Uses 3 x the gas when touring my 3500# camper. Lags when towing up Hills. Rated for 5200# towing capacity. Runs great when not towing.

2008 GMC Envoy Denali 4dr SUV 4WD (5.3L 8cyl 4A)

I love the power that the V8 offers in this size of an SUV. I would agree with some that turning is very soft with this vehicle, but some like the smoothness that it gives you. I have yet to tow something with it, but can't wait. Bose stereo is great, and OnStar turn by turn is also great. With the pricing that they have for these vehicles right now, there isn't a better deal.

An excellent truck for the price. The Denali trim level looks great, we get compliments all the time. Great looking interior, we have the black leather with wood grain.

If all the reviewer can complain about is sloppy cornering and a plastic feel interior then don't worry. My 2008 envoy is awesome, sure it's heavier on fuel but if you can't afford it buy something else. I stiffened my ride with some heavy duty shocks, a rough country leveling kit, some wheel spacers, bigger tires, ditched the running boards and now it rides amazing and yes it's a real truck! 4x4 up the dirt hills and over the rocks then back home. The leather cleans easily and the dashboard too when you spill your coffee at the gravel pit. I like the classic woody look on the dash especially since it has all the bells and whistles. If you want a real 4x4 SUV TRUCK then this is it.
