Pre-Owned 2010 GMC Sierra 1500 2WD SLE Crew Cab in Dallas, TX

The 2010 GMC Sierra 1500 is a full-size pickup that strikes a balance between rugged work capability and everyday comfort. With the 5.3-liter V8 under the hood, it brings the kind of power and towing muscle that truck owners look for, without completely sacrificing ride quality or fuel efficiency.

Performance & Towing

The standout in this configuration is the 5.3L Vortec V8, pushing out 315 horsepower and 335 lb-ft of torque. Mated to either a 4-speed or a more refined 6-speed automatic transmission (depending on trim), it offers smooth acceleration and plenty of torque for hauling, towing, or just highway cruising.

• Max towing capacity: around 9,500 pounds when properly equipped.

• Fuel economy: Approximately 15 mpg city / 21 mpg highway, thanks in part to GM’s Active Fuel Managementsystem, which deactivates cylinders under light loads to save gas.

It’s worth noting the 5.3 is known for solid long-term reliability - it’s a workhorse, plain and simple.

Ride & Handling

Compared to rivals like the Ford F-150 or Dodge Ram of the same era, the 2010 Sierra rides a bit firmer, especially when unloaded. However, it’s stable, composed, and more comfortable than older generations. Handling is predictable, and 4WD models are confident in snow and light off-road conditions.

If you’re doing serious off-roading, the Z71 Off-Road Package adds upgraded shocks, skid plates, and better tires - a nice option for the more adventurous.

Interior & Features

The Sierra 1500’s cabin is functional and straightforward. Base models are pretty barebones, with vinyl floors and minimal tech, but SLE and SLT trims step things up with cloth or leather upholstery, upgraded sound systems, and optional dual-zone climate control.

Crew Cab models offer legit back-seat space - a big plus if you’re using it as a family hauler or road trip rig. The materials aren’t super luxurious, but they hold up well over time.

Notable available features in 2010:

• Bluetooth

• OnStar with turn-by-turn navigation

• USB audio input

• Remote start (on higher trims)

Reliability & Ownership

The 5.3L engine is well-known for its durability and ease of maintenance. That said, some common issues on the 2010 model year include:

• Oil consumption (especially in early AFM engines)

• Transmission shift flare or hesitation in older high-mileage units

• Suspension wear around 100k miles (ball joints, tie rods, etc.)

Routine maintenance goes a long way, and these trucks often run strong well past 200k miles with proper care.
