Awesome Vehicle

2008 GMC Yukon Denali 4dr SUV AWD (6.2L 8cyl 6A)

This is a very nice vehicle, my wife loves the smooth ride. I enjoy knowing my family is safe with the AWD stabletrac system. Avg 14 MPG, but I knew that prior to purchasing (a small price to pay for safety and luxury).

Great SUV from GMC

We purchased the GMC 08 Denali after many reviews and this SUV offered the best value compared to the other options,(BMW,Lexus,Ford,etc). We love the way it drives, comfortable layout, nice interior features. If you are looking for 30 MPG, this is not your vehicle. The only negative is the gas mileage but we knew that before buying it. I strongly recommend the GMC Denali if you like great performance (6.2L V-8 for towing),great interior features(heated seats,steering wheel,comfortable seating with lots of room) and nice look (new body style from the 2006 denali). I would recommend one to my friends and family but get a gas card.

2008 GMC Yukon SLE 4dr SUV (5.3L 8cyl 4A)

Our SLT 4wd, 5.3 now has 78k miles (10/22) and has been nothing but a pleasure save for the rather primitive 4 cog transmission. I bought it years ago from my elderly neighbor when he retired. Other than lifting the front springs up 2”; it’s as it left the factory; always garaged, averages 18mpg fully loaded up to our Maine house and runs like a champ. I’d get a new one but don’t care to spend $80,000 when this one is nearly perfect and only 15 years young. Used ones now are either worn to the bone or blinged out (and also worn out). Mine is the E85 version and gas here in NY is under $3/gal. Taking care of these beauties is straight forward. I would trade mine for anything.

2008 Denali AWD

We first test drove the yukon SLT to replace our 2005 Denali. We never used the rear DVD player or Navigation in our 2005 so we thought we would down grade to the regular Yukon. NOT! Had to go back to the Denali series because the regular yukon didnt compare to the comfort we were used too. So we purchased a 2008 Denali.

I test drove 6 vehicles before I settled for this one. This one wasn't even my 1st choice but I couldn't pass up the great deal I was getting and so far its been good. The handling is pretty good and fuel economy is what can be expected out of an AWD SUV. The vehicle comes with a lot of standard features(denali) like heated seats, remote start, etc. My only real problem is the 3rd row seat. Does not fold down to the ground and is made for children. Other models like the 2008 Toyota Sequoia and 2008 Lincoln Navigator can sit full grown adults back there and does fold down to the ground and other crossovers of GM do this so why not the full size SUVs.
