Wilcoxson GMC – Mastering Heavy-Duty Towing with the 2026 GMC Sierra 2500 HD near Canon City, CO
Pulling with precision is about more than torque. It is visibility, control, and confidence at every angle. For drivers who regularly haul equipment, livestock, or recreational trailers near the Royal Gorge and the surrounding canyons, the 2026 GMC Sierra 2500 HD’s available 15-view camera system elevates the towing experience. Thoughtful angles simplify hitching, backing, and tight-spot maneuvers, and the truck’s composed ride and strong braking inspire confidence over rolling grades. Paired with the 10-speed automatic—available with both the gas and Duramax diesel—power arrives smoothly when you need a surge and settles down when you want steady-state cruising.
The camera system’s real-world value shows up on job sites and campground loops. Line up with a clear hitch view, scan obstacles with side and rear angles, and use the available Transparent Trailer view to better understand what is around you as you merge or navigate a crowded lot. When you add the Sierra HD’s in-bed features, tie-down options, and the MultiPro Tailgate’s six-position versatility, the loading-and-launch portion of your day becomes cleaner and quicker. Whether you are shuttling gear east toward the plains or west into higher elevations, the Sierra 2500 HD helps you maintain situational awareness and clarity, even with long trailers in tow.
- Hitch Guidance: A dynamic centerline and zoom make solo hookups faster and more precise.
- Side Perspective: Dual side views help you monitor trailer wheels when cornering in tight spaces.
- Rear Trailer Angles: Tail-mounted views improve backing accuracy and reduce blind spots at low speed.
- Transparent Trailer: When equipped and properly set up, this view can help you see behind the trailer for added confidence on the highway.
- Bed Camera: Keep tabs on cargo and fifth-wheel or gooseneck connections while on the move.
The 2026 model continues to refine cabin tech as well. The available 13.4-inch touchscreen with Google Built-in puts towing checklists, navigation, and compatible trailer profiles at your fingertips. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make it easy to bring your apps and music along, while available driver-assistance tech—such as Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning, and more—supports you on long stretches. For demanding towing, the available Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel pairs deep torque with smooth, predictable shifts, while the gas 6.6L V8 offers stout performance for diverse workloads. Both powertrains keep you composed on grades and provide responsive throttle feel as traffic conditions change.
When your day includes tight turns near trailheads or delivery docks, a wide-angle camera suite and responsive powertrain tuning matter as much as raw rating numbers. The Sierra HD’s blend of hardware and software lets you approach each hitch, climb, and lane change with better information and finer control. It is the difference between getting the job done and finishing the day less stressed and more efficient.
