15 yukon SLE or tahoe lt?

[Pericles]

Looking to upgrade my 10 escalade to a 15 tahoe or yukon. Looking at used under 50k miles and under 40k. Only yukon I've found are sle and cloth interior. There are plenty of lt tahoes. What is the better CHOICe of the two everything remaining equal? I like the looks of the Yukon better but idk if i can live without leather. I'm in dfw area.

1 word.

Katzkin

Katzin if installed right will be better quality leather than what's in an LT Tahoe and the customization options are endless. I think installed the going price for all three rows are around $2k depending on options.

So you're ok with giving up your 6.2 for a 5.3? I wouldn't.

The nnbs interiors look like relics compared to the 15+ interiors. I'd take a 15+ SLE with katkinz leather over a nnbs personally, even if the nnbs has a 6.2.

Sle and add leather. I'm super happy with my sle and will be adding the katzkin shortly.

Also keep in mind the Tahoe LT's have heated leather while the Yukon SLE's don't.

Edit: I see you're from Dallas/Forth Worth so that would be a non factor lol.

Well I just drove a 15 Tahoe today and it's faster than my escalade easily so yes

I went and test drove both yesterday. Here's what didn't make sense.. I ended up driving an slt and a lt as the dealer had both. I'm not sure if the Yukon had been wrecked but the car felt off. AC would fluctuate and the seats were not comfy, felt like extremely worn. The Tahoe felt more solid, more responsive, and much more padded seats. They both had 40k miles. Interior in the Tahoe smelled like wet feet so I walked from both. Is this expected between the two? I would have assumed the Yukon would have been nicer

They should ride about the same and my sle seats are just as good as a tahoe. Rise vehicles sound like they were just bad news.
