Not Bad for 125,000 miles

2002 GMC Yukon Denali AWD 4dr SUV (6.0L 8cyl 4A)

Call me crazy but I bought a 2002 Denali with 120,000 miles on it. I have had it for two months (5000 miles) and am very pleased. I would have never thought to buy a vehicle with that many miles but the previous owner took exceptional care of this car. The ride is very nice although if the road is bumpy so is the ride. The performance is outstanding. It flat out moves when you give it the gas. My biggest complaint is that the front seat doesn't quite go back far enough. The mileage is at 16 mpg with about 50/50 driving. The car's transmission was rebuilt at 110,000 miles. My mechanic said it was one of the nicest cars he has seen with that high of mileage. Inside and out.

I bought mine new in 02. I traded in a 97 GMC Yukon that had many problems. My 97 was basically a dog after the first 25K miles. The 2002 Yukon is head and shoulders above the earlier body style. So far, 127k miles on the 2002 model and nothing but routine maintenance tires and oil. I have been rough on this vehicle but do maintain it. In the current economy fewer people will be able to own and operate a vehicle like this. If you are one of them, this is an excellent SUV to own. The 02 Yukon has exceeded my dependability expectations. Grade it a A+

I am very happy with my new Yukon. The ride is great. I can't believe how quiet the drive train and tires are. Speaking of tires - what is up with putting Firestone tires on? This is an extremely comfortable highway cruiser. The power is there if you need a quick jump from 65-80 to pass someone. Visibility is good. I would recommend to anyone who wants a full size SUV. This is a very nice, competent package

I have a white 2002 Yukon SLT 4WD. I use it to pull my 4 horse trailer. It does great up hills, around curves and has a great towing capacity. I love it for family outtings since I have 2 kids and 3 dogs, and my husband likes it for the handling and drives it to work everyday without a problem. I feel very safe in it. Highly recommend this SUV, I wont ever depend on a Ford after driving my Yukon for so long!

Suburban replacement

I replaced my ten year old suburban with this vehicle. I use it for work and family use. My first trip was an 800 mile round trip to visit my daughter.It was a joy to drive on the interstates and in the city. Very comfortable and almost nimble in heavy traffic. Great lines of vision. Very low wind noise at highway speed. A very comfortable ride quality. Go get yourself one!
