The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
8.4
7.8
TCC’s Bottom Line
There's not a better-looking Chevrolet Tahoe than the 2008 GMC Yukon Denali. Competitors to the 2009 Nissan Armada offer roomier interiors and better options, but the Armada should be commended for its handsome looks and powerful V-8 engine.
