Holy crap man, get to the point. He finally starts #1 at 03:25. #2 04:10. #3 05:24. #4 06:30. #5 08:01.
Spot on! I stopped listening to his rambling before #3. Thanks for identifying the start points.
Yeah forreal, dude was giving me a headache 🤕
Seriously, we come here for the points, not to hear some soccer mom ramblings, no offense to soccer moms.
And all of that has nothing to do with the Duramax. He could complain about the color as well, saying "GM basically gives us different Denalies with all these color options!!!"
Thank you for suffering through this for us. Much appreciated
I actually prefer fixed running boards. No motors to go bad. No moving parts to fill up with snow and salt. May not look as clean but zero long term issues. Not cheap to fix even if you can do the work
100% agree with you and am glad that GM offers fixed running boards on all trim levels of their full size SUV's
Not everyone wants 26” wheels on their daily driver…
@Michael whatever, you get my point. Not everyone’s wants brushed oversized wheels on their wife’s daily driver. Or their daily driver.
exactly, it rides better with smaller wheels and thicker sidewalls anyway
I actual optioned mine with the 20s because of the look and ride comfort.
Love the new Denali! My wife's '21 Tahoe had the auto start/stop feature left off of it because of the chip shortage. Blessing in disguise.
I’m actually in the process of swapping my 2001 GMC Yukon to a duramax!! I’ve had the truck forever and I absolutely love it!!! I’ve done allot to it like rims, tires, sound system, paint, debadged it and all kinds of stuff. I pull my 20’ heavy equipment trailer all the time with it and she’s does good for the 5.3 but It’s been my dream/goal to put a duramax in it!
That'll be sick my man!
A 6.6 duramax I hope
@@ryanbrown918 hell yeah thanks man. I think it will be too lol definitely one of a kind
@@scr2392 yes that’s what I want to put in mine that’s why I haven’t done it yet bc I’m looking for the engine that’s not ridiculously priced but not a pos either. I’m a welder and have my own small shop so I can weld the motor mounts to make it fit. Plus I’m gonna do a custom lift and reinforce the frame to make it more sturdy
@@garymiller652 best bet for engine would be to buy a wrecked truck with a duramax
Yes, hate the dealer stickers! Last 3 vehicles had them off in the first 24 hrs of being home!
I made it clear when shopping that I did not want any stickers or dealer licence plate brackets applied to my vehicle. They were totally fine with it.
There are reasons that GM offers multiple options and packages on the Denali line - 1) The 22" wheels are incompatible with snow chains/ cables so those that live in areas with occasional snow (not enough to justify a separate set of wheels with snow tires) would not be able to drive their vehicles if chains were required. 2) Appearance aside, the ride quality with the 22" wheels is substantially inferior to the 20s. The exception is the Cadillac's suspension system and tuning which isn't available on the current model Denali. 3) Some people might want the basic Denali equipment such as the 6.2L engine and interior upgrades WITHOUT the larger wheels and power running boards.
Speaking of wheels, asthetics are entirely subjective. Not everyone wants overly stylized and/ or ill fitting options that reduce vehicle dynamics and fuel economy....
I used to buy all GM, from cars to pickups to vans but I have found that since about 2007 they are nowhere near what they used to be. Repair bills and fighting for warranty repairs between 07 and 14 finally drove me to purchase Toyotas. I’m very satisfied with a 2008 tundra 5.7 and a 17 Tacoma since 14. Also an 18 Camry. I’ll I’ve had to do is regular maintenance on the Toyotas. They have been absolutely trouble free.My opinion is … GM is cutting corners in the last decade or so and there is a new generation of engineers at the helm that put styling first, not reliability. Just my thoughts.
I agree with you completely! I’ve done the same thing leaving Chevy for Toyota and I have never looked back. Bought a 2016 4Runner with 115k on it and to this day, no mechanical problems at all except maintenance
I am a GM Product Specialist with Riverside Buick GMC Cadillac in Cartersville GA. The Denali Ultimate has been a package for quite some time but with the 2022 Sierra 1500 mid generation body redesign the Denali Ultimate will be introduced as its own Trim Level and will feature Super Cruise as well as many many others and a refreshingly modern redesign on the interior!!! I will be happy to answer any questions you have on any GM Vehicle!!
Is the 3.0 reliable?
The ultimate package has been around for years. I believe since 2016
Lane keep assist on my honda almost drove me into a concrete wall at 50 mph. Turned it off.
Let's take a moment to appreciate that beautiful shop
We have a 21 Yukon Denali ultimate Duramax. The ultimate includes everything include camera mirror, auto running boards, 22" wheels, panoramic sunroof, air suspension, the dual 12" screens on headrests etc.
This should be the next giveaway! You guys would kill this as a build 🔥💪🏿🙏🏿👍🏿
My dad owned a 2012 Yukon Denali with the 6.2 and it was a lemon. My mom owns an 07 denali XL w/ the 6.2 and it still runs like a charm
Love my 2007 Yukon! I've got 240,000 miles on it with no engine or transmission issues at all. Just hit a deer with it on Christmas and my wife wants it fixed because she knows it's irreplaceable.
@@nate7159 does she drive it and im buying it off my mom for my use and its got 180k on it
@@lonestaridiot4159 Yeah my wife drives it a lot and loves it. I wouldn't be scared of 180k miles especially if it's been well taken care of. They're good rigs for sure.
@@nate7159 i like the t900 trucks too
You will appreciate stationary running boards the next time you drive through loose gravel and it protects the side of your truck from chipping. They also tend to freeze up on extreme cold weather locations. And retractable running boards do not let you mount splash guards for the front tires. Better to have than have not!
Thanks that was some useful information.
Would love to see a diy hood stack on the 2021 Yukon 🤣
See how good of a sport she can be vs the mods done to it. I’m sure she’d be a good sport…. To an extent. Haha.
This is the 1st time a actually agreed with the 5 things wrong video. Most ppl sound like they're complaining but you had valid points.
Just going to screw up the glow plugs starter and crankshaft bet gm didn’t think about that 😱
Buy the Auto Stop Eliminator. Makes it so you do not have to keep turning it off as it remembers how you set it. Took less than an hour to install.
I wish some manufacturer would build an 8-lug SUV. There’s a company called DuraBurb that puts an HD Duramax drivetrain into GM SUV, and GM should learn from them.
This dude need the ultimate package if he want 22s, camera mirror and automatic running boards. I love the ultimate package with the illuminated running boards, gmc side mirrors lights, gmc grille light.
There will probably be a harness you can plug into the start/stop to permanently disable it . We have one on our Volkswagen atlas
Jack the pole building is looking fresh! Would love a full tour!!
I work at a dealership and we got a 2022 high county suburban that had the camera in the mirror i thinks it’s just in the options of ur vehicle
I agree with all of these.. Kia did a good job on Lane assist to where you can dodge debree in the road but it'll also assist you in the lane without extreme force
When I was looking at Sierra's back in 2016/2017 I did notice some features for the Denali were add ons. Same thing went for the SLT I ended up buying.... It was something i spent a ton of time making sure I understood before buying... It was a real pain in the ass..
PS... I ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS tell the dealer to take their shit off before i buy it... LOL
Like you said, there’s two types of “Denali”s now. You have the regular Denali, and then the Denali Ultimate. The Denali Ultimate comes with all the things you said, such as the 22’ rims, power running boards and the rear camera mirror. It’s silly that they do that now, but I guess that’s what it’s come to.
Gmc changed the ultimate package to what the call Reserve. Top package with all the options.
Maybe a little more research and a little less impulse buying and selling will result in a better experience?
Should’ve got the illuminated gmc badge
All dome lights are activated by holding the map light. turn on map light by touching it, turn on all by holding it! good luck
I thought this was ThatDudeInBlue for a sec when I saw this thumbnail 😂😂
He really has 3 2021 duramax two gmc one Chevy which is so flipping cool to even say that is so awesome
I have the 3.0 in my Sierra and the auto stop start function stopped working when my “change fuel filter” alert popped up. So, I didn’t reset it after I changed the filter and the auto stop start hasn’t worked since. Thank the LORD!!
I mean, you just bought the cheaper Denali. 🤷 Cheaper rims, fixed steps, etc.
Rear wiper is going to wear prematurely with the window sticker
Omg bro I'm a disabled vet that's been looking for one of these for months now! But just recently I got a 21 yukon xl with the 5.3 as a rental for two weeks, and it made me want a 3.0 one that much more. But man you hit all of these on the money!
The auto headlight highbeams is the same way on the previous gen Denali Sierras with the square headlights, you have to double tap the headlight highbeams to turn on the auto high beam feature.
Hi! Iam Nick a salesman of a small town chevy dealer in Pennsylvania,the reason you don’t have the rear camera mirror is because it only comes in the one advanced trailering packages which is currently on constraint because of the chip shortage
Lolol love how they kept the last part in 🤣
On my 2015 jeep. I on plugged the closed hood scencer. An u don't have to worry about turning the auto start stop.
Definitely have to do the starlight in the Yukon. Bigger turbo…because….turbo
In my 2013 Yukon Denali to turn on all the cabin lights, you have to turn the gauge cluster brightness all the way up and they will turn on with one extra tap of the button.
You can thank the EPA and CARB for all the start stop systems on practically every car/ light truck. They force their hand on every OEM to make it fiscally irresponsible to not have it on a vehicle. Thankfully the EPA still allows OEMs to have the disable switch, I look for that to be removed and for there to be no option to disable start stop in a few models years.
It’s a federal law thanks to Obama. Stupidest law ever.
@Dark farts Lots of new cars do not have the button anymore. ;/
Always majorly life motivational to me..... Salute to everyone grind, Motivations, accomplishments , families , goals.....
Jack at it again! Keep it up man!
Merry Christmas you guys hope it was an awesome day much love from my family to yours.
Can't wait to see DDG22 and winner announcement for DDG21!
Dude ddg22 8 ball or a k2xx denali
I had the prior body Denali. 3” level and super swappers on factory 20s. Then tint. Perfection.
Love the front emblem change !!! Awesome but suttle changes , p.s. despise dealer stickers ,
My parent just got theirs that they ordered. They couldn't get the running boards or the rear mirror camera because of the chip shortage.
Now that makes since. I guess that’s a better option then having a bunch of undeliverable orders.
In comparison to the Expedition, the Denali is similar to the platinum trim, the Reserve is the Limited of GMC
24in black Denali replica wheels. The OEM powered steps. 5% on the windows and 35% on the windshield. Paint correct and ceramic coat the exterior and interior. Other than that I’d leave it alone
I notice your Denali doesn’t have a brake controller either. My 21 Z71 suburban didn’t come with one either because mine didn’t have the “max trailer” group but yet it gives your the 2inch hitch, a 7 way plug and a mode to pre trip your lights
Was forced to go truck shopping when my last one got stolen an found a good priced 19 GMC Denali with 1 owner and low miles that I had to have. Thought I was only sacrificing roof lights but a week later I realized I didn’t have a sunroof or 5th wheel/gooseneck connections either.. I’m one of those people that didn’t realize they came in different packages and figured Denali meant it would just have all the goodies. Wasn’t the case
It’s not GMCs fault you didn’t pick the option with 22” wheels or the power running steps. Both are on the 2022 Premium and Reserve packages.
When Mrs durtymax records you can tell the camera pov is much loeer
Tinting the red on the taillights would look good and corner makers.
Same thing happened to me when I bought my 2021 2500 AT4. Has every bell and whistle possible. Showed my buddy and he liked it so much he went and bout one too. After looking at them side by side, his had no where near the creature comfort features mine had. Needless to say he only had that truck a week then traded it in on a new ford.
Needless to say? Lol usually people don’t trade their brand new truck for a whole other brand of truck in a week lol
So glad the 2500 l8t gasser doesn't have start stop or GM's lovely lifter issues for DOD/AFM.
Merry Christmas to you and your stay safe in the new year
I'm surprised you didn't mention the door mirrors go down when backing up and my wife complained about no grab handle to assist getting in on passenger side a pillar
I've heard of Denali/at4 not coming with rear heated seats due to the chip shortage. Better double check...😄
It took a couple of weeks to get adjusted to the rear view camera, but I love it now
Be honest I just sat in a wagoneer and I am in love with it. Never once said this about any vehicle until now.
I bought my Grand just a few months to early.
To disable the auto stop start you can plug into the cbd port and change the code of the card permanently disabling it
Cbd?
@@jonmiles9133 THC?
@@jonmiles9133 OBD sorry spell check
I meant OBD port Jack and you need a Windows computer or at least I did on my. F150
Front GMC change - amazing.
Cant wait to see that call the 30th about being the winner to the truck 🤤 perfect birthday gift
My mom has a diesel range rover and it has auto stop/start every time you pull up to a stop light it shuts off. I hate that so much
You may have already done this by now but you can purchase an auto stop eliminator to get rid of that terrible auto stop. Also the new 2022s have an option to disable it.
They took away the adjustable pedals too… like wtf. My 17 Yukon had em… just blows my mind
On most GM vehicles to enable or disable your auto lights, you just quickly flash the high beams by pulling the lever back and letting go immediately.
Merry Christmas buddy. I’m sure the first upgrade to power steps, or maybe those starlights🤔🤔 great vid bud happy holidays!
I’ll add a few annoyances from my 2022 Yukon Denali. The windshield wiper controls are crazy small. Find it very hard to actually turn them on.
Also you can’t turn on all the interior dome lights if the switch to turn on the lights when the door opens is pressed. It’s a weird bug. If you hold the interior light to turn on all the lights and the door light switch is on the lights flicker and don’t turn on.
Another one is the off button isn’t sensitive enough. Find myself having to press it two times to actually turn the car off. Never had that issue in any other car but the Yukon ignition button isn’t very responsive.
Lets see the hurricane turn!
As your ready to sign and hand over the cash for the car, tell them the dealer sticker needs to come off.
I have a 21 Silverado 1500 with the 3.0 LM2 Duramax, I can't wait to see what you do with the Yukon!
I highly recommend the S&B Cold Air Intake, love it on mine! You actually get to hear the turbo a little bit.
Get the autostop eliminator it will solve the auto shut-off and start up when coming to a complete stop
Auto on/off is the same deal no matter what brand of car you buy. Yes its a nuisance, but ALL the manufacturers require you to push a button to disable.
Love the beautiful content and merry Christmas
If you would have opted for the Denali Ultimate Package - Includes Advanced Technology Package content, Panoramic power sunroof, Power-retractable assist steps with perimeter lighting, 22" bright machined aluminum wheels with premium paint, Max Trailering Package and Rear Seat Media System. (Includes Air Ride Adaptive suspension on 2WD model and Premium Capability Package with Active Response 4WD on 4WD model.) Congrats on the LM2 Duramax - which is an incredibly fuel efficent and powerful engine. Excellent choice!
But only a brown interior available
I like that flooring. Looks neat.
Around 1:30 the doge getting camera time lol 😂
Couldn't agree more man. I've been looking for the wife (for the same truck) myself. The one thing that drives me nuts the most, is that all the Denali's don't come with the power steps.
That’s probably one of the additional options you can pay for. Can’t give anyone anything for “free”.
@@brentcoleman9075 yes it is an option. My point is at that trim level it should come with them. My AT4 HD, same thing. I had to add amp steps and thats a 90k truck
The Low clearness where the independent Suspinsion is too low the truck. And the rear truck cargo door it’s like pointy
Merry Christmas and that's a beautiful gmc!!
To turn on all the cabin/dome lights u push and hold one of the lights and they’ll turn on and to turn off you do the same thing! But will only work on the front ones
yeah, my dad actually got my mom a yukon denali, with the 6.2, but its got the power running boards, bigger rims, just not the 3.0 duramax, because well, my mom likes the power
Where can I get the enthuzst license plate?
Jack auto stop/start is a federal mandate for light duty cars and trucks. GM couldn’t have a setting for it to stay off if they wanted
With the extremely high cost of these vehicles, why are the manufactures not making the emblems light up at night?
That blacked GMC badge looks super clean and the it’s needs smoked tail lights and black wheels and Merry Christmas guys and Happy New Year
Im with her.... I don't like advertising for free where ever I bought my vehicle from... I always romove them... but it looks great otherwise!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!
This blows my mind that you have to enable auto high beams everytime you get in one unlike Ford and dodge where u set it once and forget about it
@9:28 Reason i can see it doesn't is for parents that have kids and use that mirror a lot to keep on eye on them.
theyre a company that offers a plug n play called auto stop eliminator that has it where everytime you get in the vehcle you dont have to keep presssing the button
Lane assist is awesome in the highway. My ole lady says she doesn’t use it at all around town. Also perks of using the same salesmen’s my whole life. He knows not to put the dealer sticker on. I’ll rock the license frame for him though.
Actually you can turn auto stop/start off in the radio if im not mistaken used to work at my local gmc dealership and turned that function off for a customer on a 2020 model yukon
You should try the auto stop eliminator to get rid of the auto stop start.
Nicest vehicle I've ever had is my recently purchased 2021 Sierra 1500 gas burner. That auto start/stop kills me. First button I hit when I get in.
