$80,000.00!!!!!! Insane price. Wait 36 months and pick it up at CarMax for $40,000.00
Man I want one of these so bad it looks much better than my 2003
Since the 2016's are out, you can get a used 2015 with very low miles for around 65k. And if you wait just a little longer, say 6 more months, you'll be able to find some for under 60k. Good things come for those who wait. Good luck and great review. I liked the seriousness and professionalism of the little girl.
haha your daughter is funny!! "sitting low like im in a cave" lol
Steve well done as usual. Love incorporating you daughter. She did great.
Thanks! She's my consultant.
I like when kids review cars it seems more honest
All that room and the 3rd row is still tight? Makes no sense.
Your daughter is adorable. Move over Steve, I think you've got some competition! Haha
Steve is always the best keep it up
Thanks!
Love the flex-a-bility the live axle offers for off road situations, as I am a Jeep guy, but I also love that "truck part" about this vehicle. I am going to purchase XL, it suites my needs. As always Steve, your the best.....thanks
Great review Steve! Beautiful truck with a hefty price tag. Perhaps the reason for the trucky qualities may be GM's attempt to keep the Yukon Denali more differentiated from the Escalade. I definitely agree that this SUV needs a few more wow-features like electronic aids and a bit more of an upscale interior for this price.
Merry Christmas from Ottawa, Ontario!
All fun and games. ( does it come in Bulletproof Windows ? )
This SUV in the video makes me grin from ear to ear. Maybe I like this.
Great job Steve. Great to meet the family. Happy holidays for all.
Merry Christmas!
I love the kid! So cute and adorable!
Dad bought one but only wanted the denali since the denali since it comes with a 6.2
For such a large SUV, the exterior is very stylish.
Must say the color is not what I'd choose, but I'm liking this. As always, your reviews are thoroughly enjoyable and thoroughly informative!!
Oh goodness, I just realized that I really, really, like the front-end of this car. Here's to hoping I don't end up lugging 31 gallons of petrol in the future. :|
Wow, what an amazing looking SUV. GM has done a great job with the outside styling, interior over previous generation and utility. This would be great for family hauling or towing who seek such uses, but the MPG is one area that will always hurt these full size SUVs.
GM rules in this segment, but after owning a 2003 GMC Envoy XL SLT2, with plenty of low quality materials, poor customer care and mechanical/safety issues my family swore never to own another GM vehicle. We will only stick with Japanese automakers, which is a shame as the new generation of GMs cousins have a lot to offer.
Is there an improvement in fuel economy in the 6.2L V-8 with the 8-speed auto? (It was 14 city/20 highway when this was recorded)
Anyone else noticing the issue with the LED tail lights? We've got that fixed...!
I know there are no plans for it, but this would make a great candidate for the duramax
Great job, Madison. You're a good helper.
Great review, but unfortunately I don't have that money, so it's either suburban, tahoe, minivan or the Explorer.
Expedition not explorer
They are cheaper here in Texas 67,000
Joe Collazo so sad maybe you'll be able to afford it one day. Meanwhile, I just received my Denali yesterday
I love your reviews Steve!
Too pricy. You better get an Escalad with more premium interior. But I hate the rectangle side design of the Tahoe, Yukon and Escalad.
I like big cars as I have since the 80's but don't like big TVs as others do.
Awesome video as usual Steve!
Glad you liked it. It was way too cold to be outside.
While the price is high there is no need to bash it.... Long story short if you don't like it don't buy it.... And for those who say its a P.O.S I will bet that the Audi you buy will crap out before this will, hell they are plenty of these around (older ones) with well over 200k on them with no problems!
In JD Power's most recent dependability study GMC outpaced the industry average while Audi finished below.
TestDriveNow.com featuring Drive Time with Steve Hammes By the way Steve I enjoyed your video like always...You do good work keep it up! Happy Holiday from Rockingham, North Carolina.

Steve, i think you'll find that Consumer Reports places Audi higher than GM for the past 2 or 3 yrs now. Not trying to be argumentative, simply adding another perspective. This year I think only Lexus topped it.
I agree that Audi doesn't have anything this big though. Loved the review, keep up the great work.
The only major issues I have with all GM makes and models they make them the look the same inside so why not buy a cheaper suburban or Tahoe cause you're buying the same looking and drivetrain car. My personal opinion
wish they would get rid of the column shifter
and replace it with what? Column Shifters are the way to go
Replace it with an (optional) bench seat.
This thing is huge!!
we can choose all new expedition or sequoia
can i buy this in indonesia, or is it available? because as far as i know i never saw/found gmc dealer in indonesia
ilham Defra why would you Buy this Gargantuan of a Car. where most of Southeast Asia has..
1. Small Highways Mostly 4 lanes.
2. Small Service/City Roads mostly 2 lanes specially in country side.
3. Lots of Smaller Cars competing for right to go first on a 2-way road.
4. Lots of undesirable Drivers mostly teenagers in a Custom Underbone Bikes with no Helmets. who thinks every road is a racetracks.
Not to mention that this Monster SUV
1. Is a Gas Eater where gasoline in most SouthEast Asia can reach to almost a Dollar per litre
2. This Car Sips Gasoline like more than 4Litre for every 24Kilometers and has a Fuel Capacity of 117.348litre on full
Tank, which i'm sure doesn't run on a Regular type of Gas.. which is OK if you owned a Gasoline Station and not worry much about fuel
But it's just a personal opinion..maybe your a
-Very Filthy Rich Dude
-A Corrupt (I mean Good) Govt. official
-Or a Son of a very rich Dude who just wants to be branded as an Attention whore by anyone on the Indonesian Road
No racist intention or jealousy on my side.. so please don't be angry.. just an opinion.. peace...
actually i just dreaming if someday i can buy this, lol :v but seriously, i dont undertsand how a car brand that doesnt have dealer in a country can be delivered, is it use alternative other gm brand dealer like chevy (because im sure chevy is everywhere) or how?
ilham Defra I'm sure there is a Car Dealer in your Country who specialized on Importing Cars by Personal orders.. or you can buy it yourself and ship it to your Country problem is you will pay triple of the value of the Car shipping plus TAX and "under the table" payments for the people working in Custom Sector of your Country..
$77k huh? How about $55000. It's not worth a cent more than that and that's being generous.
Show me a lux SUV as loaded as this one for around the same amount of money
At least one of the GM SUVs, Tahoe, Yukon or Escalade should've had an independent rear suspension or all of them...maybe best suited for a Yukon and Escalade.
Couldn't agree more!
$75k plus vehicle and no independent rear suspension. How Detroit like!
Any different from the 2017?
This car's huge!
Everyone is commenting about the high price tag, okay sure 75K+ is expensive for a GMC but go German and you will be in an even higher price bracket. This isn't the 90s anymore American vehicles have come along way but some people will always be brainwashed to think foreign vehicles are superior.
Price wise, I think spending an extra $3000 and getting an Escalade would be a no brainer.
hello from Romania :) How much cost?
pretty yukon xl
Nice SUV
I. Love. It
that girl was paid.shes going to expose him she was paid
No remote start?
Remote start is standard.
What color is that
Midnight Amethyst Metallic.
"Makes the Toyota Sequoia look like a mid size!" Is that a joke? I'm 6'1" and 240 lbs and I can sit in the 3rd row comfortably in the Sequoia. This Yukon "XL" has more room in the trunk but for no reason. Why keep that much trunk space and take away from the 3rd row leg room?? GM you almost sold me until I found out how little room there is in the 3rd row..
Gabe Sahakyan I agree with you. I was about to type exact same thing. I'm 6'4 and can sit in the 3rd row of the Sequoia. All of that cargo room is retarded unless you're family is 5'10 and under. This suv looks long as hell, but has no legroom. I'm highly considering a newer QX56.
escalade or denali
Hi
ouch i can see those electronic powered seats getting messed up specially if you have young children playing with it over and over or wearing out overtime. I'd still prefer the manuals
Nice girl )))
And it's a fantastic vehicle!!
You look weird when you put down the DVDs screen !
Kenneth Raygoza You look weird when you troll.
Steve,
Just purchased a 2015 GMC Yukon XL SLE. has leather and 4x4. Not as plush as the Denali featured here, Yet I must say I'm VERY unhappy with the cabin noise and vibrations. The most concerning being the buffeting, like vibration that can be felt inside the cabin. According to many of those affected, the sensation gets worse when the vehicle switches into V4 mode. Look into any GM forums, and you'll find them flooded with the same complaints. Thoughts?? Experiences?? I know car sales and profits are the bottom line, but how can this issue continue to be ignored.

+Jay Culbreath Jay, I'm really sorry to hear about your issues. I wish I knew what to say. This is the first I've heard of it and if you know me, If I experienced anything like what you're describing I would've said so. Unfortunately, I get an alarming number of such comments about all kinds of vehicles where there's a very specific issue affecting a small number of vehicles and I empathize with them. It would drive me nuts if I bought a new car and it had a nagging, seemingly unsolvable problem. Hopefully, the squeaky wheel gets the grease here. Good luck.
same thing happens with my 2014 accord v6 touring. it goes into 3 cylinder mode and there is a low frequency vibration that you can hear. side effect of getting better mpg.
ням-ням!
space ship on wheels.
another garbage mobile from GM. Great family btw Steve. $77k? for this? Audi Q7 anyday.
For some, there'll be no substitute for its size. The Q7 is much smaller. Thanks!
I agree that interior looks cheap for its price tag. Also no sunroof at that price standard? Cmon!!! GMs electronics like power rear seats and running boards will probably break too. GM quality sucks
It does have a sunroof but the plastics/wood are not To spec for that price.
Also the title say( review by auto critic Steve hammes and I bet you anything you just make these video and claim you are a auto critic … you haven't probably gotten a ward to be a auto critic
Kenneth Raygoza Well, you're right about 2 things: I do make these videos and I have never won an award for them ;-) Would you like to give me one?
I’d rather get a Ford Expedition Max tbh
Costs about 80 grand and doesn't even have high beam assist. Pathetic.
