In short, im contemplating selling my 03 yukon xl (105k), runs and drives great and literally zero issues in last four years for a 07 denali xl (have not found one yet). Im just itching for more bells and whistles.
My main worry is selling a reliable vehicle for one that may not.
Has anyone been in this position before? Looking for opinions as well. Thanks!

IMO, I think the NBS trucks is one of the best body styles, so I'd keep it and update it. 105k miles isn't much either if it's been maintained well too. I still have my 2001 Silverado LT 4x4 with 270k miles and it's all original stuff, even though I just bought a 2016 Yukon XL. I just update little things here and there to keep it fresh.

If I had an 03 with only 105 on it and it wasn't giving me any problems I'd just keep driving it and possibly update it. Not worth the risk of buying something else that's used that you don't know the true history on.

As others have said. I'd keep the Yukon as well. You know the history of it and its got a lot of life left in it at that mileage. It will be hard to find a under 100k miles 2007 or better a 2009 Denali, depending on your budget. If your truck is looking old maybe a new paint job and some other upgrades will help out.

Pull the trigger on a 6.2, 6sp and dont look back...I have had an 04 Z71, 07 LTZ, and now a Denali. Denali is the best so far. However, none of them had any issues. Go test drive one, I bet almost anything you go home with it.

Same position but different years
I have been offered 03 suburban for my 99 Yukon in the same price yet my Yukon is super clean so I kept it and I advice to keep yours also and give it a nice Matt paint job
The final result will make you forgot the idea of selling it

If only moving up to an '07, i'd keep the '03.

Personally i dont think i would swap my '05 for anything not new right now.

I've got an '06 with only 73K and no payments. Mods and maintenance are the only expenses. I drive a 2015 Suburban for work. Super plush, but love my NBS hands down.
