Hi guys, first time poster here, and posting from an iPhone so please excuse any spelling and grammar mistakes. Me and my wife were looking for 2010 LTZ when we stumbled upon this 2009 Yukon Denali with 39,000 miles and a price tag of $39,000. It has every option, and the inside is very slick. In your opinion, is this a good buy or should I just move on. Also, I'd like to see a window sticker of it but this is being sold at a Nissan Dealership.... So could i take the VIN down to a GMC dealership and have them pull one for me? Thanks guys!

Seems like a good buy. I would seriously try and get the numbers down 35 would be my number you'll probably end up getting it. Its a Denali so you'll get all the bells and whistles on it. Trust me you won't regret driving a yukon lol.

I had a Tahoe LTZ and after a few months, I wanted a Denali. Better leather and 6.2L are the two main attributes that make it THAT much better.

When I got my nali. I went to buy a Tahoe. But the better interior and 6.2 got me to buy a Yukon. The 6.2 and 6 speed trans is a huge deference IMO.

I agree 100% redsled. The leather is so much better in the Denali. It's plusher and much softer then the standard Yukon/Tahoe.

Also went to dealership to buy brand new tahoe at the time, ended up walking out in a 2009 denali with 14k miles for the same price, it is really worth it over a tahoe even though i love my tahoes. The awd, 6speed, and 6.2, and that leather mentioned earlier, you will NOT regret it.

I bought an 09 Denali with 44k miles on it about a year ago. I love it. The engine is great (no substitute for horsepower), and so are the cooled seats in summer.

We bought our 08 Denali last week with 47k on the clock for $37k. Definitely one of the nicest vehicles we have ever owned...

Yep Denali XL kills the burb with its features. Only thing I like better about the burb is the front end but that's all opinion based ;)

I woulda made the same decision as you!

Denali definitely moves pretty quick for a vehicle its size. It also has a nice exhaust note.

I would definitely go for the Denali, but would pass on this particular truck. $39000 for a truck with 39000 miles seems high to me. When I was looking for my tahoe a few months ago a gmc dealer near me had a 2009 denali XL with 27000 miles listed at $36000. It was clean & 1-owner.

I would hang tight and keep your eyes open for one with under 30000 miles for between $35000-$40000.

Also with the 0% financing and discounts GM is giving on New yukons...a used one for $40k doesn't really make much sense. Not to mention when it comes time to sell the value of a 1 owner truck will be much higher than a 2-owner one.

Just my 2¢ :)

Thanks for all the replies guys... I didn't get that one, my wife decided she didnt like the black. So we got a '09 White Diamond Denali, certfied pre-owned so it came with a 12,000 mile bumper to bumper and free oil changes for two years. Only had it about a week, but so far, we love it!
