ROOMIER
CABS, MORE DRIVER-FRIENDLY FEATURES, POWER INCREASES UNDERSCORE
SIERRA AND SIERRA HD'S PROFESSIONAL-GRADE LEADERSHIP
GMC's 2004
Sierra and Sierra HD full-size pickups prove once again why they
are their respective segments' premier series of trucks. New for
2004 are a roomy and comfortable half-ton 1500 Series Crew Cab
in two- or four-wheel drive, a three-quarter-ton 2500 Series Crew
Cab rated at 8,600 pounds GVWR and available in either two- or
four-wheel drive, and a one-ton 3500 Series single-rear-wheel
model rated at 9,900 pounds (4,491 kg) GVWR available as a 4WD
long-box in Regular, Extended or Crew Cab configurations.
"From
the 1500 crew cabs to single-rear-wheel trucks with one-ton work
capabilities, Sierra is poised to completely redefine the premium
truck market in 2004," said Sierra Marketing Director Sam
Mancuso. "With the addition of a true half-ton Crew Cab and
the maneuverable, single-rear-wheel one-ton, GMC now offers a
complete line of Professional Grade products to fill the needs
of practically every truck buyer."
Crew cabs
galore
By far the biggest news for Sierra in 2004 is the 1500 Crew Cab.
These Crew Cab models are available with SLE or SLT trim in two-
or four-wheel drive with a new 5-foot, 8-inch (1.7-meter) cargo
box that permits easy handling, parking and garageability.
Powered by a standard Vortec 5300 V-8 with 285 horsepower (201
kw) and 295 lb.-ft. (386 Nm) of torque, the new 1500 Crew Cabs
have GVWRs of 6,800 and 7,000 pounds (3,084 and 3,175 kg). With
payloads ranging up to 1,934 pounds (877 kg) and maximum trailering
capability of 8,500 pounds (3,856 kg), they are more than competitive
in handling any light-duty assignment.
Meanwhile, in the three-quarter-ton segment, Sierra's C/K 2500
Series short-box models get additional room to comfortably seat
up to five full-size adults. The 2500 Series Crew Cab models are
now available in either 2WD or 4WD, and are rated at a hefty 8,600
pounds (3,901 kg) GVWR.
The new 2500
Series models are ideal for recreational users who tow horse trailers
or campers as well as those who require a cab with four full-size
doors with "big-truck" ride and handling. Their standard
Vortec 6000 V-8 generates a maximum 300 horsepower (224 kw) and
360 lb.-ft. (488 Nm) of torque and couples to a standard Hydra-Matic
4L80-E four-speed automatic transmission.
Three very
Professional Grade 3500's
Also new in 2004 is the 3500 series single-rear-wheel one-ton
Sierra, available in Regular, Extended and Crew Cab configurations
as a 4WD long box, and rated at a no-nonsense 9,900 pounds (4,491
kg) GVWR. These new heavy-duty models, slated for introduction
in the first quarter of 2004, are also available in a chassis
cab, "box-delete" configuration.
The 3500 Series
features a standard Vortec 6000 V-8 and Hydra-Matic 4L80-E four-speed
automatic transmission or, for increased power, customers can
opt for the award-winning Duramax 6600 turbo-diesel or the Vortec
8100 gasoline engine. The new 3500 Series models offer impressive
trailering capability of up to 15,700 pounds (7,121 kg) with a
fifth-wheel or gooseneck trailer and payload-carrying capability
of up to 4,239 pounds (1,923 kg).
The new available
single-rear-wheel (SRW) axle makes the 4WD 3500 Series models
ideal for customers who need one-ton capabilities in an easier-to-maneuver
configuration. Sierra C/K3500 dual-rear-wheel models, rated at
11,400 pounds (5,171 kg) GVWR, will continue to be available in
Regular Cab, Extended Cab and Crew Cab configurations for those
who need the extra payload capacity.
The new K3500
Series Chassis Cab (box-delete) models offer the easier-to-maneuver
single-rear-wheel configuration to customers who require one-ton
capabilities with special service bodies. These trucks also have
a standard G80 locking rear differential for increased traction,
when required. A 4.10 axle ratio is standard with the Vortec 6000
and Vortec 8100 and a 3.73 axle ratio, standard with the Duramax
6600. The new one-ton SRW trucks use a specially designed three-stage
multi-leaf rear suspension and custom shock absorption system
to provide the optimal combination of ride, performance and handling.
Work Truck
Package available across the board
For the first time, the Work Truck Package is available on all
Sierra and Sierra HD models. It features a unique front-end appearance
that sets it distinctly apart from other trim levels. Meanwhile,
all base models have an attractive chrome grille-surround, chrome
steel wheels, a chrome rear bumper and cruise control as standard
equipment. More chrome throughout the model lineup enhances the
truck's premium look.
New 17-inch
aluminum wheels with low-rolling-resistance tires are now available
on four-wheel drive 1500 Series pickups. And, the optional Z82
trailering package available on both Sierra and Sierra HD for
2004 offers everything customers need for safely towing larger
trailers in a single package, featuring items such as a heavy-duty
hitch platform, an integrated electric brake connection, wiring
harness, and a high-capacity air cleaner.
Improved
safety
1500 Series pickups feature improved safety with a right front
passenger safety-belt reminder, which lets the passenger automatically
know via a chime and indicator light if their safety belt hasn't
been fastened. This system complements the automatic passenger-sensing
air-bag system (first introduced in 2003) that automatically deactivates
the passenger-side air bag under certain conditions to help protect
smaller occupants. The system assesses whether the occupant in
the seat is an adult or child, based on the measured weight in
the seat cushion and tension in the belt system. If these measurements
are typical for a small occupant or child in a booster seat, for
example, the air bag is automatically disabled. An indicator light
in the rearview mirror lets the driver know if this system is
on or off.
Great sound
and entertainment systems
Sierra's family of radios ranges from the base radio/CD unit with
a four-speaker system to an integrated AM/FM radio with a six-CD
changer, RDS readout and a Bose Sound System with six speakers
and a subwoofer.
The OnStar
safety and security system is available on SLE trim levels and
standard on SLT trim levels and on the Denali. For nationwide
listening capability, customers can upgrade to the available XM
Satellite Radio (continental U.S. only) package. In addition,
the Denali and all SLT trim models feature a standard six-disc
in-dash CD changer coupled to a premium Bose six-speaker sound
system with sub-woofer, AM/FM radio, cassette and remote. Available
RDS (Radio Data System) audio receivers allow vehicles to receive
information such as station call letters, music genre, emergency
broadcasts, song titles and other information.
Crew Cab models
offer an optional rear seat DVD entertainment system. The DVD
system includes a 7-inch (178-mm) screen, flip-down, color liquid-crystal
display and the capability of playing studio-quality audio/video
in both CD-audio and DVD formats and includes two sets of wireless
(infrared) headphones with independent volume control, a wireless
remote control and three sets of auxiliary video and audio inputs.
