Pickup trucks in America today are synonymous with hard work and achievement. The GMC Sierra 2500 Denali HD and Ford F-250 Lariat are no exception to this belief. Both of these outstanding pickup trucks feature significant power and engine specifications. Also, the Denali HD and F-250 Lariat each feature a wide array of both interior and exterior features and optional equipment. In addition to power and features, these two exemplary pickup trucks possess impressive body and model specifications. Both the Sierra and F-250 feature extensive cosmetic bonuses inside and outside; however, the Ford F-250 Lariat dominates its competition with its superb engine and power ratings, as well as its superior mechanical specifications. Diesel engines are widely known for their immense power, efficiency, and reliability. These qualities are evident in the Denali HD, which is powered by an advanced Duramax turbo diesel engine. The Duramax consists of a large 6.6-liter eight-cylinder turbo diesel engine, delivering three hundred ninety-seven horsepower and seven hundred sixty-five pounds per foot of torque. The Duramax is paired with an Allison 1000 Series Transmission in order to handle the high amount of torque delivered, as well as improve fuel economy. In the last sixteen years alone, over 1.4 million Duramax and Allison powertrains have been produced. GMC claims that this powertrain offers a maximum highway range of up to six hundred eighty miles on a single tank of gas (GMC.com). The Ford F-250 Lariat also embodies the characteristics normally associated with diesel engines. Powering the F-250 is a massive 6.7-liter Power Stroke eight-cylinder turbo diesel engine. Currently, the Ford F-250 possesses the best-in-class standard power ratings, as well as class-leading fuel economy. The Power Stroke provides the truck with four hundred forty horsepower, along with eight hundred sixty pounds per foot of torque. Linked with the immense diesel engine, Ford equips the F-250 with a standard TorqShift SelectShift six-speed automatic transmission. To maximize fuel economy, the TorqShift torque converter locks up at lower speeds, allowing relief for the engine by requiring less output (Ford.com). To the majority of consumers today, is it crucial that a truck is equipped with luxurious, comfortable, and useful features.
