I absolutely love this vehicle, It's so much better than a Suburban - no comparison! Anyone with kids who play sports, or have friends who travel will love this SUV. It gets good gas mileage, especilaly on the road! This is our second XL. The 1st one had 135,000 miles in 4 years - Love it, love it, love it!

I love having this car. My father purchaed the vehicle because he does a lot of traveling and he needs a comfortable car to spend the long 8-9 hour drives in. I take the car when ever I can. I love the room and the space that it provides. The heated seats are a luxury that I wish we had so many years ago when were younger and traveled as a family. I like the idea that I can see out of the back with an unobstructed view. The only down side is that gas right now so high and it tanks on gas but I love it to much to go any other way. Ride on!

My first Yukon

I absolutely love my Yukon XL. I had two Expeditions prior to this, and I love this more. It pulls our 26 ft. travel trailer like nothing! It's very comfortable for long trips. OnStar is definitely a great safety/security feature. It has some extra special features the Expedition doesn't. I love the extra cargo space. It drives beautifully, and engine is so quiet and smooth running. Freeway mileage is great. This is finally the vehicle I can honestly say fits all my needs. This one is a definite keeper. It can haul kids, grandkids, pets, everyone, and comfortably. Seats 8...What more can I say? Check it out. You won't be sorry!

Better mileage than my pickup! Handles great. Out-turns many mid-size cars. Finally - room for the whole family and their stuff!

2005 GMC Yukon XL Denali AWD 4dr SUV (6.0L 8cyl 4A)

This is our second Denali version with the first having been the "shortie". Went with the XL this time for more room while not sacrificing fuel economy. The difference is negligible, but the ride difference is very noticeable. The XL is smoother but a tad less responsive under hard acceleration(ie pulling out into traffic). Could have purchased the Escalade, but drove both back to back and couldnt see $10K more for the Caddy! This thing will pull the house! Very strong motor! Cruises are quiet and very comfortable even for the big guys!
