    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Thanks y'all...still deciding if I got the deal of the century or got screwed. Have to admit I found a record of the previous owner via the radio...and through a little search of FB. found the attached photo....that looks a little heavier than the 9400 it's rated for. Wonder A) what that...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    I was gonna ask you about that :) So how do you find out how many of this model were made in a particular year again? The more I learn the more I realize how truly rare this truck is. Oh - also - it doesn't have the power seat release buttons on the ceiling like yours...but everything else is...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Here's a pic! Its a 2013 Yukon XL 2500 SLT, bought it from a GMC dealer in Richmond VA. I had been searching for this car for a year. Very hard to find a good used 2500 suburban/Yukon that isn't beat to death. I had a search on cars.com that would send me updates...when one popped up I would...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Thanks - tomorrow is pull the trigger day for us. I am a little hesitant to do it because I am paying pretty much the retail value of this truck plus tax - but given its rarity I guess I should be happy. I've seen dealers gouging prices on these. Also a little hesitant because our Denali has...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Wow that sucks. Yeah my greatest fear traveling through Utah in 100 degree heat this summer was that we would get stranded, broken down in some area on a two lane road with no cell coverage. My eyes went back and forth between road, mirrors, engine temp, trans temp...the whole time. Cutting...

    2007 Tahoe Z71 Fender Flare removal...

    Nice job - I am trying to do the reverse, to ADD Z71 flares to my Yukon XL. One because I like them but also to hide some scratches from previous fender flares. Are yours still available? Wonder if they could be re-used with new 3m tape...

    Newer Suburban or Yukon XL Questions

    FWIW...Just towed across the country, southern route, with a 2010 Yukon XL Denali...and it did fine towing a 5k lb TT. Good. not GREAT, didn't love hills, but still manageable. I did add two large transmission coolers in place of the factory small one, and it did make a big difference. Trans...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Thanks, good stuff guys. I guess in my case since its a Yukon, it wouldn't be 3lt, or lt3, anyway...its an SLT, so maybe an SLT2. This one does have second row power folding, but it is not up on the roof console (IIRC). Still having a hard time giving up our Denali, it is a great truck. And...

    Also, how do you tell how many were built in a specific year? Curious here.

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Very cool. I think I have found one, don't want to say where exactly as that is classified LOL but will know more tomorrow. The one I am looking at has a window sticker; I should have taken a picture of it; don't remember seeing if it was 3LT or not but it does have nav and two DVD screens...

    07 Denali: Large Roadtrip Upcoming. Advice?

    Thanks Burbs...very encouraging! I am going to look at the 2500 Yukon tomorrow. I will miss a few of the Denali features, but this one has most of the goodies.

    Just purchased a 2011 Yukon XL 4x4 2500 - Time to change all the fluids

    I followed a guys advice on youtube replaced my trans fluid with Royal Purple. Can't say I would do it again. It does NOT say Dexron VI on it, though the advice was, its just better. Not sure of that. I got a shudder when shifting through gears as if my torque converter was having issues...

    2012 GMC Yukon XL 2500

    Very nice truck. These are so hard to find. I have been looking for a year and am about to (I hope) pull the trigger on one this week. We are moving from a 2010 Yukon XL Denali - which we love - to a 2013 Yukon XL 2500...because we want more towing. The Denali is rated to pull 7,800 - our...
