You didn't care for the AT4X AEV? I had the Duramax in my 2023 AT4 and too many DEF and Regen issues. The deals on 2025 AT4X had me reconsidering though. I got rid of my 2023 Raptor because of so many small sensor issues that couldn't be resolved. I've had my eye on a 2025 802A...but it's a tough call.
I traded a ‘22 AT4x with the 6.2 V8 for my Raptor. I had no real issues with the truck in 40k miles. The on-road ride was good, and the interior is nice with higher quality leather than the Ford. Also, the cameras had better resolution than my Raptor. Finally, I prefer the brake and steering feel of the GMC.

Since my truck was a ‘22, it didn’t have sport mode. In normal mode it didn’t feel particularly quick unless you got the revs up. It wasn’t slow, but the Raptor feels quicker from a dig.

There are other things I didn’t love about the GMC. I don’t like piano black plastic, and the GMC had a fair amount inside. Also, you can’t get full screen CarPlay on the infotainment center on the AT4x. The 24 gallon gas tank is way too small for a 15.5 mpg truck. There is also no button in the bed to turn on bed lighting. The radar cruise makes you push the gas pedal if the truck comes to a complete stop for just a few seconds. Finally, there is no ambient lighting or walk up exterior lighting. At least on my ‘22.

I liked my GMC just fine. However, I like the Raptor better. I just hope it holds up as well. My AT4x was rattle free and still looked basically new inside after almost 3 years and 40k miles.

I will not get another GM or duramax for the rest of my life lol.

Fit and finish on GMC is amazing. But the interior is smaller than ford. Feels more like a Cadillac in the at4x aev, which some don’t like— including me. What really only sucks is the constant regens in the 3.0 and the def usage. I was filling an entire def tank every 1500 miles.

I think it had something to do with living in the mountains and the frequent incline full pedal driving. 3.0 is fuel efficient but slow as hell.

Love this thing, and don’t think I can ever go back to anything but a raptor.
