GMC Sierra was named the 2016 Texas Truck Showdown Towing Champion

It may come as no surprise that trucks are quite popular in Texas. When it comes to US roads, Texas leads the way with more than 300,000 total miles of roads and streets. That's not including the back roads in the Texan countryside. With so much terrain to cover, it's no wonder way Texans rely on capable trucks to commute. 

But what truck is the best option for truck lovers in Texas? Well, that'd be the GMC Sierra. The GMC Sierra was named the 2016 Texas Truck Showdown Towing Champion, in a head-to-head capability test conducted by editors from MrTruck.com, PickupTrucks.com, and Cars.com. 

The Sierra went head-to-head against the Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition with the 5.7L V-8, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn with the 5.7L V-8, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ with the 5.3L V-8, Ford F-150 Lariat with the 3.5L V-6 EcoBoost and came out on top! Beating the competition with its powerful – 420 hp and 460 lb-ft – engine; the most powerful engine out of the group. The Sierra beat the competition in fuel economy, with a trailer attached, as well. 

The editors of the 2016 Texas Truck Showdown praised the Sierra 1500 SLT test truck, for its effortless performance. It offered a max trailering rating of 12,000 lbs. PickupTrucks.com editor, Mark Williams, had the following to say about the GMC Sierra's performance, "This is a mild-mannered pickup that is ready to don its cape and do some heavy lifting, saving the day from a long list of work chores. The engine and transmission are synced up like a smooth-flying jet rocket." 

Being crowned the 2016 Texas Truck Showdown Towing Champion validates everything GMC stands for: powerful truck capability uniquely coupled with premium appointments and refinement. Combined crafted interior with bold new styling for 2016, the Sierra handles the toughest tasks in the utmost comfort. 

The 2016 Sierra 1500 boasts a bold new look thanks to a new grille, new headlamps with GMC signature LED lighting, available LED tail lights, and distinctive trim elements designed for each trim level. 2016 Sierra HD models are also available with a new Digital Steer Assist system, which eases driving and maneuvering a heavy-duty pickup. 

While there's no shortage of truck lovers in the Lone Star state, over the border, here in Oklahoma, we’re seeing an increasing number of truck fans. Northeast Oklahoma, in particular, is commonly known has Green Country, but might soon be known as Truck Country. As America’s fastest growing GMC dealer, we’ve seen the popularity of the GMC Sierra explode here in the sooner state. The GMC Sierra is Ferguson Buick GMC’s highest selling model. 

Although we’re based in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, we can serve both Oklahoma and Texas. Take a look at some of our recent GMC Sierra owners from both Oklahoma and Texas: 

Tim and Amanda Miller drove 7 hours - from Austin, TX to Broken Arrow, OK - to pick up their brand-new 2016 GMC Sierra Denali at Ferguson Buick GMC!
 

Charles Young came from Glenpool, Oklahoma to Broken Arrow, OK to purchase their new 2016 GMC Sierra SLT. Mr. Young had the following to say about their Ferguson Buick GMC experience, "Jack Jewell [our sales rep] was great! You have a customer for life! Finance didn't take forever like other dealerships. Very impressed! If I wasn't interested in any extra packages or rims he didn't push them on me. That's what I was impressed with the most."

2015 GMC Canyon Earns Ward’s 10 Best Interiors Trophy 

For its well-appointed interior, the 2015 GMC Canyon midsized truck was named a Ward's 10 Best Interiors for 2015. The award is based on Wards Auto, automotive trade publication, evaluation of 42 new U.S.-market vehicle interiors and their rankings of elements such as comfort, materials, value, design harmony, fit-and-finish, and ergonomics. 

Details such as authentic aluminum trim, soft-tough materials, high-quality stitching, and 4G LTE capabilities impressed the automotive publication. Other features found on the 2015 GMC Canyon, such as multiple USB ports and seats designed for long-haul comfort are thoughtful elements that are essential for active-lifestyle customers. Whether drivers are navigating through Tulsa city traffic or enjoying adventures in Oklahoma's back country, the interior was carefully considered to suit your needs. 

GMC Canyon Wins Cars.com Midsize Pickup Challenge

Additionally, a pickup truck shopper unaffiliated with Cars.com tested each of the trucks for overall ride, comfort and features. 

The Canyon’s premium design, materials, and quiet cabin make it a maneuverable solution for customers who want the capability of a pickup with the modern amenities customers expect from GMC. Canyon’s cabin is comfortable, exceptionally quiet, precisely crafted, and designed to the highest standards. One look inside and it’s clear why this truck is the only premium midsize pickup worthy of all these awards and accolades. 

GMC Canyon is Autoweek’s Best of the Best Truck 

In addition to winning Cars.com Midsize pickup challenge and being named a Ward's 10 Best Interiors for 2015, the all-new Canyon also claimed Autoweek's Best of the Best Truck Autoweek evaluates eight vehicle finalists for top value, build quality, design, and performance to distinguish which truck is the "Best of the Best." 

“Of the hundreds of vehicles Autoweek tests each year, only a relative few truly stand out from the rest,” said Autoweek editor Wes Raynal.

Success Continues for the GMC Sierra & the 2015 Sierra Elevation Edition

It's hard to believe but it has been 17 years since the first GMC Sierra pickup truck touched down on American roadways. In that time span, the GMC Sierra has evolved to become the most powerful light duty pickup on the market. It's a truck that signifies GMC's tradition of Professional Grade. The GMC Sierra is our favorite pick up, and seems to be increasingly the favorite in Oklahoma as well.

The capabilities offered by the 2014 GMC Sierra and the new 2015 GMC Sierra are resonating with truck owners not just in Tulsa and Broken Arrow. The pickup's popularity has grown across the United States. We could talk all day about how impressive the GMC Sierra is, but we'll let the numbers do the talking.

The full-size Sierra pickup posted sales of 22,458 in November, up 57% year over year, marking the model’s best November ever.

A large part to the GMC Sierra's success has been a complete redesign of the pickup back in 2014. There wasn't much more truck lovers could ask for from the 2014 GMC Sierra, and yet GMC has managed to add even more innovation features to the new 2015 GMC Sierra.

The 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 adds an all-new eight-speed automatic transmission to its powertrain roster, enhancing efficiency and refinement while maintaining capability. The 2015 GMC Sierra also adds technologies that enhance connectivity, including Text Messaging Alerts, Siri Eyes Free and new, available OnStar with 4G LTE with a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot.

GMC's U.S. vice president of sales and marketing, Duncan Aldred, had the following to say about the success of the GMC Sierra pickup, “As evidenced by our November sales results, customers continue to turn to the Sierra for a pickup truck that’s both strong and stylish." 

2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition

For anyone wanting a GMC Sierra with a little more pizzazz, the new 2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition might be exactly what you're looking for. The new 2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition is a uniquely styled full-size truck that combines a bold, monochromatic look with the latest connectivity technologies.

Aldred shed some light on the new Elevation Edition Sierra as well noting, “The Sierra Elevation Edition is all about expressive style and technology. Its customized appearance makes it a standout for style-conscious customers, while its technologies help keep them plugged into to their connected lifestyles.” The Sierra Elevation Edition is the perfect work / play truck for Green Country's truck enthusiasts.

Everyone here at Ferguson Superstore knows how much Oklahomans love their pickup trucks. Why not drive the most reliable, the most powerful light duty pickup on the market? The 2015 GMC Sierra pickup is available here at Ferguson Buick GMC. The 2015 Sierra Elevation Edition will soon be arriving at our Broken Arrow dealership. We're Broken Arrow's number 1 customer-voted dealer. Let us show you the Ferguson advantage. Ferguson Buick GMC has what you're looking for!

Revealing of the mid-sized 2015 GMC Canyon Soon Expected

If you follow GMC on their Facebook page, then you might have caught just the second glimpse of the new 2015 GMC Canyon to be revealed. Although, the latest photo released by GMC does not give us much of an insight into the new Canyon design. In this latest teaser photo, all that’s depicted is a faint glimpse of the front fascia, and the new Canyon’s headlights shining through the darkness; just waiting for the full unveiling.

2015 GMC Canyon

GMC is expected to reveal the new truck next week, January 14th, at the Detroit Auto Show. All of us at Ferguson Buick GMC are very excited for the unveiling. 

The mid-sized Canyon will likely borrow some design cues from the 2014 GMC Sierra (that’s a good thing!) and the 2015 Chevy Colorado. The 2014 Sierra has quickly climbed to become a respected leader for truck owners. Although we haven’t seen the entire 2015 Canyon, based off the success of the 2014 GMC Sierra, we know for our Oklahoman customers who find the full-sized pickups a tad bulky, the new Canyon will be a perfect fit. 

GMC trucks deliver the efficiency, capability, power and performance that truly earns the name Professional Grade. 

The 2015 GMC Canyon might also take some cues from GMC’s sister company, Chevrolet; who released their mid-sized pickup, the 2015 Chevy Colorado, earlier this year. The new Colorado has two engine options: 2.5-liter four with 193 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque or a 3.6-liter DOHC V-6 with 302 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. There’s also talk of a possible diesel engine for the 2015 GMC Canyon mid-sized truck. Although, the Canyon will not be the same truck, GM president Mark Reuss has said, “there will be more differentiations between the 2015 Colorado and the 2014 Canyon.” What differentiations exactly? Well, we’ll have to wait and see. 

Here’s the first glimpse of the 2015 GMC Canyon earlier released, which gives us a slightly better look at the new design. The Canyon can be seen on the right, next to the Chevy Colorado on the left.

2015 GMC Canyon and 2015 Chevy Colorado

Follow our blog, and we will let you know all the details about the 2015 GMC Canyon, shortly after the highly anticipated revealing. Stay tuned! 

In the meantime you can browse your 2013 and 2014 GMC trucks in stock, or schedule a service appointment for your vehicle at FergusonBuickGMC/service.

First Trucks to Receive 5-Star Safety Rating

The all-new 2014 GMC Sierra was designed for work. The all-new 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 is the most powerful, most advanced and most refined truck in GMC's history. General Motors has made it a tougher, stronger truck than ever before. With it's 5.3L V8 engine capable of producing 355 HP and 383 lb-ft of torque, the Sierra offers an available class-leading max trailering of 11,500 lbs. However, there is more to this truck than pure power. Not only is Sierra's cabin engineered with innovative tech savvy features, it is also super quiet. The 2014 Sierra rides with more quiet serenity than most family cars and large sedans. And now, the 2014 GMC Sierra is backed by a five-star government safety rating. The all-new 2014 GMC Sierra (along with the 2014 Chevy Silverado) are the first pickups to win a 5-star rating.

The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 are the first pickup trucks to receive the highest possible five-star Overall Vehicle Score for safety since the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration changed its New Car Assessment Program for the 2011 model year.

The updated safety standards, which went into effect in 2011, are more strenuous than the previous NHTSA curriculum and involve collecting both more and more substantial data, reflecting the improved safety inherent in newer vehicles.

The rating, the highest possible score, marks the first time any pickups have achieved that feat since the regulatory agency updated its New Car Assessment Program for the 2011 model year. The Ford F-150 and Ram 1500 pickups both received four-star ratings.

"Safety is as important to truck buyers as it is to car buyers," said Gay Kent, GM general director of Vehicle Safety and Crashworthiness. "Silverado and Sierra set a benchmark for pickup truck safety by offering a full array of advanced features designed to protect occupants before, during and after a collision."

Silverado and Sierra offer fully boxed frames, extensive use of high-strength steel, and several segment-exclusive safety features are available, including Forward Collision Alert, Lane Departure Warning, and Safety Alert Seat.

All-in-all, the 2014 GMC Sierra provides everything you could want in a truck; power, convenience, technology, safety, and an all new look. The '14 Sierra is the perfect Oklahoma truck. Here at Ferguson Superstore, we've fallen in love with the pickup. We decided to take the 2014 GMC Sierra out for a test drive in order to better show off this truck amazing styling and capabilities. Watch the video below for more details on the 2014 GMC Sierra:
