Hey all.. Great site, tons of useful info. I am a forum *****.


Purchased a 2005 GMC Yukon today.. I am not versed on trim levels or anything, but I got it for towing, camping, airsoft, and hunting duties. It is the perfect size without being too big.. Just a nice addition to all of my other toys.

Look forward to familiarizing myself with this vehicle, as well as getting to know you all.


I guess I'll add a pic tomorrow when it is sunny.

I'll get some better pics once it is clean..


Thinking of removing side mouldings, the pinstriping... Have a few issues to resolve with the engine (CEL mysteriously showed today), but nothing a quick inexpensive trip to autozone or dealer wont remedy. Radio/CD player issue... And a few customization add ons to make her mine. Again, nothing major. This is intended for recreational use.

Any tips, constructive critisism is appreciated. Owned for less than 48 hours.What you see, is what I got from the Seller.

Looks good man. I see the truck came with the denali grill and windows tinted. Can't wait to see the progression on this truck. For demolding, may I suggest a heat gun to heat up adhesive, fishing line to cut adhesive and a 3M eraser wheel to remove adhesive.

^ +1!!!!! I think the truck looks great and I agree, the Pinstripe should go. Other then that, looking really good!!!!!!!

Is this a 4x4?
