Just loved all the space. One of only a few vehicles in which you can haul 4 X 8 sheets of drywall laying flat in the rear. Going on a vacation? Take along anything you might wear.

Initial Report on SLT 1500 4WD

Dealer searched this one out for me to get the desired features as I moved from a 1995 K2500 6.5 turbodiesel. Excellent, smooth and comfortble ride, with Autoride & Stabilitrak playing a big role in smoothness & stability. The seats (SD option highly recommended) are fabulous, especially for those with bad backs, providing excellent support. Excellent build quality, everything fits, no rattles, and minimal wind noise. The 3.42 gear ratio provides about 18.7 mpg at 65 - 70 mph, over 21 mpg at 55 mph--all on regular gas. I did replace the 17" B- stone Dueler HT 684 with Cooper Discoverer ATR, a move I am very glad I made. All in all, an excellent vehicle, providing comfort, room, and safety

As a former Ford only vehicle person, I didnt think I would like a GMC, but I do. this truck has a smooth ride, plenty of room, and pretty ok fuel use. But hey when you buy an SUV you know what you are in for, its not a compact car after all, and your going to pay for gas. I had a Ford Excursion, that was a rough ride, HORRIBLE fuel use, and just plain old big. If you have the need for room and SUV use, I would tell anyone to buy this GMC Yukon XL.

This has been the most comfortable, smooth riding, trouble-free vehicle I have ever owned. On the highway at speeds of 65-70, I get 19- 19.4 mpg without air and 18.5 with air.Of course when you drive faster than that, mpg drops like a lead rock. Can't complain for a vehicle this size.

My last three vehicle have been GMC Yukon's. They are an all purpose vehicle that is also very driver friendly. With a whole family loaded in the vehicle I feel very safe as well. It handles better than any SUV I have driven in the past. It's easy to park, it rides very smooth, and has all the extras for the whole family. I would never consider buying any other vehicle in this class. As a matter of fact, I will probably never buy a car again.
