3/4 Ton Yukon XL - Rock Solid vehicle

I've owned this vehicle for about 5 yrs, putting all 96000 miles on it. Only repair items have been to reprogram the transmission (in warranty) and to replace a burned out seat motor. I tow a 7000 lb trailer with it about 10 times a year. When Katrina hit, my wife and I evacuated in only this vehicle with two grown boys, 3 cats, a dog, cat litter boxes, dog pillow, suitcases, computers, game boxes - everything they held dear and drove for 8 hrs on a single tank of gas. Yes, it gets 13mpg, but if you are shopping for a reliable SUV - you won't find any better. I haven't even had to change the brakes!

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!

I purchased this vehicle because I needed enough space for my three boys, and because I needed a competent tow vehicle with 4 wheel drive. This vehicle has exceeded my expectation! It's easy and enjoyable to drive, it has plently of power, and the mileage is fair. (If you can call 14 MPG fair.) Surprisingly, the vehicle is also easy to park and has a tighter turning radius then my much smaller and more sporty 4-door sedan. If you need a big vehicle, and I do mean BIG, and you can live with the "Wow! That's a BIG car!" jokes and the poor mileage this vehicle is for you. If I could relive this vehicle's purchase, I would still buy the vehicle again. Overall, it's a great vehicle with bad MPG.

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!
This is one Gas-Burning Dinasour!

We've owned 2 in a row. I thought the 1st one was a lemon.This truck is the reason for GM troubles! If you plan on towing a heavy trailer 100% of the time, this is one solid vehicle. The other 99.9% of the consumers, stay away from it! If you transport 7 passengers, go buy a minivan. This truck will far exceed your monthly payment in gas consumption and will make you poor. It's hard to park, and believe me, you're not bragging to anyone by driving one. People feel sorry for you at the pump! Basically, a very expensive, low quality, gas-hogging beast all around. Buttons peel off, leather seats wear out in 12k miles. This car is 100% what a European or Asian car is not. It's a $45k shame!
