2016 Yukon Denali.

‘Merica.

Initial impressions, looks comfier than it is. The ride quality is fine but the seats are suuuuuper firm. Returns a solid 11mpg despite cylinder deactivation tech.

If you regularly need to take 6 adults to the airport with luggage, in a snowstorm, while towing a boat, this is the perfect vehicle for you.

Doesn’t get more American than that. How does it drive? Just like a pickup truck?

But do you really need the extra space in the back? Seen a few XL models rolling around.

My dad used to own a Suburban and his business partner had a Tahoe. The Tahoe trunk seemed pretty small compared to the Suburban. I think you had to fold the rear seat down in the Tahoe to fit anything too big.

Having driven both I don’t think the extra length of the Suburban has any ill effects, if you’re going to drive something that big you might as well go all out and not make compromises on storage space.

Is it going to be worth about as much as a gently used pressure washer when fuel goes back up?

Is it true that Smart cars get caught it its gravitational field and begin orbiting it?

Underwhelming, to be honest. Feels like a silverado in drag

Exactly. Good old 6.2 does what it says on the tin. Would be awesome for road trips if you could afford the fuel cost!

Oh no doubt. Although this is around $70-80k as configured, so I doubt that the target audience for this car new are going to be that dissuaded.

They make excellent chocks for parking it.

If you need to transport a bunch of secret service agents with all their guns and stuff, sure. Most of the time I’ve been in it on my own so 90% of the space isnt used.

Christ that's a lot for a GM truck based SUV.
