    Max Trailering Package Blues

    I have a 2021 Yukon Denali 6.2L w/7,500 towing and 750lb tonque specs + overall GVWR with plenty of room for people and stuff above the 750lb tonque specs. It didn't come with 'max trailering' but has "Tow Mode" and "Trailering App" (to check lights). I added the Curtis controller for Yukons...

    low hanging independent rear suspension any problems

    I went with the idea that a 2021 Sierra 1500 is same frame as 2021 Yukon Denali and bought a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 front hitch from etrailer.com. Mine is 6.2L gas but not sure the engine type (gas or diesel) matters as a frame is a frame as long as there's nothing in the way where it goes...

    low hanging independent rear suspension any problems

    We like to camp in remote places and use our 2021 Yukon Denali (just stock/factory) to explore roads like this. Sometimes they have wash-outs, puddles several inches deep, and rocks sticking up, and we've scraped the rear independent suspension once or twice on rocks. Also scratches down the...

    Monthly payments

    And over a long payment agreement, it's wise to ask up front for them so show you language in the loan where you can pay early to reduce overall interest! You might get extra $ down the road and would like to pay less interest by paying things off early. I bring this up because I've heard...

    Just bought (now fixing!) 2021 Yukon XL Denali

    We have a used 2021 Yukon Denali we purchased in 2023 and love it. 20K towing miles so far. Nice to see you're progress and that you like yours as well. One of the 1st things I did was pop the SD card (in center console) thinking it was like USB/songs? not realizing it was nav and this...

    Keep power running boards extended

    We have 2021 Yukon Denali 6.2L. Out camping and exploring a semi-off-road track, dirt wedged in somehow and they wouldn't deploy! / makes it difficult to get in/out when this happens. As stated above I couldn't freeze them open via software/settings. So I too am interested if OK to pull...

    Aftermarket running boards

    I have a standard (factory) 2021 Yukon Denali with powered running boards. Looks like 12" from floor to step on mine.

    2021 Yukon - Anyone else's turn signal sound cutting in/out?

    Hey all... I'm OLD and my hearing isn't the best but have realized that it's not my hearing but my 2021 Yukon Denali with 72K miles. The turn signal 'sound' cuts in/out. It will sound, sound, sound, silent............, sound, sound, sound, silent..........., sound, sound, sound. Not my...

    Monthly payments

    If I may gently comment... I didn't get 'out of debt' until mid-30s and I've never looked back since. I understand, no judgement, but just the observation that save and buy helps you A LOT over time rather than finance and pay interest - especially on a commodity that looses value such as a...

    AutoStop Eliminator

    Yes sir - mine's been in my 2021 Yukon Denali 6.2L for 2 years with no issue, no rattling. I think I ziptied it? but not sure. Love it. I tow a lot and wish I could as easily stop these un-commanded breaking events at 65mph because the senors/software is DUMB. For example, this week was...

    Fifth generation (2021+) Total Mileage?

    2021 Yukon Denali 6.2 at 71K miles, 1st 50K was Hertz rental, last 20K (I've owned since Aug 2023) towing 5500lb trailer. Love the rig!

    Died at 70mph on I-75

    It's a tough decision as you don't know what will happen in the future. Even if you get something else, it may have trouble as well. I bought a new 2004 Cadillac SRX and it was in the shop for significant engine oil leaks 3 times in 1st 5 weeks of ownership - they eventually tore the engine...

    Operating Temps

    My 2021 Yukon Denali, 6.2L runs 210F Coolant - rock steady. Transmission ranges from ~160-170F (normal, flat highway, 60mph) and as high as ~200F towing that 5500lb trailer up a 10mile mountain incline. A week spot while towing showed up during stop-go (literally 1mph for almost 40minutes)...

    Died at 70mph on I-75

    First, my sympathies to those failures, and the ensuing hassle being stranded - no denying this! Don't blame anyone for moving to different rig. On the other hand, my 2021 Yukon Denali w/6.2 is at 79K and running great. LOVE the rig! If the stats on 6.2 are to be believed, it's 95%'ish...

    AutoStop Eliminator

    Installed this (behind the dash) on my 2021 Yukon Denali and it wasn't bad. Absolutely a good decision / works smoothly :) But auto stop = off still shows on the DIC (along with some other annoying notifications such as lane assist = off) when I start. I notice the engine seems to 'try...
