Performance
We'll start with the 2025 GMC Sierra base model to revel in the best-in-class standard torque of 430 lb-ft. It only gets better from here, with the highest output residing in the available Duramax diesel engine capable of 495 lb-ft of torque. What are you going to do with it all? Tow up to 13,200 pounds, that's what. Here to make every job easier are available towing and other driving features that you can find in the latest GMC Sierra in Mount Vernon:
- ProGrade Trailering System
- Two-speed Autotrac transfer case
- Underbody skid plates
- 2-inch factory lift
- Off-road suspension
- ancho monotube shocks
- Multimatic DSSV dampers
- Front and rear electronic locking differentials
Best-in-class horsepower comes available in the Ram 1500, not standard. That would be 540 HP in the 3.0L HO engine, but even with 521 lb-ft of torque, this rig can only tow up to 9,920 pounds. Even with two other powertrains to choose from, the Ram 1500 caps out at an 11,550-pound towing capacity with less torque than the Sierra's Duramax diesel engine. While the Ram 1500 doesn't carry nearly as many upgrades as the Sierra, you can choose from options like Selec-Speed Control and an air suspension system. Although GMC's offerings may prove more useful in the thick of it.
Safety Features
When you use your truck for work around Columbus, you find yourself in all kinds of situations and environments that are difficult to navigate. Instead of hopping out of the truck ten times, making sure you get out unscathed, the new GMC Sierra supports up to 14 camera angles so you can check every inch without getting out of your seat. Cameras aside, the 2025 Sierra keeps you protected with other available safety and driver-assist features, including front and rear parking assist, a steel bumper and skid plate, and the new Super Cruise hands-free driving system.

Meanwhile, the new Ram 1500 comes with much of what you would find in today's truck, like collision prevention, evasive steering, parking assist, and everything else of the sort. The Ram 1500 even has a steel frame for added protection. However, much of what we just mentioned is also available in the Sierra. Why not go with the truck that's decked out in more camera views than you can count on your hands?
Interior
The new 2025 GMC Sierra boasts best-in-class crew cab front head and leg room, meaning that you can have a fully-equipped utility truck and enjoy the luxury of a spacious cabin. If we're talking luxury, the latest Sierra also offers additional amenities like 16-way power adjustments for your heated and ventilated chair, a power sunroof, and over 40 inches of total screen between the infotainment, driver gauge, and HUD. And because we're talking GM, you can get the 2025 Sierra in iconic Denali style.
You might get up to 24-way power seating adjustments in the front of the new Ram 1500, but if you ask us, that's a bit overkill. Especially in exchange for the style and utility of the GMC brand, we're willing to give up a couple of extra chair angles if it means having a better pickup truck experience in Mount Vernon.
Bottom Line
Make sure you're getting the truck that does the most. The 2025 GMC Sierra can pull its own weight and then some with best-in-class standard torque and high-tech features for a modern truck experience. The Ram 1500 might be a top choice for hardcore fans, but they don't know what they're missing.
