New to me 2007 Yukon SLT

[Charlie Davidson]

Hey folks, been a lurker here for a while for my parent's 2002 Tahoe and finally became the proud owner of a 2007 GMC Yukon SLT on Monday. Been dying to have one for a few years now, and patience paid off! (in more ways than one)

I'm not sure what the color is called... it's a light mix of silver and gold. All leather and power everything (even liftgate) with a sunroof. Has 129k on it and runs great. Just needs some brake maintenance and other TLC, but besides that, it's in great shape. It has everything on it that I wanted, and I still can't believe I got it before anyone else within 2 days of being on the lot. Whoever had it before me took good care of it. None of the buttons are even worn!

I owned a 2001 Ford Ranger XLT in excellent shape for 6 years before this, it was my first vehicle. I loved that truck and absolutely hated to sell it, broke my heart seeing it roll away without me in it.. but I didn't want to pay insurance on two vehicles and needed something with more room for my computer service business. However... missing my truck wore off after driving this for the past few days!

Looking forward to being a part of this awesome place!

Thanks! I wasn't sure what the name of the color was. I have to say I think this was a lucky find. I looked at all kinds of Tahoes and other Yukons this weekend that were in far less-than-perfect condition, had bad smells inside, were wore out and generally not taken care of. From the second I opened the door and didn't catch a whiff of a bad smell.. I knew this was the one. The only issue I had off the lot was the brakes were making the vehicle "wobble" forwards and backwards when I hit the brakes. All it needed was a new set of rotors and brake pads on the front. They work like a 2014 now.. and it was well worth the $175 I spent in parts, and saving $300+ doing it myself over letting a mechanic do it. I am very pleased!

Thanks man! The Denali grille and door handles must have been ordered from the factory or dealer-installed upon the original owner's purchase. One of the chrome handles is broken (typical of these) and the date code on it is April 2006, when the vehicle was manufactured. That was one of the selling points for me. Chrome looks super sharp on these.

You're going to love it. Just upgraded from an 02 Yukon SLT to an 07 Yukon SLT. Mine has 72000 and I am loving so far. Great looking truck man.
