2008 GMC Sierra AWD Denali, Loaded, 8,350 Miles, 99.9% Showroom Condition Black Ebony Exterior with Matching Black Leather Interior SPECIAL UPDATE: I am re-listing my Denali for a brief and final time. If you've studied & researched both completed eBay Motors listings (you will also find mine, at a higher yet still fair price) and KBB on values along with generally what's selling for what, you will clearly see that my Denali stands-out from any other out there (unless it's new with near zero miles, then it's missing some extremely nice additions), and I am pricing it to sell. If I do not find a serious Buyer by the end of this listing who is both completely serious and willing to overnight their payment (I will overnight a signed title as soon as the bank draft/money order has cleared), I will be placing an order for a bed-cap, and will drive it to my home that's for sale out east. My preference is to not have to ship one vehicle, especially the Denali as I've kept it in pristine condition. I take care of all my vehicles meticulously (to the point where it even causes plenty of 'domestic' problems, but that's my nature when it comes to the care of all my autos). I am not an auto-salesmen nor am I in any kind of business. I'm a retired engineer, and am just carrying too many cars on insurance (3, and in NC I still have my first new truck, an '88 GM that folks can't believe is that old - because of the care it receives), and I need to make some changes. I'd much prefer to drive my immaculate Caddy DTS back east, yet it would make better sense to enjoy driving the Denali along with bringing some things with me. I VERY MUCH ENCOURAGE YOUR LOOKING AT THE 'GALLERY' LINK I'VE INCLUDED BELOW -- THE PHOTOS SPEAK VOLUMES AS TO THE INTEGRITY OF THIS GREAT "TRUCK". I'm very sure this is the most pristine 'used' Denali AWD's out there and it's being priced WELL BELOW KBB (many options/add-ons are not included in the KBB evaluation), and it's got all the best non-OEM options including an extra set of wheels and tires to even further offset your investment should you decide to keep one set and sell the other. Please do NOT bid unless you're serious. I welcome any direct calls at (602) 321-7178 PST. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS VEHICLE, AND YOU WILL FIND I AM AN HONEST & SINCERE PERSON that can hopefully put to rest, any reservations you may have buying online. If you choose to 'Buy it Now' I will contribute $500 to offset your shipping costs ($8-900 is average coast-to-coast, $1050-1150 in covered carrier) or, you can use the $500 to fly out and drive it home, which should cover both flight and gas. There cannot be any delays whatsoever as I am departing in 10 days. Thanks, and best of luck in your searching endeavors... HERE ARE THE AUCTION DETAILS: Over $55,000 invested in this great truck, in the “right” way in my opinion. Read on. You’ll also find a link (below) to an online gallery of many more detailed photos of the Denali. This is also a 'born & raised' Arizona vehicle, we never have to worry about rust & oxidation in the Phoenix Valley, just dust. This truck is absolutely loaded with the best equipment that money can buy while maintaining a complete ‘clean’ appearance. Of the $55,000 invested the only modifications or enhancements that have been have been done to improve vehicle handling, appearance and safety. As a long-time car enthusiast I not only take meticulous care of all my vehicles, yet as I've gotten older I have learned over the years that the only engineering-type changes that are of significant benefit are handling and safety changes; namely wheels & tires, GPS outputs/backup cameras and that’s it. When you opt for an All Wheel Drive Sierra Denali along with all the offered OEM add-ons, you’ve got one of the absolute best, most powerful performance pick-up truck out there. The Denali feels like a truck body mounted on a Corvette platform. With 403-HP, AWD and 6-speed transmission (only available in the Denali package) you can't get much better than that. IF you can call any truck more of a luxury & performance truck it’d be the Cadillac equivalent of the Chevy Avalanche. I just never liked that ‘un-truck-like’ style. So this is as good as it gets in a performance/luxury truck, hands down. (of course I'm pretty biased) It took a lot of both time and looking to finally find a Black-on-Black Denali with All-Wheel-Drive and all the OEM options, and in purchasing this Denali I’ve never been happier with any other vehicle I’ve owned. As mentioned I’ve got well over $55k into this vehicle—You will be just as happy with this Denali as if you were driving it off a dealership showroom floor, only the options I've added to it would have to be procured, and at a significant cost—see for yourself, the pictures speak for themselves. (http://gallery.me.com/coolbeanes/100116) This is also a non-smoker vehicle. I only bought this truck to use while here in Phoenix—I still have a home in NC, and this was purchased in lieu of renting cars while flying back and forth. This vehicle comes with a running account of gas, mileage—every gallon of gas and everything serviced is on file. Although the Denali is designed to run on 87-octane I buy 91-octane every third tankfull. It’s always been hand washed, and has been hand-waxed three times in the 8k miles I’ve had it. Nearly all 8,000 miles have come from varied highway road trips around AZ and NM. I now must go back to NC to 'baby sit' my house for sale. My preferred plan is to drive my DTS back and shipping the Denali. Having 3 vehicles insured is too much to handle under my current circumstances. If a fair price cannot be gotten for this vehicle I will either drive it back east or ship my DTS. I would prefer putting the miles on the DTS yet everything hinges on what's left. This truck has never hauled nor towed anything. I’ve met other Sierra Denali owners; one said “She tows a large 4-person, 4-wheel trailer home" and added, "you almost feel like you’re not pulling anything”. The Denali is the only combination of luxury and performance you can get in a pickup-style vehicle; it’s a total waste to not opt for the AWD System, that’s what the 6.2-liter/403HP, 6-speed automatic transmission and it’s handling package was intended for.This Denali is very competitively priced. Few have low mileage but not even close to mine. Yes, some Sellers are offering lesser prices but look very closely as to what options aren't included, including non-OEM options. Then look carefully at the overall condition. Even my Denali fender-wells are clean as new. It has never been off-road, or even driven on gravel. Price-wise I doubt if you'll find a better deal. Here are some key information any Buyer needs to know:Always covered & car ported, never driven in the rain (with the exception of being caught in only one quick downpour)—I never take my 'special' vehicles out in anything but sunny days I have a clean title with no liens attached therefore the moment the lucky new owner brings a bank check—it’s their vehicle at that exact moment, no waiting for banks to release their lien on this vehicle. If you reside in Arizona, all taxes have been paid (which makes a difference to Arizonan's)Full GM Bumper-to-Bumper Factory Warranty.95% of the small amount of mileage has been on AZ road trips.I keep meticulous records and receipts of any & all work performed (including ongoing fuel records). I do not subscribe to the new GM Oil Change ‘rule’ of the efficiency of the oil filtration system where oil changes can be at 6,000 mile intervals – I change oil every 2-3,000 miles, period.You also have a very significant option of selling the four brand-new GM OEM wheels & tires—they’re worth a fair amount. Or you can use the GMC Denali standard one’s, and pick up a tidy sum on the 24” wheel & tire combos. That in itself is a huge option to have in adjusting your bottom-line price overall. Every single GMC OEM option is included in this Denali (except sliding rear window - yet you cannot get the rear-window defogger/heater if you go with a slider), and the engine-block heating element is the only other option missing. Options are as follows yet I'm sure anyone familiar with the Denali line already knows the general Denali option list: Full-time All Wheel Drive 403/hp, 6.2L V8 engine with 6-speed trans (this is the largest non-diesel engine and transmission package that's only available in the Denali package) Navigation/Bose Stereo & Speaker System Rear 9” Fold-down DVD Player; the DVD system has never been used—until I loaded a DVD, and took pictures for this ad (I even had to pull off the plastic factory screen protector for testing)—the Bose audio, mixed with the ‘opera’ tinted windows in the rear make for one unbelievable video/audio experience! Included is the Bose remote control (also never used) along with the pair of Bose Wireless headphone sets, also never used. Towing Package Power Sun/moon roof OnStar System Rear heated window & exterior mirrors Full 6-way power heated seats (for both driver & passenger) Dual zone climate control His-Hers seat, Bose system settings, mirror settings and HVAC comfort presets Adjustable pedals Remote Start; auto seat heaters during cold temp’s Power-retractable exterior mirrors All mirrors night/auto-dim XM/Cirrus satellite radio (fully paid-up through December 2010) Rear window heater/defrost Window cleaning fluid heater GMC ‘Easy Lift’ Tailgate Loads of DC-voltage connectors for extra devices Extra bay in engine compartment for extra battery Both remote-control key fobs are included (with alarm & remote start) Full GMC Bumper-to-Bumper transferrable warranty Owner Added GMC OEM items: Full width removable rear carpet pad (factory only provides two small square-type mats, which are also included) Removable under seat (rear) storage compartment with a custom quick-release removal system. GM heavy duty 100% rubber non-skid bed liner mat (much thicker & far superior to aftermarket equivalents) Additional custom options (non-OEM) added by owner (note: all items have either lifetime or remaining transferable warranties): AMP automatic/electric step bumper system, which is usable from all four doors; this is an incredible system; they open/close in an instant, are rock-solid, and there's no getting around the aesthetics of them--when retracted the Denali looks as though it has no step bumper system at all. They're expensive but worth every penny in my opinion. AMP retractable rear step bumper; also expensive (over $250 for such a small item) but you won't believe how sturdy and useful it is until you try it for yourself. Both the AMP StepSide's & BedStep systems are so incredibly sturdy, if you move up and down while standing on 'em, the entire truck moves with you. They're the best, cleanest looking step systems available. You'd never know you have 'em unless they're activated. SunTek Carbon Series window tint; all legal tinting—minimal in front windows, ‘opera’ tint in rear passenger and rear windshield. Panasonic Hi-Resolution wide angle, low-lux color backup camera system--unreal night time capability! Inyati spray-in bed liner including optional UV protectent, also had rear wheel-wells coated CoverCraft custom made (Sierra specific) truck cover including carrying bag CoverCraft windshield SunScreen (silver) custom made specifically for the Sierra series GMC trucks (this is not the flimsy, cheap type—it folds up accordion style (approx 8 folds to take up only about 2 feet by 8 inches) Skyjacker custom 1.5” front leveling system (plus precision alignment afterwards). This was a dealer install and does not effect anything warranty-wise. All pickups are canted towards the front—this allows for a more balanced stance plus provides necessary clearance wider tires, no matter what size rims are used. Garmin GPS System (optional); 7” widescreen, dash-mount with concealed power feed and backup camera video wiring already custom installed (Garmin GPS is negotiable—it was chosen instead of much higher-cost PAC unit which feeds backup camera directly into OEM Navigation, and gives the driver a easier to view GPS as well as automatic switching to backup camera; choosing the Garmin was better and far less expensive than a PAC unit (yet new owner has the option to switch to a PAC unit, which costs $340 + $200 installation, and the outcome is having just a rear view camera for more money) 3M clear door edge ‘invisible’ protectors (all four doors) Note: in some of the pictures you may notice 2 or 3 little ‘dings’ where they aren’t actual door dings—they are marks in the 3M protectors, which is what they’re there for. 3M clear door handle protectors; I never realized the need for these things until I saw how finger rings scratch up the handle areas until I looked at my girlfriend’s car. Just like the 3M door edge protectors, they do their job. Exhaust: probably the only thing I felt was a letdown from Denali design was that GM finished-off the exhaust with a ho-hum, run of the mill single-wall, aluminized exhaust tip--if you could even call it that. I went to a professional exhaust company and had them weld a chrome double-wall 'rolled' exhaust tip onto it. They said the great thing about the Denali is that the entire exhaust system is all oversized-diameter tubing--I had to find a specialty place because most exhaust outfits aren't equipped for the diameter used (I believe it's either 4, or 3.5-inch diameter). One thing for sure, is that the absolute last thing the Denali needs is dual exhaust... this is by far the best sounding single exhaust anyone could want. It's plenty loud and 'throaty' sounding as-is, I've been into performance cars all my life and never have heard any exhaust sound as good as the Denali's without it being a dual-exhaust system. Belkin input cabling for Mp3/iPod/iPhone usage included. Wheels & Tires (OEM’s and Upgrades): Four F4-brand, 24” by 10” Chrome Wheels Kumho 305/35/VR24 Ultra High Performance tires Nitrogen filled (reduces inner dry-rot of the tires, and the N2 molecules being much larger translates to nearly no discernible decrease in pressure; they're supposed to increase overall 'roll' and provide better gas mileage although I have doubts about that 'pitch' but I've yet to have to ever adjust tire pressure which is a biggie to me along with dry-rot issues). 8 Sets total of electronic Air pressure sensors, all are GM OEM; same as what's in the 4 Denali extra wheels/tires (linked to GM DIC System) Full set of the best wheel locks—with a specially ordered extra ‘keyed’ removal socket included; one for the glove box, the other for safe keeping at home. Included are all four Original GMC wheels & Bridgestone tires (including original OEM air pressure sensors) NEW & NEVER USED; they have exactly 16 miles on them, the distance from the dealership to the shop, where the new custom wheels and tires were already purchased and ready—the tires still have the ‘injection mold teats’ as they’re brand new, as are the Denali wheels. Notes and links to relevant sites: - Kelly Blue Book values this Denali at approximately $40,205 (note: they do not allow a means of including all the options other than GM-specific OEM Factory add-ons); all told, as mentioned there is approximately $15,000 beyond the KBB estimate. - CarFax Note: there may be the possibility of a CarFax report on the Denali, but not for anything serious like collision repair; I didn’t have it three weeks and some kind soul broke-out the passenger window in order to steal my iPod. I made the insurance company replace anything that had so much as a scratch, in addition I made the glass repair company livid when I demanded original GM OEM glass for its replacement (the glass replacement outfits make their big profits with aftermarket “almost as good as” windows). Nonetheless you need to know these details, whether they're on record or not; I would expect there would be a record seeing I used my insurer to cover even the slightest mark (I even have a spare burl-wood center console portion that I made them replace as well, yet you'd think the 'old' spare looks new as well). - Amp Electric Retractable Step Bumpers: see link below for a short video of their capabilities, in case you don’t know about them—they’re the absolute best and most discrete step bumpers available, and they’re super-fast operating. VERY pricey but well worth the extra money invested -- they're just near invisible when retracted! Here’s the AMP Mfr.

I have recently added some close-up photos of the only minor blemishes on the entire vehicle (a total number of three - most of which are so small a person would need to have their eyes 12" from the 'blem' in order to see it. Pictures are untouched other than one's like the fender-wells where I had to 'overexpose' in order to clearly show their condition: I very much encourage all interested parties to go to this link, hit the lower-left 'mosaic' key, make your browser page as large as possible and enjoy the 'show'. All photo's can be 'clicked on' to gain incredibly large views.
