If adventure calls, the GMC Sierra HD AT4 and AT4X trims deliver factory-built off-road capability.

**AT4 Trim:** Built for those who tackle trail and job site alike, the AT4 features a factory suspension lift, Rancho shocks, all-terrain tires, skid plates, and a robust 4WD system. Inside, durable yet refined materials balance rugged use with all-day comfort. Aggressive styling and proven resilience make it trail-ready.

**AT4X (with optional AEV Edition):** Takes off-road performance to the next level with Multimatic DSSV dampers, locking differentials, and 35-inch terrain tires. The optional AEV Edition adds stamped-steel bumpers, additional skid plates, and off-road-specific enhancements for serious enthusiasts demanding maximum capability.

Both trims pair advanced tech-like the 13.4-inch touchscreen and MultiPro tailgate-with genuine off-road engineering. Ready to explore these adventure-ready rigs? Call Markquart Motors at (715) 833-0444 to schedule a test drive in Chippewa Falls.
