I sincerely loved Huck's Yukon and I planned to keep it (how many times have I said that one?), but I got an offer that I couldn't refuse. The owner of the company came in about a month ago and asked if i wanted a stab at buying his 2016 Yukon Denali with 125k miles on it. We came to a price I honestly didn't think I could beat, and I took the plunge. This will be my DD (I drive very low miles) and it will be our weekends and out of town vehicle. I was really wanting to get black interior, but the dune is really growing on me. Here are a few pictures and I can't wait to start doing little things to it.

I already swapped out tag lights to led and I have color matched GMC emblems to go on it.

Only mods planned are:
All Season mats throughout
LED fogs or retrofits from Morimoto
Tint
maybe leveling

I hope this one stays around for a long time. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will do paint correction, Gtechniq CSL and EXO, and leather coat the seats.

On to the pictures.

I assume the previous Yukon found a good home? She was a clean one.

One of my good friends in town bought it. I literally called him and told him what I was thinking about doing, and he said "Bring it to the house and give me a price"

Made the entire decision a lot easier to make. He is a car guy and will more than likely do a few small mods and then start on performance goodies.

I was wondering if anyone would notice. Yeah it has 125k miles on it. Previous owner drives a TON of miles. In the one month we waited for his Tesla (so I could purchase this one) he put 4k miles on it.

Same thing here ... I got a smoking deal IMO and I know that it was well taken care of...hopefully it lasts me a LONG LONG time.

It will. When well maintained, the full size GMs last forever it seems

Dang that’s crazy! I can’t imagine putting that many miles on a vehicle in such a short times. I maybe drive 20 miles a day. Lol. But then again I live in a small mountain town. And days where I drive more miles than that in a day are not that often. I dont doubt though that when these trucks are well maintained they last a long long time.

I am the same way...I don't drive very much at all. I have helped the owner take care of this thing since he bought it. I detailed and ceramic coated it with like 1100 miles on it. Here are pictures from when he bought it.

According to KBB with miles accounted for, I paid a few grand less than trade in for it.

According to Edmunds I got it for like 6-7k below clean trade in.

Is what you gave for it a secret?

Haha...now that you mention it, I guess it isn't a big deal. I don't know why I didn't post that off the bat. I guess I didn't want to get into the banter on if i got a good deal or not (not with you, just in general).

I paid 22k before taxes.

BTW Morimoto XB LED fogs are ordered and I removed the cross bars off the roof rack.

Very nice deal. I made a similar deal on my 07 back in 2010 and it had similar mileage on it as you have on yours. It took a few years before the "worth" of it per NADA was less than my purchase price.
