Heavy-duty trucks have always had a pretty consistent buyer. When you look for a 3500 Heavy Duty truck, there are a few things that you’ll want to look for. The 3500 heavy duty is known for having a Duramax diesel engine and one of the largest payloads of its class. Electric issues are common on these trucks and the limited edition Quadrasteer models had a lot of issues as well which made the trucks expensive to repair. Interior derailments would happen in this generation of the truck as well, such as sensors in the seats and the AC condenser.

The Sierra 3500 was the first upper-end GM truck to feature a Denali trim level, and if you want to deal with the electric gremlins that this truck would experience then this body style was the best way to go.
