After the Hybrid stickers were removed, my family and I stand back and admire the beauty of this automobile. We had been persuaded away from American-made cars several years ago and went the way of the foreign minivan. We were leery of Government Motors, but are extremely happy with the quality of this vehicle. The ride is smooth, the gas mileage is really 20 mpg, and the cargo room is expansive with the last row of seats out. All our stuff can fit and when the grandparents come to town, everyone has ample room. GM did a great job without sacrificing anything. It's solid and the quality is on par with any Toyota/Honda/Nissan minivan out there!

I've only been driving the Yukon Hybrid for about two weeks now, and I must say bravo for GM. It's so quiet, you barely hear it coming. The hybrid drive shift's so smooth you cant feel it shift.

thought it was the best thing next to sliced bread, but what a headache this suv has been! burns oil due to bad engineering of the AFM system, dealer just gives run around, when you force them to repair it will cost you big! maybe even a new engine, read post about this vehicle before you think of buying, mine took a crap at around 110k miles so i was out of luck with warranty...also mpg is really round 16mpg avg. so not worth the extra thousands of dollars diff. from a regular yukon! thats why GM stop making them. got an F150 now, loved my Jimmy but they made me hate it! due to design flaw and lack of support bye GMC!

I have maintained my Yukon since purchasing it in 2008. I now have a little over 200,000 miles on it. The battery pack was replaced about 125,000 miles. The transmission has been outstanding. The key is not to fool around with puting additives in the transission. It should be sealed. The engine has been soild. I use Mobil 1 long distance motor oil and still change it when i hit 20% oil usage left. Fuel mileage has ranged from 20 mpg to 28 mpg on the open road. I ran an experiment between Albuquerque to Santa Fe and back. At 80mpg i got 20.8 mpg. I ran the course again holding my mph to 65. I got 24.5. To San Antonio round trip i will average around 23.5 mpg. It varies based on driving conditions, habit and how much ups and down hills. I plan on hanging on to my Yukon. It has been so goid to me may family and dogs. Lol. Great vehicle.
