no CEL on or flashing...no codes viewed from several scans with my BlueDriver scanner...thanks guys...the only time I have heard the pinging is 3 times in 700 miles now and only when I did the WOT/flattened the gas pedal on the highway...and it doesn't do this continually
thanks for the help

the page quoted from the Owners Manual by wjburken shows that GM recommends 87 octane for the 6.0 LQ4...Time to run premium. Pretty sure the 6.0L recommended at least mid-grade but I’d just run premium. Spark knock is bad for the pistons and a little extra for higher octane is cheaper than a new engine.
I do appreciate your response but I don't get anything more than what is written above...I may try the higher octane next fill up but I have read some people have tried the higher octane only to get no relief from what I am experiencing...From the owners manual for a 2005 Yukon Denali

Guess GM expects it to do what you’re experiencing.
Might try a higher octane rating and see what happens.
