2023 Sierra 2500HD Exterior
If the sheer size of the GMC Sierra 2500HD does not impress you, its bold fascia and beefy bodywork will. Looking at the competition, the Ram 2500 has a more controversial face, while the Chevy Silverado 2500HD is possibly the most aggressive of the bunch. Exterior features on the base Pro trim are sparse but include 17-inch steel wheels and LED daytime running lights. The SLE gets 17-inch alloy wheels and the multi-function MultiPro tailgate with EZ Lift assistance. Higher up in the range, the SLT gains 18-inch alloy wheels and LED cargo-bed lighting, while the Denali rolls on 20-inch polished alloys. The AT4 features high gloss black mirror caps, and the Denali gets a polished exhaust tip, assist steps, and smoked amber LED roof marker lamps, amongst others.

Exterior Colors
A big and bold truck deserves a big and bold color palette, and GMC does not disappoint in this regard. The base model can be finished in your choice of six colors, with Summit White being the only no-cost option. The other five colors on offer cost $495 each and include Cardinal Red, Onyx Black, Pacific Blue Metallic, and Quicksilver Metallic, as well as Forest Metallic - a new color. Last year's Brownstone Metallic has been discontinued. The SLE adds Ebony Twilight Metallic and Cayenne Red Tintcoat, the latter being a pricier $645. The SLT can be painted with a White Frost Tricoat for an additional $1,095, though the AT4 doesn't get the same options; it's only available in Summit White, Onyx Black, Pacific Blue, Forest, Ebony Twilight, and Cayenne Red. The Denali gets exclusive access to Hunter Metallic, which carries a $495 charge. However, this model loses the Brownstone shade - and last year's Carbon Black Metallic is not available on the Denali trim anymore at all.
