Overpriced POS

Have had an 04, 09, and 2015 Yukon (my wife insists on buying these junkers). The 2015 is too new to tell the problems. The 04 and 09 both had oil pump die just past 110K miles, resulting in crushing of the cam shaft and requiring a rebuilt/new engine. Constantly having other problems with hoses, suspension, etc. All these generations of Yukons cost as much as a nice Mercedes, but is nothing more than a glorified S10 Pickup. I have had other GM vehicles from Cadi's to Chevy's. ALL have an expiration date before 150K miles.

Lots of space for the kids and cargo

This SUV just has all what a big family can wish for. There are plenty of cargo space even with 3 row seat in use. It handles very safely, but it takes a little getting use to parking due to the size of this SUV. Gas milage could be better but what can one expect of a SUV this size with a 6L V8. It's very quite even at high speed.

I've never owned a GMC product until this truck. Very impressed with the build quality, performance and reliability. I average 16mpg around town and 19mpg on highway at 75mph! Towing my 4200 pound sailboat across country and back gave me a 14.2 mpg average! I've had one small re-occuring problem concerning the rear heat on my SLT truck having a valve stick. We don't use the heat very often in Phoenix, so no doubt that has a lot to do with it. The rear air works very well! I have all the options but the DVD system and sunroof. As I said before, I'm impressed, GM. Good job with my truck.
