Here are all the negative points i have found driving the

Here are all the negative points i have found driving the first few thousand miles with my 2026 gmc sierra elevation. 1. Terrible stock windshield wipers 2. Windshield Defroster doesnt cover the edges well 3. Radio cuts out sporadically. 4. If there is any ice caught in door handles after you get in , you get trapped in the truck because mechanism doesnt reset. 5. Poor quality interior parts. (Minor defects/ scratches. 6. Cant turn off Auto start/stop. 7. Tiny gastank (20gal) 8. Weak window motors compared to ram 9. Weak wiper motors compared to ram 10. Aerodynamics of hood cause any melting snow or ice to spray windshield (never encountered this on any of the other dozen trucks ive owned). 11. Electronics are finicky, they dont work sporadically so its hard to diagnose. 12. Leather is cheap and stretched/worn already on the driver seat. 13. Very small and inefficient center console. 14. Large gaps (holes) where rear seatbelts plug in causing things to constantly fall down there and get lost. 15. Poor storage under rear seat(see aftermarket fix.) 16. No return policy. Lol Positive features. 1. I like the phone charger 2. Decent rims

A little expensive, but comfortable, quiet, smooth ride. Great performance out of the 6.2L and better than expected fuel economy in the low 20s. Outstanding interior and good looking exterior, especially in the Downpour Metallic color. I don’t have 700 miles on it yet and have owned it for 3 weeks. Therefore, I can’t pass judgement yet on the reliability, but so far I am very satisfied. This replaced an 8 year old Ford F150 that served me quite well with only a couple of issues in the 100,000 plus miles.
