So today I just happened to see a gmc trunk organizer for $20 and decided to take a chance on it. it fits so good! It’s well made and 30x18 and has places where I can attach carabiners to straps to secure it to the trunk d rings. It also has carrying handles and you can lay the dividers flat if you want one big box. Plenty of room in the back behind the organizer for a pump or other things too.
I will soon be in the market for a new vehicle. I really want to get something that I can use as my daily driver for work (my commute is long - approx 42 miles) and also to trailer my horses on a one a week/every other week basis (trails are all around 50 miles away).
I don’t want a gas truck due to bad gas mileage and how long my daily commute is. That’s why an EV truck is so appealing. My trailer seems within the tow capacity of the Sierra EV. But there isn’t too much info online about towing horse trailers with EVs, and a lot of people talk about how the range while towing is awful.
Is it really THAT bad? Is it bad enough that I couldn’t safely do around 100 miles round trip towing the trailer without having to charge?
Anybody within the past year purchase from a dealer in Northern California? What type of deal below MSRP are you seeing? And what the best dealers to work with? Both in regards to purchasing & servicing the vehicle? I live in Oakland. This will be my 3rd EV.
Has anyone had this come up? What was the issue? Quick fix?
Is the GMC logo supposed to be lit anytime the truck is on day or night?
My previous EV experience is with a Model 3 and a Model Y. When you were charging those, you generally couldn’t tell. They are silent unless you just got done driving in the Texas summer and instantly plugged it. Then a fan may come on during the charging.
With my Sierra, it will kick on a fairly loud fan when I’m charging in my garage overnight. The truck isn’t warm when I start charging, but throughout the night it will get warm and warm the area around it. I’m charging at 9.6kW so not even the max power.
Anyone see any awesome updates that would make it worth waiting another 6 months?
So far it's looking much better! Way better than the old version. Google Maps integration. Charging stations are now clearly labeled by port (though this still needs to be updated as some units use A/B rather than 1/2). UI looks much more refined. For some reason, the public charger that I normally use would not detect/accept tap from my Apple Wallet (I did not have my physical RFID card on me as it's broken ☹️). I had to initiate the charge directly from the app today. I'll have to play around with this new route planning *beta* tool to see if it's any good. I imagine the CarPlay app will be much more useful if so, especially on iOS 27 (not that it applies to us Sierra EV/Silverado EV owners...thanks to GM! 😒)
Anyone else try it out? What do you think so far? I like it! This seems like a step in the right direction at first glance. Good job, Chargepoint!
Been missing my cards and ID for a week or 2 now. Did you know, that there's a hidden space in the center console that goes all the way up to the front.
I’m planning to list my truck on SwapALease but thought I reach out here first.
2025 GMC Sierra EV Denali Max Range ($100,990 sticker) which was driven by the owner of the dealership (demo).
Lease takeover can be easily executed with GM Financial. I’m located in Naples, Florida and will only consider someone from Florida.
Lease terms:
Start Date: 04/26/26
Miles at Start: 3,987
Months: 24
Mileage: 15,000 (30K Total)
Allowable Mileage: 33,987
Lease Maturity Date: 04/26/28
Monthly Payment: $894.95 plus Tax $53.60 (Total: $948.65)
This lease is probably one of the best deals for a Max Range Denali at the mileage allowed for only 24 months. I’m currently at 7,200 miles now. I’m planning on letting it go around 10K miles or sooner if timing is cooperative.
I’m asking for $3,000 to have this deal, I placed a $4,500 down payment at the dealership. Clean Title & CarFax, can provide.
I’ve also installed OEM All Weather Floor Mats and OEM Sunroof Sunshade and have both NACS to CCS adapters for Level 3 Charging at Tesla Superchargers and another adapter for Level 2 Charger if you have a Tesla charger at home. I also installed ceramic tints to all 4 windows and rear glass. Over $1,000 on these items.
If interested please send me a DM even if you’re not interested at the moment but willing in the near future.
I live in a hot climate. It doesn't happen every time, but maybe 1 out of 4 times I turn on the truck with the AC in AUTO, the system only sends air out through the window vents. I can disable AUTO, direct the manual AC to blow out of the face and feet vents, but it doesn't change anything with the air system. The air continues to blow from the window vents only. It's so frustrating on a hot day when I didn't think ahead to have the app start climate control ahead of time.
Any one experienced this? The only fix I could find was to turn off the eco-climate control function, which I did. The behavior above persists.
Appreciate any help. (I am trying to avoid taking it to the dealership service dept, they said they'd need it a few days to diagnose and fix - didn't want to do that yet until I exhausted all my resources first in case there is a simpler fix)
What experiences have people had with the onboard inverter and travel trailers? We’re in the market for both an EV truck and trailer, and we were under the assumption PowerBase would be more than sufficient for a small 23’ type travel trailer with an A/C unit. People on X are saying the voltage sag is too low though and won’t be useful for powering a travel trailer when off grid. Is that true? Pic of a travel trailer in the class we are looking at.
Android 14 with Gemini here. I noticed when I receive a text message (iPhone) the message is read with one voice and then the voice prompt to respond and reading my message back to me is in a different voice.. anyone have a solution?
I'm considering the AT4 with the max battery. GMC is claiming 478 miles. I'm sure that's in perfect conditions driving at the exactly right speed. I'd like to hear what you are all getting realistically? Also let me know if you're driving just like you would in an ICE vehicle or trying to keep speeds at the sweet spot for range.
So, we just wrapped up our trip to Hilton Head, SC. We did this same trip back in July 2023 with our Rivian R1S quad and a smaller trailer. I have a video coming later today, but wanted to share interesting observations about the charging costs and the comparison to gas & diesel.
>!​!<Spoiler for the video the trip was much less stressful than the 2023 trip for sure. Not because the Rivian did a bad job towing but because the charging infrastructure availability and lack of reliability was much worse in 2023 vs now.

Coming from a Rivian R1T I always had a plug in cooler in the bed of my truck filled with beer, and sparkling water. The Rivian would have a 72 hour timer that I would reset every couple of days to stay on 24/7. With my 25 RST I'm not finding a solution that would work. The Power Bank would only run 24 hours when your not driving, and when I'm driving there seems to be no power in the bed. I found out the plug cover in the rear has to be up for you to get power, but I lose the power.
Does anyone here have a 24/7 cooler setup in their bed.
Thanks
With my need car points and the 25% off, I was able to get the speakers for 386... just a heads up as I think the coupon is expiring
Just received this update, not sure if it’s older. Anyone notice improvements after updating?
