This Year's Model Updates:

For 2004, the Yukon features the addition of a tire-pressure monitoring system and newly styled optional 17-inch wheels. A chrome exhaust tip is now standard and the trailering package includes a seven-to-four-pin adapter and electric brake wiring harness. For added safety, the Yukon now features Hydroboost brakes, and there is a front passenger seatbelt reminder. The antenna for the optional XM Satellite Radio is smaller this year, and the rear-seat entertainment system can now be combined with a sunroof. Lastly, the passenger-side exterior door lock has been eliminated.

Pros:
  • Strong engines, roomy and versatile interior, rugged chassis, numerous available amenities.
Cons:
  • Spotty build quality, interior materials could be better.

  • Great Truck - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    This is probably the finest vehicle I have ever bought. The style, feel, and handeling are terrific.

  • Great SUV - 2004 GMC Yukon

    I love this vehicle. I know someone who has a Denali. I fell in love with his Denali and had to have one for myself. Even though I cannot afford a Denali I love what I have. Handles great and is very comfortable to drive. I put over 3200 miles on my in a month and a half.

  • Excellent vehicle - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    With the introduction of kids into my life, I knew I needed my wife and I needed a bigger vehicle. We werent ready to concede to a minivan yet, and the Yukon turned out to be a great choice. We actually got one on the road cheaper than a Tahoe, which at the outset I didnt think would be possible. The ride is great, it is very roomy, and the big V8 pulls the vehicle along well. The only minus is gas mileage, but if you are worried about that, you shouldnt be looking at an SUV anyway.

    While looking for a full size SUV--I looked at lots of models. GMCs Yukon not only turned my head, but made me a True Believer. First off, a great looking truck, and in Black, it looks fast standing still. The 4.8 has tons of low end, so quick pullouts into traffic are a breeze. The DVD-Sunroof package is the best invention for long road trips yet. The ability to plug in the XBox makes this entertainment center a winner (the rest of the car can listen to the audio of the DVD, or not--Nice feature).

  • Great GMC! - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    This Yukon has been the best vehicle I have ever owned in terms of functionality and reliability. This is my first vehicle with a DVD system and it has been wonderful. The kids love it! The vehicle has had only one problem (clunk in steering column) which was quickly repaired with some lubricant. The engine and drivetrain are smooth and provide enough power to pull our snowmobiles and camping trailer. The tow/haul mode makes it easy to ensure you are in the correct gear for towing. The seats are easy to configure/remove and it has cup holders that actually work. The turning radius is excellent and parking in tight spaces is no problem. Great SUV.

  • Great Ride - 2004 GMC Yukon

    Great combination of Luxury ride and SUV practicality. Didnt plan on getting the stylish Denali, but couldnt leave it on the lot. Gets a lot of looks from others. Nice interior. Well worth the money.

  • my new GMC - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    Thus far, I have been completely satisfied with the performance of my new GMC Yukon XL. Although the gas mileage is a little less than I anticipated, I drive mostly city driving and it isnt off the charts bad. My kids love the space and we have really liked the fact that it is so quiet inside. As a Volvo and Merceds owner, I am used to automobiles that exceed expectations and this one has done just that. If this is what American cards are like now a days... I may rethink my next auto purchase to an American manufactured car.

  • Traded 4.8L Yukon for Denali - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    Denali is a lot more responsive than the other Yukons and actually drives better. The 17" Wheels and extra 500lbs in weight gives better separation from the road. The regular Yukes makes a popping sound when steering hard but not with the Denali.

  • 2004 GMC Yukon Denali(shorty) Red/Tan - 2004 GMC Yukon
    By -

    Ive driven EVERY SUV ever. I bought this vehicle because it is in my opinion the best overall combo for Power, Comfort, Ride Quality, Size, Price and Looks, in that order. It tows a 6000+ lb boat with ease, even when I forget to press the trailer tow button. The bad things, in order again are build quality, handling (turns), and repairs.Warranty repair:Steering gearbox(was squeeky) Mine has a faint rattle/vibration/resonation noise coming from somewhere in the driveline at around 23 MPH and 42 MPH. I will let the dealer attempt repair 2 more times, then go to www.lemon law.com
