## Overview

The 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE with the Z71 package is a full-size crew cab pickup that does real work. It pairs the proven 5.3L V8 (flex fuel capable) with a 6-speed automatic and a four-wheel-drive system with an electronic transfer case. The SLE trim adds the everyday comforts that matter, including power windows and locks, remote keyless entry, an auto-dimming mirror, a rear vision camera, Bluetooth, SiriusXM and OnStar.

The Z71 package is what sets this truck apart. It brings off-road-tuned suspension, Rancher high-pressure gas shocks, underbody skid plates, front recovery hooks and hill descent control. That makes it a good fit for gravel roads, cottage lanes, job sites and snowy back roads. The crew cab has four full-size doors and a roomy rear seat, so it works for family duty as well as work duty. The short box keeps the truck easier to park and manoeuvre in town.

This truck suits tradespeople, outdoor enthusiasts, families who tow a trailer or boat, and anyone who wants a capable 4x4 without a new-truck price. At 192,573 km, it should be bought with open eyes. Look for service records and have it inspected, as you would with any higher-kilometre truck.

In Ontario, four-wheel drive is useful for lake-effect snow, icy side roads and muddy driveways. At $14,995, this Sierra is an affordable way into a full-size 4x4 crew cab. Silverstone Motors in London, Ontario, is happy to arrange a test drive and answer your questions.

## The story

I like trucks that don't pretend to be something they're not, and this white Sierra is one of those. It's a 2013 SLE with the Z71 package, a 5.3L V8 and four-wheel drive. There's nothing flashy about it. It's built to haul, tow and get you through an Ontario winter without fuss.

It does have kilometres on it, 192,573 of them. I'd rather say that up front than have you find it later. What you get for the money is a crew cab with a comfortable cloth interior, a rear camera, Bluetooth, satellite radio and the Z71 off-road hardware. The skid plates, the Rancher shocks and the hill descent control are all there.

If you want to see it, come by Silverstone Motors in London. Take it for a drive, check the underbody, ask your questions and bring your own mechanic if you like. I'd like you to leave feeling good about the truck, whether or not you buy it.

## Buying tips

• Check the frame, rocker panels, brake lines and underbody for rust. Ontario road salt is hard on trucks of this age, and the Z71 skid plates can hide corrosion.
• Ask for service records and confirm the oil change history. The 5.3L V8 in these trucks can develop oil consumption issues at higher kilometres, so check the oil level and look for any smoke on startup.
• Test the 4WD system. Shift between 2WD, 4Hi and 4Lo and listen for any odd noises from the transfer case or front axle.
• Ask for a vehicle history report and have an independent mechanic inspect the truck. At nearly 193,000 km, check the transmission shifts, the suspension components and the wheel bearings.
