SEE LOCAL CLASSIFIEDS
Like the Chevy Tahoe it shares a platform with, GMC's full-size SUVs were completely revised for the 2007 model year; they continue into 2008 with minor changes.

The standardYukon rides on a new 116-inch wheelbase, with an overall length of 202 inches. Extended-wheelbase Yukon XL (and Denali XL) models have exterior dimensions similar to the regular models, but are about 14 inches longer in wheelbase and 20 inches longer in overall length.

 

Both Yukon and Yukon XL are available in SLE (cloth trim) and SLT trim (leather appointments), in either rear- or four-wheel-drive configurations. A third-row seat is standard on Yukon XL models and available on Yukon .

 

Denali models share basic specifications but come standard with more luxury features, as well as a standard 6.2-liter, 380-horsepower V-8 engine and six-speed automatic transmission. Regular Yukons offer standard 4.8-liter (295 horsepower), 5.3-liter (310 or 320 horsepower), and 6.0-liter (366 horsepower) V-8s with four-speed automatic transmissions. E85/flex-fuel capability is offered with the 5.3-liter V-8 engine. Yukon XL models get a new six-speed automatic transmission.

 

Traction and stability control are standard on all Yukon models; for 2008, all versions get curtain airbags as standard equipment. Base SLE models get a new split front bench seat. Denali models will get rear-drive versions later in the model year.

 

A new GMC Yukon Hybrid model will be previewed separately at TheCarConnection.com.

Why should I also consider these? X

If you need a rugged and supremely capable full-size SUV, the 2008 GMC Yukon should be on your list.

The big GMC offers a wider choice of engines than the Ford Expedition, and the differences in performance are notable.

However, the Ford performs well, and TheCarConnection.com's editors appreciate its comparatively more responsive handling.
