Ya it was a nice truck, just didnt have a need for the Diesel anymore since we sold the camper. The new truck gives me a better tax right off (self employed) and payments stayed the same. The taxes hurt though plus got the wifes as well.

Going to miss it some but love the new Yukon

Incase you cant tell I got a thing for black LOL

Damn...the gas for that yukon would break me with my daily commute to work (75 mi round trip). I have an F-150 and the gas mileage is awful. Hate to admit it, but I drive my wife's Prius sometimes to enjoy the 50 mpg.

I did a short test and it looks like it will get 20-21 on the highway (better than the Diesel).

Headed to KC this weekend to see the Steelers play so will get a good MPG test.

Very nice!

Love that Ford you had but those Tahoe's are NICE! Great ride and lots of room.


My commute is 40 miles as well, and I had to give up my Crew Cab truck last summer when prices came back up a little after the 4 dollar plus a gallon and get a Camry for the mileage. My fuel bill was over $500 a month trying to drive my truck...

GMC cars are nice cars. GMC trucks are nice cars, too.

Nice rides.
I'd consider just doing a powder coat on those stock wheels on the bike.
If you've never stopped in a powder coaters shop do it, you will be amazed at the options they have.
Could add some bling to the wheels for $100 or so??

I hear you. Cancelled my winter mods after picking up an 1125CR during the Buell blowout and getting my winter layoff about 2 months early.
