New owner of 2014 Denali

[derfman00]

Have a new to us 2014 Yukon Denali, crystal red. Super clean 68k miles. Garage kept.

Ordered the factory chrome replacement grill. Got a great deal on eBay for $200 shipped. My wife is probably one of the only people who doesn't like the Denali grill. Ordered the blank insert to replace the bottom chrome grill. Debating on painting that red to match the Crystal Red...

Ordered the black leather heated steering wheel from the Tahoe. She can't get used to the wood trim ring. It hits her wedding ring in just the wrong way. Hopefully it is still available. I checked a few days ago and found a shop with a few in stock.

Ordered the storage bin with cup holders to replace the flip up. My wife's a teacher, she needs that bin. Also ordered the center console organizer tray.


Next up:

replace the crappy garage door opener with the homelink unit

Replace tail lights with 2015+ style lights

Tune from Black Bear


I'm having fun digging through the forums. Obviously 5 years after production, activity winds down. Hopefully we'll catch a second wave of owners. I'll post more pics when updates are done

Looks great welcome from Virginia and fellow GMT-900 owner.

Welcome, Looks good, I almost bought a Crystal Red one, but I've always had a thing for pearly white cars so White Diamond Tri-coat for me.

What's the difference between the Homelink and the Universal Remote Control systems and what year did they switch?

2001 Yukon SLT
2012 Yukon Denali XL

Welcome from Miami Beach!!

Your Yukon Denali looks perfect. Nice find with only 68K miles. Looks well maintained.

Welcome! Gorgeous truck! This is exactly the truck I want but in an XL! Looks to be in amazing condition too! Congrats!

gmpartshouse.com said there were 3 (two now) at their warehouse. That was on the 15th. I ordered yesterday. Hopefully there was at least one left...

Thank you!

We were looking for the XL as well, but this was too clean to pass up. There are only two blemishes on the entire exterior. It was garage kept and very well maintained. Sold by a very reputable dealership (they fixed a non functioning mirror and broken trim piece AFTER purchase) and were able to get a 4/48 extended warranty (full electronic and mechanical) this is about 3 years of driving for us. Every XL we saw had at least 80k on it and was still over $30k

We had a 2009 Durango before this and will miss the rear cargo space, but my two 6ft tall boys are liking the comfy middle row. The lack of auto up windows irks me, but I guess the Cadillac owners had to get something..

Those mid row bucket seats are quite comfy haha. Yeah the auto windows is a bit annoying but I’ve seen a couple threads on an aftermarket module that will make your windows do that.

The biggest for me is that homelink can be programmed to gates. For some reason, GM switched to learcar2u module and it can only learn dip switch openers

There was a clean 2012 with 80k miles that sold right before I found this one.

well see those are sold out everywhere, I just ordered one as well, I guess we will find out tomorrow

 

[Doubeleive]

and...my retarded butt entered the wrong email address when I ordered, the order say's "on order" as of the end of today which probably means they don't have them in stock and it will end up getting canceled and refunded.

 

[derfman00]

No cancellation yet. Fingers crossed

I thought mine would need switching over too after we moved. Turns out we just had to follow a different set of procedures to get the garage door programmed; it has no dip switches. Couldn't tell you how, I turned it over to my kids in frustration! LOL

I have a tracking number as of this morning!

ORDER COMPLETED with a tracking number! Here's to hoping they actually have one to stick the label on
