Overview & Reviews
The GMC Yukon XL has been completely overhauled for 2007. The most notable changes are an even more spacious cabin with upgraded materials, more powerful V8s, available power-folding second-row seats and head curtain airbags.
- Attractive interior with quality materials, powerful 6.2-liter V8 engine in Denali, smooth road manners, relatively tight turning circle, seating for up to nine passengers.
- No folding third-row seat, 5.3-liter V8 tires a bit under heavy loads, hefty curb weight dulls handling.

2007 Denali XL - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By Jay - April 26 - 5:20 amIncredibly smooth ride for a vehicle of this size in and around city. Handles with great ease, acceleration is smooth and corners very well. Inside of vehicle is done tatefully with easy access to navigation and audio controls. Captains seats in second row are very comfortable and leave an access to third row for kids from middle without having to remove the second rows every time you have to get off. It also makes the inside feel very open and roomy.

Leary - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By EastWALady - September 4 - 3:06 amWe bought our 07 new with just 57 miles on it, in feb 2008. At 26,000 miles we now have the oil issue. Not sure if its burning oil, dripping oil or what. The dealership is doing the consumption testing and I have told them if I loose my engine and Im under my 100,000 warranty, their not going to like me. Family really likes the rig and enjoys rides in it. Great for shopping or vacation trips. Looking at upgrading to a 2010 or 2011 Yukon xl. I had the dealer remove his decals, why should they get free advertising from me? Of course the salesman hesitated, but when I told him I would charge them a month to advertise, decals came off.

Loving It! - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By MelissaP. - March 27 - 10:00 amI traded in my 2001 Acura MDX for this and love it! I have 3 kids in car seats plus a husband who is 64" and it gives us plenty of room on long trips. DVD player is awesome, so easy to use while driving. I have a leather interior and seats are very comfortable. I get 16.2 mpg average and i live in a rural area with lots of hills. The things that I am disappointed with was that there is no place for sunglasses like in older models...something simple but it matters. Interior door handles are really cheap chrome and you can see the seam in them which someone else had mentioned in a review. Overall super happy with my rig. First American car, have owned VW, Audi and Acura.

My 6th Yukon XL - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By Michelle - March 14 - 10:53 amI have always driven Suburbans and I love them, but if this would have been the 1st one I ever owned I would never buy another one again. I have had nothing but trouble with it since Ive owned it. At 13k my transmission went out and I had to be towed in and 19k the alternator went out. Transmission is acting up again and every once in a while it will say add oil to engine and they can not find a leak anywhere. Dealer had done my oil changes to make sure it is being done the correct way and it will still loose 2 quarts of oil. I am getting ready to trade it off and yes I am going to get another Yukon XL because I do love my GMCs but it will not be the 2007 model.

2007 Denali XL Problems - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By aedmundson - November 6 - 12:53 amI love my 2007 Denali XL but I have had major issues with it. Guages will quit working while driving, tells me to services suspension system, airbags, and tire pressure. Radio will not work, air condition freezes, windows wont roll down. Service dept has failed to fix it or find the problem. It has been in the shop 3 times. Also had leak in the rear damaged carpet and roof liner. Love the truck. I have been driving Denalis since 2000. I get a new one every year. Huge improvement from 06.

Nice Engine! - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By Pinchme - August 11 - 10:10 pmJust traded our 06 Denali in for the 07, loved the new body style just couldnt afford it in 07. We had few problems with the 06 so had no reservations about buying another one. The 07 is great (havent had it long)...the engine is even more powerful than previous one...and I raved about that one. The passing gear is amazing. Exhaust bellow is music to my ears. Domestic build quality always leaves something to be desired when compared to imports...but thats always the case. Fuel eco is great considering the near 400 hp engine and massive vehicle size, its better than my Nissan Titan. If your looking for a serious people mover I would highly recommend looking at these.

2007s are using oil! Dont buy one! - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By 2007GMCYukon - July 11 - 4:53 amI love my Yukon before 40,000 miles. Since then it has been nothing but trouble. It began using oil and has only gotten worse. I have taken it to our Local GMC/Chevy Dealer every 3000 miles since for oil consumption tests, replacing heads, lifters, engine cleaning, to only prolong the problem but definitely not repair it. I have found at least 3-4 other people in my small town who are having the exact same issue. When I go to the dealer now they ask "Now which was is this, what all have we tried on it?" Why doesnt GMC just bite the bullet and replace the motor? I am now at 70,000miles! I guess they are trying to wait until the 100,000 mile warranty expires! Dont but one!

2007 Yukon XL Denali - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By JM - December 24 - 1:56 amUpgraded from a 2003 Envoy XL. Love the Denali model. Big truck, the 6.2l engine has a nice rumble to it. MPG is as you would think, about 12mpg. But hey, if you wanted 40mpg, go buy a Honda.

Fun Ride - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By F. Belknap - September 18 - 7:30 pmThis truck is great. I have 3 kids, a husband and a German Shepard and it fits all with great comfort. The extra space in the rear is great for the travel luggage of 5 people.

Best full size SUV - 2007 GMC Yukon XL
By Thai Quach - August 17 - 12:10 amExcellent SUV for price/size/features. I am totally satisfied with the ride, handling and power. My wife and kids loves it. I think its mileage is better when compared to other SUVs at the same size.
