Can I Plow with a GMC Sierra?
Are you wondering if it's possible to mount a plow to the front of a GMC Sierra pickup? The short answer is "Yes!" GMC Sierras are well-suited for carrying a plow and doing the hard work of removing large amounts of snow from driveways, roads, and parking lots. Here are a few frequently asked questions regarding the GMC Sierra and plowing:
- Q: What size of plow should I be looking for?
- A: The only real hard and fast rule is that you need your plow to be wider than your vehicle’s track width. For a GMC Sierra that would be 68.7-68.9", so about 70” or greater would preferred. And remember, all of the plows on our site are at least 80" wide, so don't sweat it.
- Q: How exactly will this plow mount onto my Sierra?
- A: You’ve got two choices depending on which plow you go with. Some will include custom brackets that mount directly to the factory installed holes in your frame. While others include a front mounting hitch – this way you can get the plow off and back on easily.
- Q: How do Sierras handle with a snow plow attached?
- A: Like a champ. With 305 ft-lbs. of torque and a 285 horsepower engine, this is truly a truck that’s up to the task. Rear-wheel drive pushes you and your plow through the toughest of snow banks. The Sierra is best suited for personal plowing use, generally for commercial applications a 1-ton truck would be recommended.
