    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Because posts on an internet forum is a barometer of what? I agree - what HAS this world come to. ---------- Post added at 05:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:42 AM ---------- A shit show? On a forum where these posts will leave indelible marks on the Internet? Man...I...

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Perhaps I should move down to SC. Apparently there, you can be little more than empty suit and afford nice cars like Escalades and Range Rovers.

    47 and that's all you got. Sad.

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    No one said that the Yukon was a crossover SUV. ---------- Post added at 09:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 PM ---------- Unless you're under 5'4" (which would explain a lot), I can't imagine how you would find the little Yukon's third row more comfortable. Your knees are up...

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    <Sigh> Again you missed my point. But it's the fact that you think you got it that's the most troubling part. Keep with the cute, vapid and substance-less retorts. It suits you far better. When you try to put coherent sentences together, it gets really comical. For example, let's try...

    Hah. Alright, I'll cool it. Have a good evening Soulsea.

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    You post a mocking .gif first and then accuse me of throwing personal insults? I wasn't going to read the rest of your post beyond that because I was certain you missed my point again. But then I did read it and confirmed my suspicion. It appears that your talent is adding quippy one...

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Your post and intellect is very disjointed. Can you seriously not conceive of a set of circumstances where this could occur? Perhaps giving a play by play will clear things up. In the case with the folks who ended up with the GL, they wanted a larger SUV with a usable third row, but thought...

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Irrelevant? Now this is just a wild guess but perhaps maybe they got cars smaller than what they actually wanted.

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Incidentally, both of those other folks went with European SUVs (GL and a used RR). But not sure why everyone is refuting the obvious. The XL IS tough to maneuver in tight parking lots and urban environments. Easier than a HD truck? Of course. But way tougher than some of the larger...

    Mid-Length Yukon?

    Would GM ever consider making a mid-length Yukon somewhere in between the SWB and the XL? Maybe 214" in length or so. On two separate occasions, people have told me that they went with other vehicles over the Yukon/Yukon XL because they thought the SWB version's third row seat was too...

    OFFICIAL: 2015.5 (2015i) Discussion Thread

    i imagine a good portion are purchased with straight cash. i'm personally of the view that if you cannot buy a car that costs over 50K with a single check and without it hurting too much, you shouldn't be buying the car (just my personal opinion so don't flame me - i don't really care what...

    For real. Are there a lot of folks here typing/using voice recognition from their phones? No one likes a grammar **** but some of these posts are incomprehensible.

    OFFICIAL: 2015.5 (2015i) Discussion Thread

    This is the biggest complaint I have of the new engine/transmission. Even the Denali doesn't seem as effortless as 6.2 liters of V8 engine would suggest. The V8 GL450 (I believe the 2015s use twin turbo V6s) would waft along city streets, keeping up with traffic while barely breaking 2000rpm...

    8spd low end torque

    Any available for the new 6.2L yet?

    8spd low end torque

    One thing I noticed when I drove the 6spd Denali was that it lacked the low end torque usually associated with V8s (especially push rod V8s). It didn't have that effortless feel that cars such as the Infiniti QX80, Mercedes GL450 and others exhibit. It had good power once you revved past...

    360 degree camera

    What would the cost be to retrofit this?

    360 degree camera

    I've used various manufacturers' versions of this technology. The one from Infiniti is excellent. You get a great bird's eye view of what is around you and the camera in front is very helpful for parking in tight spots. For me, this would be invaluable on a Denali XL. That truck will fit in...

    Lease an SLT for <600/mth

    I think it works for many urban drivers (granted, many city dwellers are probably not driving trucks like this). Limited miles, low(er) monthly payments and you get a new car every three years or so (less reliability issues even with urban driving that tends to take more of a toll on cars)...

    I think this is a mistake on GM's part. The 360 camera is very handy and many much smaller, far less costly cars have this feature.

    I think most are basing their statements on their experience with other manufacturers' 8 speeds, which, by and large, have proven to be markedly superior to their six speed units (BMW, Audi, etc.). Initial takes on the Corvette's new 8 speed also appear to be very positive. Who can argue with...

    2015 Tahoe vs 2015 GX

    I've probably spent about 10 hours total behind the wheel of a new GX. It's got superior off-road capability than the GM trucks and fit and finish is clearly better. You will also get better resale and reliability as you mentioned. The others have covered the cons and I would underscore the...

    Finally picked it up

    Isn't it illegal in at least some states to use fog lights when the weather is not inclement? I doubt anyone enforces it, but fog lights are annoying to oncoming drivers.

    Semantics. You get my point.

    2015 XL Denali - Junk?

    The problems that owners are reporting played a role in my holding off on this truck (Yukon Denali). I get that catastrophic problems can happen to any company's new cars (not marginalizing the OP's problems in the least), but they seem more anecdotally common among these GM triplets. Some...
