 gets 25-28 mpg, if I don't drive it.

The guys at my work that have Tundras get around 12 mpg. I get around 20 mpg with my diesel, and it will pull a D4 dozer to North Louisiana to the deer camp on the regular, without a hiccup.

Just don’t forget inflation in the numbers. A $30k truck from years ago costs more now even if no luxuries were added
