I may keep it for 10 years and spend no more than 2-4K$ and be very happy at that.
From California to Uruguay, (South America)

As a retired Contractor and "Expat" moving to Uruguay, (2013) I could bring any car or truck I wanted. So, I decided to bring my loyal and strong "GMC SLT 4wd Yukon", to South America. It was meant to be, the last car in y life. Why did I choose this loyal and impressive work horse overseas? Well... I spent many years doing home renovations all over California and all over the USA, carrying tools and workers and even some big tools trailers sometimes. Always counting in this green Truck to go from home to work, to suppliers, back and forth for many years. (including many camping and field trips) After the arrival in South America, I had done a complete refurbish and tuning of the Engine, Brakes, Generator, etc. by the best GMC mechanic in Uruguay and now, with almost 200.000 miles in the odometer, still running and purring like a dream !! Every control, lights and features in this comfortable and spacious space ship, it works just fine; from the compass in the rear view mirror, to the Back door window washer... I did change the driver's seat door handle, by my self and it was easy. Factory paint still on and so are the seat adjustments, dashboard controls and everything else. This is a classic old truck, (26 y/o), that I wouldn't trade for a brand new "Tesla" truck... This trucks were made to last 1,000,000 miles !!! Regards to all from Ciudad de la Costa; Uruguay; South America. [non-permissible content removed]

The GMC was wonderful before it hit 100000 miles. However, once the Yukon reached 100,000 miles the trouble started. I'll probably trade in the coming months.
I love it anyway

Bought my truck new 9 1/2 years ago... now has 148,000 miles on it... Up until this year, had very few repairs, but this year, I have replaced brakes, alternator, battery and the fuel pump twice. Just spent $1300 to get rid of a "Service engine soon" light, and I still have the light... So I get my 2nd fuel pump this week. Other than that, I love my truck, but feel it may not be as reliable as I'd like... May need to buy new. It also eats a ton of gas!
God Bless Them Yukons

I have a 96 Yukon and I just bought it about a week ago, a long time Chevy/GMC fan I just love this truck. It has a 6 inch lift and is chipped and ram aired to get me 350hp on the dyno. Truly not a force to be messed with. Will go through anything anytime anywhere.
