And this is useful:

2015-chevrolet-suburban-06.jpg

Once you start paying attention to the details, interior and exterior, there's an awful lot to like about these SUVs. And GM seems to have noted all our complaints abut HIDs, fold flat seats, crappy nav/dated interior, 2nd row windows not going all the way down. The Denali is actually better equipped than any current Esky.

So mostly wins from my pov on the K2XX, except for the catastrophic tahoe/Burb front end. Someone needs to kill that with fire.

Ooooooo.... save for the color, the design of the passenger/cargo space is awesome. I will always believe that a Yukon or Hoe is better for clean hauling (not timber, dirt, other obvious dirties) than a short bed pickup if you know how to pack, mostly because theres guaranteed weather protection. That interior only makes the claim better.

The Yukon is growing on me, once de-chromed maybe..

@soulsea - You're right, even including magnetic ride. These have everything and more than the Esky. So... what is the Esky going to have other than being stock Denali and hopefully, hopefully, having a more likeable exterior? Electro-magnetic ride? :p

Maybe I misunderstood, but the fold flat option was for the Burban and XL only, no?

Those new Denalis looks mighty tasty!!!

All of them have 2nd/3rd row fold flat. Some do not have the power option on the 2nd row.

I didn't watch any release. But did read this?

The Tahoe/Yukon models get more rear legroom, sorely needed. The long-wheelbase, three-row Chevy Suburban and GMC Yukon XL models get more sensible and useful folding logic for the second and third rows, allowing a flat cargo floor and offering an optional power-fold feature.

That makes it sound like just the bigger models get the folding rows. :think:

The red truck pic I posted above with all the seats folded down is a Tahoe.

The second row looks folded down just like the current model. Thought it was some new technology. Guess they implied that towards the third row more so.
