packages can be delivered to a vehicle when it’s parked in a publicly accessible area, such as on the street in front of an apartment building, at a workplace surface parking lot or in a home driveway. “At Amazon, we are always working
to make our customers’ lives easier and starting today, we’re excited to bring in-car delivery to Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac owners,” said Peter Larsen, vice president of delivery technology, Amazon. “Prime members now have another way to
ensure their packages are safe and secure—all for no additional cost.” Setting up Amazon Key In-Car Delivery is easy.

Additional eligible delivery addresses can be added to the Amazon address book at any time. Customers receive a notification via the Amazon Key App when the delivery is on its way and after the delivery is completed and the vehicle is relocked. Deliveries are made to a stationary car parked in a publicly accessible area. Amazon Key In-Car Delivery requires a 2015 model year or newer Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicle.

Denali: Professional-Grade Luxury BY CHRISTY HINKO
cHinKo@antonmediagroup.com
Since the late 1990s, the GMC Denali line of trucks has reigned supreme in the car world, first appearing in a version of the GMC Yukon. Car buyers have consistently ensured that the Denali has retained its spot at the top. “Denali has maintained its popularity since 1999,” said GMC Showroom Manager, Rocky Dentici of King O’Rourke in Smithtown. “When people think of the Denali line, they think: precision, power, durability, professional-grade.” Dentici said the quality and engineering make Denali trucks appealing. “Its style and the ride doesn’t even compare to other brands’ models,” he added. His favorite GMC Denali is a current model pickup truck, the 2018 Sierra Denali Ultimate. “It’s got a bigger engine, 22-inch wheels, power side steps.” While not a Denali, Dentici shared his first memory of driving a GMC truck, “When I was 18 years old, I remember driving my grandfather’s 1960 GMC C-10
(Chevrolet); it was blue.” He recalled that was also the oldest GMC he had ever driven. When we think of who drives a big, rugged Americanmade truck, we are quick to
think tradesman, farmers, the blue-collar guy, but not so said Dentici. So who drives that Denali truck, named after the nation’s tallest mountain (also known as Mt. McKinley in Alaska)? “Denali is a popular truck on Long Island; people really love the Denali,” he said. “There is such a bigger variety of Denali owners, more and more each year.” King O’Rourke, one of the leading Buick dealership on Long Island, is located at 756 Smithtown Bypass in Smithtown.

SIERRA from page 21A “GMC ignited the premium truck segment 17 years ago with the original launch of the Sierra Denali,” said Duncan Aldred, vice president of Global GMC. “The next generation 2019 Sierra Denali establishes a new benchmark in capability and refinement. It exemplifies precision in every detail.” Powerful proportions and distinctive Denali design help define the Sierra’s unmistakable exterior, while the driver-focused cabin strengthens the brand’s reputation for refinement with premium materials, improved interior space and innovative storage solutions. “The heritage of the GMC brand is rooted in full-size trucks, of which the Sierra is our cornerstone, with our SLT and Denali models contributing 87 percent of our total crew cab sales,” Aldred said. “The next generation Sierra caters to these unique customers who demand a premium, innovative truck that supports their professional and personal passions.” The 2019 GMC Sierra Denali and SLT go on sale this fall.
