2019 GMC Yukon XL SLT Standard Edition

The Yukon XL is GMC's biggest SUV, the long-wheelbase version of the Yukon that seats up to nine and swallows gear behind the third row. It drives like a big truck, with a commanding view and a ride that's more about comfort than sport, which suits its role as a family hauler. The cabin is roomy and quiet, with a huge cargo area behind the third row that makes it a practical choice for large families or road trips. Yukon XLs have a solid reputation for durability, though they're known for thirstier fuel use and some electrical gremlins as they age. The SLT Standard Edition adds leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a power liftgate over the SLE, while skipping some of the SLT's optional upgrades. Its 5.3L V8 makes 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, enough to tow a boat or trailer without breaking a sweat. Expect fuel economy around 16 mpg combined, which is typical for a full-size SUV this size and weight.
