2013 GMC Yukon Denali

The 2013 Yukon is GMC's full-size SUV, the one you cross-shop with the Tahoe and Expedition when you need three rows and serious towing. It drives with a sturdy, planted feel, and the big mirrors keep blind spots small, which owners say makes it easier to manage than you'd expect. Inside, you get comfortable seating for up to eight, but cargo space shrinks quickly once the third row is up, so plan for that. Reliability is generally good, though some owners mention cracked dashboards and door handles that break, so give those a look. The Denali is the luxury pick of the Yukon lineup, with a more powerful V8 and extra standard equipment over the SLT.
