Fantastic engine!

I have an 04' Denali with the 6.0 engine. I'm at mile 399,00 and still going. Only complaint is some electrical issues but nothing too major. Definitely the most reliable engine I have ever driven.

Best truck i have ever owned

I had one just sold it a couple months ago but i loved my truck never thought i would get rid of it , never had a problem with it only problem i had one time was the that it was over heating, just to change the radiator but after that it was working great. If i could i would definitely buy another one.

Best vehicle we have ever owned

We bought this slightly used in 2004 and we currently have 375000 miles on it. It still runs and rides just like it did the day we bought it. We have only had to replace the fuel pump and brake lines which is normal for a high mileage vehicle. The instrument cluster did go out at about 100k but with a little time we fixed it and it has never bothered since.

I've never been disappointed in it.

I have always loved this car. Truly a great utility vehicle, and incredibly reliable. It's always been very well taken care of, always had a garage as home.

Owned my 2004 Yukon Denali for 14 years.

I traded this vehicle in at about 115,000 miles, which is quite low compared to others I have seen. I always thought the Yukon/Tahoe body style looked better than the larger XL/Suburban. In terms of practicality, I should have opted for the XL. The gas mileage was almost identical, but the cargo capacity of the XL would have fit me better. Over the years, I replaced tires, shocks, and batteries like everyone else. The rear air suspension replacement was a little tricky. Had to replace both air shocks, plus the compressor. I also had to replace the gage cluster, seat motor (twice), and the rear view mirror due to electronics. Many of these vehicles are being parted out, so replacement parts are quite reasonable, compared to dealer prices. The last thing that went wrong was the evap/charcoal system, which was my fault for over-filling the tank. This was even more frustrating because the computer was not sophisticated enough to tell me what particular component was bad. I had to replace everything, then found out that one of the (new) after-market replacement parts was bad. If you buy one and purchase an additional warranty, make sure it includes the electronics. And do not overfill the gas tank.

LOVE IT, Chevy/GMC or nothing

Recently bought this. Also own a 96 2 door Tahoe and she's a beast, still going strong at 308,000 miles. I only bought this yukon because I recently sold my backup vehicle, which was a Ford Explorer. Never had a GMC, knew it meant more features/luxury, but omg I'm in love with it. The ride is amazing and the 5.3 v8 is plenty of power. If you're thinking about a yukon, go with the SLT model. It's got all the goodies, you won't regret it!

GMC Yukon

I love it, it's very comfort and smooth riding. It hauls my boat real good and ever since I've gotten it, I've been in love with it.
