Wilcoxson GMC – Pueblo, CO, Truck Shoppers’ Guide: Super Cruise® and ProGrade® Trailering on the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500
When you’re managing a workweek that stretches from early site check-ins to late-evening supply runs, a truck that trims mental load pays off every mile. Two standout technologies on the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500—Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology and the available ProGrade® Trailering System—are designed to reduce fatigue, simplify setup, and build confidence on roads you drive every day.
Below, we break down how these smart systems work for Pueblo, CO, shoppers who need a capable truck that also makes long days feel lighter. And if you’re cross-shopping trims and packages, Wilcoxson GMC, serving Canon City, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo, can help you pair the right features to your routine.
How Super Cruise® helps on familiar Front Range routes
Super Cruise is available on select trims and can enable hands-free driving on compatible roads, including many divided highways across the region. It uses a network of sensors, a driver attention system, and precision map data to help center the truck in its lane and manage speed and following distance. On multi-lane roads, it can also help perform automatic lane changes when conditions allow—especially helpful when you’re towing and want to plan moves well ahead.
- Hands-free highway travel: Helps reduce fatigue on longer stints by enabling hands-free driving on compatible roads when conditions permit.
- Driver attention system: Monitors driver focus and prompts engagement as needed for added peace of mind.
- Automatic lane change: Assists with lane changes when conditions allow, aiding smoother, more predictable highway flow.
Why ProGrade® Trailering is a difference-maker for busy weeks
The available ProGrade Trailering System integrates trailering tools directly into the truck’s interface. Hitching is easier with camera aids and guidance, while custom trailer profiles help you track connection status and important details from trip to trip. If you rotate between utility trailers, a small equipment hauler, and a weekend camper, saving profiles keeps your prep consistent and streamlined.
- Integrated checklists: Prompts for pre-departure and post-arrival tasks can help prevent missed steps on hectic days.
- Hitch guidance: Camera overlays and guidance aids support faster, more confident hookups.
- Custom profiles: Save data for multiple trailers to maintain consistency across different loads.
Pairing these features with the right power and chassis
Smart tech works best when it’s backed by robust foundations. The 2026 Sierra 1500 offers the TurboMax™ engine with best-in-class standard torque for workday flexibility, plus available V8 and Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel options for added muscle and sustained towing. Stabilitrak® helps keep things settled when skies turn, or surfaces change, while available packages—like the Max Trailering Package or the X31 Off-Road Package—equip the truck to match your routes and loads.
