    Here is my 50k miles later review 🙂 czcams.com/video/X9PMRL9Niu8/video.htmlsi=7A-uK5hjqnROh8XI

    When a big guy like you could sit in the third-row seat comfortably like you did. That sealed it for me. I have a son that is just over 6 foot. I want a vehicle to take my whole family and my son's and daughter's friends on road trips. I only have a few years before they finish with college and start their own families. Then I can use it to drive my grandkids around. The cargo space looks like it can handle just about anything. Thanks for taking the time to do a review on a longer period of ownership!

    Great video, Kevin . . it's so refreshing to watch one of these ( and I've probably watch 30 different CZcams videos on the Yukon Denali ) by an owner who "tells it like it is" and after two years - YOU know it !!! I hope to buy one this year ( as long as my IRA goes back up ) and your video helped me to "know" what it's like to own and drive it. THANKS for taking the time.

      Yes I have a 22 SLT and some options were missing to be installed at a later date....most have been resolved. Love the vehicle and so fortunate to be able to afford one. Prices have gone up since our purchase. Ordered in Mar. of 22 and and it arrived in Jun of 22. Just the other day 4/20/23 we received a $ 1400 check from dealer, called them and they said it was price protection from when we ordered to when we took delivery. I was blown away to say the least. I just wish ours had adaptive cruise, it was not available on SLT at the time we ordered. But we love it crazy big and crazy comfortable.

    Hey Everyone! few things I forgot to mention
    • Never had any real problems in 28,843 miles, just did the usual tire rotation, oil change etc
    • Engine was making a weird high pitch noise at around 25,000 miles but the dealer took care of it under warranty and haven’t had a problem since
    • The vehicle does feature Apple Car Play and Android Auto
    • I have the moving center console but because we very rarely use it I completely forgot about it for this review, so if you’re looking to get this vehicle keep in mind you might even forget that option is there so maybe save a few bucks and skip it
    Sorry about the audio quality, my mic broke and had to use my iPhone and redo all the recording I did over again. Didn’t wanna wait “till I got a new mic” cause then this video would just get pushed back again

    So how has it held up if you still own it? Im looking to upgrade from my 2015 XL Denali to a newer 2022. I've kept up on basic maintenance and haven't had any issues. Even drove it completely across the US towing my wifes car. Are the 2022s as reliable?

    • @KevinGannets
      @KevinGannets  Před 5 měsíci

      I have the 2021 still and am gonna see what the situation is on Financing my current lease. I haven’t had any major problems it’s been super reliable I have almost 50k miles on it currently and the only real issue i’ve had was the battery failing out of the blue (literally one day was fine than the next the auto start started having issues, car was having a hard time starting up, radio was wonky etc) once I replaced the battery at the dealership the car has been working flawlessly ever since (this was about 2 months ago. I guess the battery being 3 years old in Floridas weather/humidity was the cause? that’s what a few of my friends said was possible)
      Would totally recommend the 2022 if it’s the same as my 2021 because this thing has been fantastic! so much in fact i’m thinking of buying her out because a new one is like $120,000 lmao

      The dealer may have labeled it as an ultimate package compared to others (not knowing that a branded "Ultimate" trim level was coming out in 2 years), but it is not the actual Ultimate trim package. If you went to trade it in today, there isn't a dealer in the country that would label yours as an "Ultimate" model.
