The 2009 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE
Truck Crew Cab is one of the most sought after trucks to date, mainly because
it offers power and fuel efficiency while keeping an eye on driving comfort.
There are numerous engine options on offer here, allowing buyers to customize
the truck to suit their needs. The chassis has improved and the upscale
interior definitely adds to the overall thrill of driving this monster.
Engine Power and Performance
There are around 6 engine options
for buyers. The standard is the 4.3 liter V6 engine producing up to 195
horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, while giving out 15 mpg on city roads and
20 mpg on highway roads on the 2 Wheel Drive setting.
With the 4-Wheel Drive setting,
you can get 14 mpg on city roads and 18 mpg on highway roads. Then there is the
4.8 liter V8 engine offering up to 295 horsepower and 305 lb-ft of torque. Both
engine options are adequate for power and fuel economy.
Active Fuel Management
What’s important is the GMC added
its Active Fuel Management system to this pickup truck. It is available in four
different V8 engine options, and it cuts the overall operation of four
cylinders when they are not required; hence, improving the fuel economy.

infotainment system includes Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation
system, allowing drivers to easily download destination models.
