| There was a new winner for 2008, with the GMC Sierra 3500 taking Vincentric’s Best Value in America™ award with a cost of ownership that was almost 5% lower than expected. The Sierra and the second place Silverado benefited by having the lowest fuel costs and lowest maintenance costs in the segment, allowing the two General Motors vehicles to take the top two spots over the third place Ford F-350. |
