This truck offers everything you could ask for in terms of entertainment, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for pairing your smartphone to the truck and making hands-free phone calls or accessing certain apps. You’ll also get access to SiriusXM radio, which offers endless music stations, radio talk shows, news coverage, and sporting events.

Safety

The Sierra 2500 HS has built-in Sierra HD Pro Safety, a complete safety package that uses assistive driving to reduce the risk of accidents. This system surveils the area surrounding your truck and alerts you to vehicles, pedestrians, or obstacles in your path. Sierra HD Pro Safety includes:

Other safety features in the Sierra 2500 include Teen Driver and Rear Seat Reminder.
