Choice get a fully loaded AT4 or a basically equipped Denali? The price seems close; when you load out an AT4.

I would order it..anyone have any dealer recommendations in the Pacific Northwest?

thanks

Hard choice, but I will say wait for the 2022's to come out. I say this to everyone now. Having said that, I would go for the Denali. IF, the AT4 ever gets the choice of the Duramax or 6.2L, then I'd go with the AT4.

I love the off road look of the AT4 and really wanted one when I purchased. However, I have 3 young kids and no time to ever take it off-road. The Denali interior is much nicer. The leathers, door trim, dash, etc.

I believe only the Denali has magnetic ride control. For this kind of money I couldn't imagine not getting that.

At4s come standard with magnetic ride control. They are very nicely optioned in base trim.

The AT4 is way less common than the Denali which is kinda fun. (Rare being relative for these mass produced vehicles.) It can be well optioned with the Premium Plus package and a few other boxes checked. The look is unique, outside and inside and the approach angle is way better. That last part may or may not be important to you though. If it is then the AT4 is the way to go.

The Premium Off-road package being optional on the AT4 is weird to me. I know eeeeeverybody wants the red tow hooks but the eLSD and traction modes are the real thing to have on an AT4 or Denali if you plan to leave pavement.

Probably an aspect that most people don't care about but I like, is that I can roll up to a job site on something appointed very closely to a Denali but not have the perception of a $$$ vehicle. I have had clients comment that I must charge too much before when I pulled up in a 2500 Denali and also in a Lexus (that I bought used with 150,000mi on but people are weird). Pull up in a 20k Lexus and catch hell, or roll up in a 85k non-Denali GMC and be normal LOL.

Get the Denali. Reason when you sell it looking at the books on value the AT4willshow up with just basic equipment. Yes it allows options but just a few main ones. The Denali will have them all added in making it worth more
