Hello all! I just bought an 03 Yukon to daily drive/overland. It is far from pretty, but the MN winters/salt has not been too harsh on it for a 2003. If you're from MN, you understand. It's got quite a bit of clear coat blisters/scratches/mild dents/rust. It runs great, and handles pretty good though. I've owned two Suburbans in the past, so the Yukon seems nimble comparatively. :) I have plans for a roof tent, mild lift for slightly larger tires, adding more exterior lighting, and maybe a winch. I just got it this week. I don't even have any pictures of it yet, but it's pretty stock right now, nothing to brag about so far. Anyways, I just wanted to say "Hello"! I'm sure there is a wealth of knowledge I can learn from this group, so I'm happy I joined!

Welcome from Kansas.

My 07 started its upgrade journey with similar challenges and I have done several of the mods that you mentioned and more (larger tires, lift, winch, bumpers, roof rack…). This is a fantastic place to leverage wisdom from so many great people with common interests. Good luck… be sure to post pics!
