Unexpectedly in market for 25 Yukon Denali Ultimate

I purchased a 24 Denali Ultimate short wheel base in August. Love the truck. This past weekend another driver t-***** me on the driver's side, just behind the driver door. Thankfully no one was hurt. Insurance told me today the frame is badly damaged, and needs a new frame, and a replacement frame would not be readily available so value and time is why they are totalling the truck.

So now I find myself online shopping for a replacement 2025 Denali Ultimate in White. Hard to find. Has anyone used a broker or found a consistent place to get good pricing on the 2025's? I have GM Supplier, but when I bought the 2024, I was able to do a little better than Supplier because the refresh was happening.

Finding exactly what you want will be relatively hard to do especially if you think you're just going to find one sitting or somewhere. You're either going to have to compromise on a few things and pick one up or you're just going to have to order it and wait it out. They are definitely making it out in public now, but there still isn't a million of them out there I'm on month number 5 of waiting for mine, but the end is in sight....

Also, it's going to be pretty hard to strike a bargain on these until their demand drops a little bit... I see dealers adding 5K to stickers on these, but I don't see too many people dropping 5K off the sticker....

Sorry to hear about that but if you’re not injured that’s the best outcome!

Be patient. With the economic situation we have I think you should get some great deals if you take your time. I would even recommend a long term rental so you are not driven by necessity. I think it’s a buyer’s market and you can do a lot of research on the internet. Don’t rule out driving out of your range to negotiate a deal on the vehicle you want.

The Denali Ultimate is amazing truck but also consider the Escalade and the Chevy High Country.

Good luck with your search and post your choices with pictures and the geniuses on this forum will be happy to chime in and help! I think you might find some awesome deals out there if you are patient!

Where are you located?

City/State?

I may have a few suggestions, but need to know where you are located.

I cannot help you on your new truck search, but I am happy that your truck was able to protect you and your riders during the accident.

Know where there is a 2024 Escalade still on the lot...

Searching GMC Inventory on GMC.com shows 100 White Ultimates in the country...Some in transit, some in stock.

My zip is 77384 Conroe TX. GMC.com shows closest 2025 Tri-white YDU is near Baytown TX 90min from me in traffic, but they weren’t interested in negotiating over the phone and delivering the truck to me. These Houston area car dealers all run the same delay / deflect and wear customers down game. If there are brokers / buyer-agent on here that handle GMC and Cadillac, pls hmu.

Fly up to michigan, get employee discount or friends discount if you qualify and drive it home. Lots of availability of here

Check out Laura and Rivard. A neighbor just purchased a 2025 Yukon Denali XL from Rivard all over the phone/online and had it delivered.

Overall seemed to be very good pricing and he was happy with how the transaction went.

I once had this problem a few years ago and when I was having trouble finding the exact same truck I told the insurance company to help find it. And they did and trucked it 2600 miles on a flat bed. Thay paid all the expenses and the extra ir cost as they didn't negotiate the price.
