Does anyone out there have a Denali? As of right now it looks as though i am going to get one. I was wondering what everyones opinion on them is. How well do they run? How well will the tranny(4L65E) hold up to mods? etc etc.

04 Sierra Denali
Blown,Cam'd,stall'd etc.
I have a Denali truck, and I have long tubes, no cats, a magnaflow, and a custom tune and it runs very good for how heavy it is.
I like them too, AWD, 6.0, 4L65E, good setup stock! Hell, they have 4.10:1 gears stock too. It's a slick truck.
I've seen ILLNALI's in person, it's trick on the interior also. Chrome handles, Denali specific cluster, etc.

Let's face it, the red hair... makes 'em wet.
I've done many mods on the SS trucks and I thought they rode really nice. Then I installed a charger on a Denali, wow, that is one nice truck. It felt like caddy and it was pretty quick.
I say go get it, You won't be dissapointed,
later,

I've always liked that setup since the Sierra C3's. They are great trucks and as fancy as a Caddie. I thought about a Sierra Denali and even looked at one. but the price tag was kinda steep.

I've sure enjoyed my C3! 3 yrs and counting with no trouble. Currently it has duals with an x-pipe and dumps, K&N, and a custom tune. Long term plan is to stroke it to a 408 and build the tranny to handle it.
