Denali vs Yukon

[Rollin Thunder]

yukon xl ftw. the upgraded much better than a tahoe vehicle.

 

[Fyrcaptain]

Most of all, I want a vehicle from an American company.

.....but assembled in Mexico.......

suckkk it ******* you payed for a tahoe but you actually just payed more haha.

plus i like my grill and headlights more!!!! i still love yukons but easy on the sass money bags!

I like both but I like the bigger grille. I didn't pay alot for mine. And that wasn't meant in a bad way, just a little pun.

IF you plan on garaging the nali and an XL will fit then get the XL especially with 3 kids as there is not much room behind the 3rd row seats for storage if all 3 rows of seats are being used. I can't get an XL in my garage or i'd have and xl. whoever said that the 6.0 awd mpg is close to the same of a 5.3 hasn't driven a nali on a daily basis. I get between 12-13 in town and on a good down hill trip to texas will maybe get close to 16 on the highway. my 99 gmc sierra ec 2wd 5.3l was getting 15 in town and 19 on the hwy. that being said if you want something for small road trips and can afford the gas get the nali...otherwise look into a z71 tahoe that gives you much of the same features, but with the 5.3l and non awd...(can switch from 2wd to 4wd) and save on the gas a bit...imho. I sometimes wish this was the route I went in Feb.

That is the question, who built it and where, and where does the money go. So when looked for a new lawn tractor, do I buy one who's parent company is U.S. but it is built foreign, or do I buy say a Kubota, that is built in Georgia and is a Japanese corporation. Same with my in-laws Toyota, built in U.S., but a Japanese company.

Heck the Detroit Diesels in our fire engines are owned by a German company, I believe.

x2 gas mileage kinda blows. and the XL is the shit. i can seat 6 or 7 ppl comfortably, pass on the highway no prob, and still have a big ass sub box in the back.

My yukon was built in the Janiff plant and my silverado in tx.

I'd have to agree, If I could do it again, I'd grab a Denalli XL in a heartbeat!! With my third row up, i literally have no storage space.

XL is ******* huge. I think my Denali is perfect even with a decent sized sub box, wish the made a rcsb Denali truck...I'd love to build one that layed frame with a t-56 and a nasty 600hp na smallblock.

I've owned 2 denalis, bought my first one when the new body style first dropped...I've always averaged 15-16 mpg...but I drive 3 over the limit at all times.

XLs look like a bus.
