The GMC Denali XL is great for room and yes comfor,technology is excellent ,and for a large suv,the mirage is what to be expected. The Bose system is great,and Bluetooth works all the time. Sometimes the GPS is not that accurate,however the traffic part of it is right on.overall this is my third one and by far the best of the three.if you need a lot of cubic space and want luxury to go with it,this is the right choice.

Looks great. Drives well but poor reliability. Parking and blind assist sensors went out within the first 3 months of purchase. Air conditioning broken after two years. Apple car play annoying. Definitely skip this one and consider the Expedition. Only reason we didn’t buy the Expedition is the new safety tech wasn’t available but with new model it has all the tech.

I am so disappointed with my purchase of the 2016 Yukon XL Denali. The issues with this vehicle in just 1 month are endless. The main one being the brakes are sooo bad. I got in an accident after 1 week, because the brakes on the car just dont work. The quality of the seats are so poor, you can feel the springs in the seats. The transmission keeps slipping. I hate this vehicle. DO NOT BUY.

the Denali with the 6.2 is a great family cruiser/ trip maker with the occasional 22' center console boat behind it. The magnaride is still up in the air if i like it or not. Don't ever let a second rate shop (yes we can fix this, no problem) work on this suspension (or anything else for that matter). That's likely why mine has perceived issues. It won't stay aired up with the boat on it and has front sag due to leaking struts. The Denali needs a reputable shop, make no mistake. It is not a normal Yukon.

This is a great car with a few bugs. transmission was replaced at 22000 but all is good now. The Crystal Red is the best red GMC has had to date. The new 2018 Crimson red is not as sharp. Seats could be much better for long drives. After all this car is made to drive.
