What Owners are Saying About the 2003 GMC Yukon XL 1500

"This 2002 is the best suv I've ever owned"

"My 2002 Yukon Denali is a great vehicle to have this vehicle has been turn key for me every day since I got it quality of the vehicle is great and with 219,000 on it you cannot tell by the way it runs I'm thinking this vehicle will last well over 300,000 and keep going for an all wheel drive vehicle and I will save my $70,000 in my pocket on getting new one."

"LOVE MY TRUCK ! Dependable & Comfortable"

"I had my Yukon built to my specs from the dealer. Of course, it arrived perfectly. This ride is smooth and it handles perfectly, not like a clunky pick-up truck. I am a gigging technician and would nap in the back between gigs. I could live in the thing, its so spacious. I removed one of the 3rd row seats and its roomy for a massive load of groceries and work tools... or children/people, lol. The interior is still perfect, Interior has been covered and protected... perfection, still, at 115K miles. I replaced the cd player, but thats ok, I use mine a lot. I cant say anything bad about my SUV. She gets me there, in comfort for the past 13 years, and is still absolutely reliable and runs perfectly. General Motors is a sure win."

"Best Car We've Ever Owned"

"This car was amazing. We bought ours new in 2005 and probably would have kept it forever if we weren't involved in an accident. If you need an SUV, look no further than the GMC Yukon. All of the convenience and luxury packages are just nice (for example; Sunroof, Towing Package, Leather, Bose, Navigation, Bluetooth - just to name a few). The car has never broken down or had any problems whatsoever. This doesn't drive like other SUV's; The steering is responsive and the engine is very powerful. Despite the weight, you'll accelerate pretty quickly thanks to this monster 5.3l V8. The gas mileage is actually pretty good considering this is an SUV, but it's still costly. The interior is absolutely massive and was thought through very well. The exterior is strong and is a lot nicer than the Tahoe. Whether you need this car for kids, towing, work, whatever, this is the best SUV that you'll find."
