Looks nice! Loaded?
Thanks guys! To be honest I,m not sure about the loaded question. I'm a Ford truck guy up until this morning. These have been my favorite SUV along with the Escalade for a long time and I'm a gear head at heart so the raw power and sound even stock is just gorgeous. Also it fits family great which is a 6 person household.
Going back to the loaded question I can tell you it has captains chairs, chrome 20's, DVD, touch screen NAV w/Bose. That could all be standard as far as I know but it's more than enough for me. Only compromise over my 13 F150 was the audio system. Sony sound puts this one to shame and sync is way above this one light years. Otherwise I'm really into it, more than any other car in the past so I'm looking forward to a solid 7 years of ownership with a few plans in mind to keep me interested.

Cooled seats is the one thing I wish I had. Those would be nice in Florida. Only thing mine didn't have for the year was a heated steering wheel and power running boards.

Very nice.
I also just joined the club last week when I upgraded from an 05 Escalade to an 07. Fully loaded.
I almost bought a 2010 Escalade in that gray color of your Denali, it was a beautiful vehicle but was missing some must-have-for-me options. No moonroof, no heated steering wheel, and no cooled seats. The cooled seats are must-haves in the summer, and the heated wheel is very nice in the winter.
The 07 I found was perfect and fully loaded minus the power running boards that I didn't really want. I was a little leery about getting the 07 due to first year bugs but I found a super clean 07 with 70K miles for $10K less than I was going to spend on a 2010 with 60K miles. I only drive it on weekends so it didn't make a lot of sense to spend another $10k on a vehicle that I only drive about 3K miles a year.
I'm hoping my 07 gives me many years of smiles and comfort. Hope your 2011 gives you the same.

miss my previous Denali, yes I do.Thanks everyone. Sounds like it's loaded aside from power running boards. heated/cooled seats, power moonroof, heated steering wheel etc are there. I'm finding myself on a few extra coffee runs over the last day just to hear it start up.

Stock is pretty nice, definitely better than the previous generation in sound.
My new-to-me 07 (picked it up last Saturday) had a nice surprise when I went to look at it. A B&B exhaust system and a chrome mesh grill, a real stainless steel one like on my STS-V, and not a cheapy e-bay plastic one.
It was a good deal and also saved me in the grille and exhaust mods I didn't have to spend money on.
