Redesigned alongside the Chevrolet Silverado for 2014, the GMC Sierra is pretty much a clone of the aforementioned Chevy, save for the front end. The version we’re testing here is some sort of well-optioned trim, complete with body-coloured bumpers and shiny alloy wheels, but still stands one level below the chrome-grilled Sierra Denali model.
Car production is an honest process, the Americans would tell you. It’s a simple process, the Japanese will say, and the Germans would go on about how intricate and detailed the process is. But when it comes to after-market assurance, there’s just one word dictating their manufacturing flaws; swift recalls. Recalling faulty vehicles is not unfamiliar in today’s automotive scene. As a matter of fact, millions of vehicles have been recalled in the past and you could see it as a sign that cars are getting safer and manufacturers getting serious about their products.
If the regular GMC Acadia is not nearly enough in terms of equipment, there is the GMC Acadia Denali to up the bling factor. We kept one for a few days to use as family transportation, during Dubai’s worst sandstorm ever, three weeks ago.

The slow-selling GMC Terrain crossover has no place in a truck-centric brand, but it is here to stay, and the girlified line-up expands further with the 2013 GMC Terrain Denali.
General Motors reports that sales of their Chevrolet Suburban increased by 34% this year compared to a year ago. And Chevrolet celebrated 75 years of the full-sizer with a little contest in the Middle East to find the oldest Surburban around.
This “Ironhide” GMC Topkick truck model from the Transformers movies has been sitting on my display shelf for a while now. The truck can actually transform into a robot. Now you can win it.
Update: The winner is Anete T. Thomas.
Oil prices are soaring and so is the greed of the local oil companies due to which fuel costs are rising. The massive impact from the recession has hit hard on the brains of the crowd; in fact so hard that their vision of the future is now so short term. As a result, this has led to many people playing “safe” by not falling prey to huge debts and its aftermath. They make more sensible choices and judge their financial stands way better. The recent increase in the number of econo-sedans and crossover jokes is a proof to this.
