2006 Yukon Denali

A wonderful driving experience. Smooth ride, excellent handling, extremely comfortable. Nicest SUV I've owned so far (#5). Has all the horns and bells and whistles, and they all work.

What a Ride!

This SUV is great, a little on the pricey side but worth it. We own a 2002 Yukon XL. This new Yukon is loaded with all kinds of new things (like a button that brings the gas pedal closer). It drives solid and smooth. The kids love the DVD package. I love the XM radio. If you haven't driven one- you should. I am glad that we bought another Yukon.

Good in the Beginning

I purchased my vehicle thinking total quality. Wrong. The front interior around the steering wheel, navigation screen and CD player keep peeling and chipping away. This is something I have found to happen in older models and other GMC models. Also, I owned the car less than 2 years when the transmission had to be extensively repaired. Now GM doesn't want to replace/repair the interior plastic even though it is poor craftmanship. No more GM's for me. I will stick with Ford or some other American car.

Denali king of the road

After growing out of a BMX X5 the Denali has quickly become the household favorite. Plenty of room, handles very well and gets moving when you want it to. Tried the Z71 and it failed miserably compared to the Denali. We also bought the vehicle with the 20 inch rimms and it is terrific on the highway. Over 70 mph it lumbers in regards to the handling but we love this truck. Navigation is good but Magellan Roadmate is a much better option so if you want to save money skip the Nav package and get the Roadmate. Well crafted vehicle.

Becoming a bad experience!

We got our Yukon about 10 mos ago. Loved it up until the last 5000 miles. Inside of tires wearing, suspected bent frame. Dealer trying to push it off. Still trying to get resolved. Very comfortable for long trips with a family of 5. We think the cup holders could be improved upon (they did in '07s). Thinking I will have to find different SUV to replace the damaged one we have now. Check out the 4 recalls and 150 service bulletins. Not too impressive for a $50,000 vehicle.
