2026 vs 2027 questions
Will a 2026 be worth less at trade-in?
Every new truck loses value, and model year plays a part. The savings on a 2026 are real money up front, though. Ask us and we’ll show you both trucks’ numbers side by side.
Is the 2026 still a new truck?
Yes. Every 2026 here is new, never titled, with the full GMC new-vehicle warranty. [VERIFY WARRANTY WORDING]
When will the 2027 be here?
GMC expects the 2027 Sierra 1500 in late 2026. Reserve one and we’ll contact you as soon as yours is assigned.
Can I see both before I decide?
Come drive a 2026 today. When 2027s arrive, we’ll set you up to drive one too. No pressure either way.
