Your first engine option is a 6.6-liter V8 with 401 horsepower and 464 pound-feet of torque paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission. It has a maximum payload of up to 7,442 pounds with max trailering of up to 17,400.

No matter which engine you choose, the 2020 GMC Sierra HD is a capable truck with a wide range of features designed to make towing easier and safer. For starters, there’s an enhanced ProGrade Trailering System with 15 different camera views including a transparent trailer view that lets you virtually see through the trailer.

There’s an available In-Command control system, which lets you do things like turn on the air conditioning before you reach your destination so your trailer is cool when you arrive, check the water and holding tank levels, and even monitor fuel levels in trailers with generators. It can be controlled either through the in-vehicle infotainment system or through the myGMC app on compatible smartphones.

The ProGrade Trailering System also includes a trailering app that lets you do a light test without the help of a second person, check the trailer tire pressure, and make sure your trailer is ready to go with a customizable departure checklist. Like the In-Command control system, the trailering app can be accessed through the infotainment system or through the myGMC mobile app. GMC knows you’ll be towing if you buy a heavy-duty truck, so it equipped the Sierra HD with thoughtful features to make the process stress-free.
