Now, Tuesday this week, November 29, 2001 at 160k, vehicle won't move. Was working just fine, parked, went to leave, no reverse, no forward gear, nothing. ... Read More

    If you are looking to purchase new, be sure to stop by your local GMC dealer and pick up a free brochure on the Yukon/Yukon XL/Denali. It is a very complete "book" on the two cars so you can see what the differences are. One expectation I had from reading the forums was the availability of four-wheel-steering on the 2003 Denali XL. Bad news there: It is not and WILL not ... Read More

    I have been trying to decide whether to buy a Yukon XL or a Denali XL. The Denali XL interested me due to more horsepower mostly. However, my father in law, who is a mechanical engineer, told me that the AWD system requires fluid transfers which bleed a lot of power and he thought that the Denali with the 6.0 would be more sluggish than the Yukon XL with the 5.3. ...

    I own a 2000 Yukon XL 1500 with the ISD SLT package. This includes the ZW7 Premium Smooth Ride Suspension. Does anyone find this suspension harsh? GMC website describes the suspension as touring and firm. I find it harsh over highway expansion joints and small bumps as though the shock damping is too firm. Any comments would be appreciated.
