 GMC SIERRA 1500 VS FORD F-150

Ford has been in the market for providing impressive, tough trucks that can handle a lot. That doesn't mean the GMC Sierra 1500 lacks for power and performance to rival that of the Ford F-150. While the base V6 in the Sierra 1500 offers less horsepower but more torque than the base engine on the Ford F-150, the available V8 engine blows the Ford option out of the water. The Ford's V8 offers 400 horsepower and 410 pound-feet torque, which pales in comparison to the GMC Sierra 1500's 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque with its 6.2-liter V8.

Getting a truck that manages to handle the challenges that come your way is important and that includes the convenience of using your cargo bed. The GMC Sierra 1500 offers a world-first six-function MultiPro™ Tailgate which opens in a variety of ways to give you access to your cargo bed with ease. The Ford F-150 doesn't offer this convenience so it's just a bit harder to make use of it. The GMC Sierra 1500 also offers best-in-class cargo box volume with 89.1 cubic feet of cargo space while the Ford only gets up to 77.4 cubic feet with its eight-foot cargo bed. The interior of the new GMC Sierra 1500 is also equally spacious with more front head and legroom in its crew cab than any other model in the lineup.

 GMC SIERRA 1500 VS. CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500

The similarities are a bit harder to find with the Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500. They offer comparable engine packages with outputs and performance credentials that are exactly the same as the other model. On taking a closer look, you can discover exactly how the two are different by climbing inside and checking out what the interior has to offer. While the amenities and features are pretty identical, the GMC Sierra 1500 is built with higher-quality materials than the Chevrolet lineup, so that a base model Sierra 1500 is on the same level as the Silverado 1500's mid-level trim configuration. It's worth noting that the new GMC Sierra and Chevy Silverado 1500 both come available with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so staying connected as you travel around Archbald and Scranton is easy with both of these new full-size pickup trucks.

 GMC SIERRA 1500 VS. RAM 1500

The RAM 1500 is one of the more luxurious options to choose from and it comes complete with powerful engine options that you might not be able to match anywhere else. That being said, the GMC Sierra 1500 does outperform the RAM 1500 when it's properly equipped. The 6.3-liter V8 handily outdoes the 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 option with more horsepower and more torque. The GMC truck is controlled by a ten-speed automatic transmission while the RAM truck only offers an eight-speed automatic transmission. The GMC Sierra 1500 again offers the MultiPro™ Tailgate with multiple ways to access the cargo bed. While the new Ram 1500 recently maneuvered itself to compete with its own so-called "Multifuntion Tailgate", it lacks comparable functionality to the MultiPro™ Tailgate that the GMC Sierra 1500 offers. Plus, the Ram 1500 lacks wireless support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
