A CAI wont help that. A good tune up, new plugs, new wires, clean air filter, tires up to correct pressure, new O2 sensor if you don't know how old it is. Clean the MAF, clean the throttle body.

If you breathe through a paper towel tube instead of a straw, your body still uses the same amount of oxygen. Same principle here.
If you prefer horsepower to fuel mileage, then I'd recommend intake work as a first step forward; however, if you're trying to save a couple bucks, invest in a full tune-up instead.
And welcome to GM Forum! Stick around; we'll keep that Sierra running long after the dealer says "who are you again?"
