We bought a new 2018 Denali on a good sale in December 2017. It has the 10 speed transmission and is simply amazing. Regular driving at highway speeds, 65 to 75 mph, yield 23 to 26 mpg on a regular basis. Obviously the tranny keeps engine speed low, but the shutters in front of the radiator help aerodynamics and the engine cylinder switching helps some too. We plan to buy a 2021 or 2022 Yukon in the next year and are excited about the new irs, interior space and new technology.

only the 6.2 liter had the 10 speed... my 2018 with the 5.3 (along with my Parents 2019 5.3 yukon) both had a 6 speed

Not sure a 4Runner is a good comp to a Tahoe. If you want to do a better comp, you probably need to look at a Sequoia.
Do the Tahoe's and Suburban's still come with AFM? I have an 07 Suburban, which I believe is the first gen of AFM and being honest, I'll probably never buy another GM V8 SUV because of it. We've gotten plenty of use out of our Suburban but it hasn't been without pain and some serious oil consumption. I had AFM disabled at a tune shop many many miles ago. I'm assuming they have worked some of the kinks out of that feature by now, right?

The 2021's have Dynamic Fuel Management. Too early to tell how that is going to work out.
On the 2015-2020's [AFM] only heard of a very small sprinkling having issues but as I recall some were from neglected maintenance from pushing their oil changes beyond 5-7K miles. Some could have been from using the wrong grade oil. That is just IMHO. Some people think they know more then the engineers that make these vehicles. The 2015+ [including the 2021] all call for 0W20.
No, it's not.

All new
I have a ‘13 4runner. Aside from different bumpers and lights snd some interior changes the new ones are exactly the same. Great truck I love it. We just got the wife a ‘19 YukonXl. Granted not a smaller Yukon. they are two different vehicles. Depends on what you need and want. The 4runner is great and I don’t plan on getting rid of it
