This Year's Model Updates:

The GMC Yukon XL has a few additional features for 2006. OnStar, a tire-pressure monitor and stability control are now standard on all trim levels. Steering wheel-mounted audio controls are new this year, and the optional towing/camping exterior mirrors have been revised. Lastly, the interesting but expensive Quadrasteer four-wheel steering system has been dropped for 2006.

Pros:
  • Huge interior with class-leading cargo space, strong lineup of V8 engines, extensive list of optional features, seats up to nine.

    Have owned since new. After almost 3 years of ownership. I have not had it in the shop at all. I have the fully loaded SLT model, except for the sun roof and really enjoy it. The 4WD works great in the snow and I get a constant 17.2 mpg. Perfect for my family.

    I bought this 2006 GMC Denali back in September as a Certifed GMC. So far everything has been great no complaints. I have to disagree on what people have say about the gas. You dont buy a 5000 pound car for fuel economy. I avg 14.8 around town and 19.7 hwy. Love my car! Will buy another one

    Great design.This is the third Yukon. 1995,2001 and now a 2006. This one has been extremely disappointing. Had to rebuild the transmission at 58000 miles. The truck hauls kids and groceries. Dealer actually charged me $100 to tell me the transmission was broken. I dont understand why the company doesnt stand behind the truck. Cost $2,500 to repair. Would not purchase another one because of my experience.

    New tranny at 71,000. Now offers a 5 year/100k warranty for all cars 2007 & newer. Did not help me and my $2000 bill. My tranny guy told me last year that these trucks only last till 70,000. He was off by 1k. Merry Christmas. Thanks GMC!
