To the moon & 1/2 way back @ 342k miles

This vehicle has been phenomenal!! I purchased new in 1996 and have essentially only needed gas, oil, tires, batteries & brakes for the majority of the time it has been in service. At about 325k, had to rebuild the tranny after nearly 20 years of pulling a boat, snowmobiles and a heavy trailer hauling cords of wood. A couple of issues that did need attention: rear axel seals, CD player, fuel pump, heater control and blower fan; all nickel/dime repairs. The only draw back is the fuel economy @ 22 MPH highway and 16 city. Otherwise I would drive this vehicle to 1M miles or more.

This is the second one I have owned. Very comfortable, good tow vehichle, fairly decent fuel mileage for the size. Gas mileage as good or better than much smaller SUV's but with much more room and comfort. Tailgate model much more versitile for hauling than barn door models. Nice highway ride, and excellent turning ablilities in parking lot situations.

THE GMC YUKON OF 98 IS WITHOUT A DOUBT PROFESSIONAL GRADE! THE MOST WONDERFUL AUTOMOBILE I'VE EVER OWNED. IF EVERYBODY COULD AFFORD ONE OF THESE THECAR DEALERS WOULD NEVER SALE A BLAZER OR EXPLORER. IM JUST TICKLED TO DEATH WITH THIS THING.

I have the Yukon Sport Gt I have nothing but good things to say about it, Comfortible to drive, plenty of room to carry people and cargo..and a very POWERFUL motor. (we like that!) Sexy stylings ..very lean and mean look to it. I have installed a lift kit and larger off road tires. This truck is a keeper.
