      What a nitpicking *hater.* The $100k quality may not apply to the protective thin plastic coverings for buttons in the cargo compartment to be constantly rubbed, bumped, and hit by cargo. I suppose the covering should have been made out of stainless steel and GMC charge $190,000 like the Germans. Oh wait, they use flimsy plastic in the rear too.🙄

    This is the best review I have ever seen so thank you! You are the ONLY person to speak the truth about the ride of this Ultimate. I was just about to purchase this SUV. (I currently have a 2018 Yukon Denali XL. I have been driving the same SUV for 22 years.. every 3 yrs buying a new one fully loaded.) I took the Ultimate for a test drive and was like Whaat?? I so wanted to love it. It felt so wobbly and clumsy. No tightness hugging the gentle curves of the road. All of the other reviews just raved about the car and I was like why am I not feeling that?? I felt like they were paid advertisers. You are the only person who speaks about the wobbly feeling of the drive, I noticed it right away on my test drive. It also felt bigger and more boxy.. clearly a result of the design bc the dimensions are the same. Even if you could get past that, surprisingly the Bose sound system is horrible. Sounds like literal tin. Not clear or robust at all, not equally distributed no matter how you play with the balance, treble, bass, etc.... and I am not an audiophile, just a mom with 3 college aged kids who does a ton of driving ( approx 1,000 miles of highway driving per week.) I think with the extra speakers in the Ultimate the sound is too diffused.. but again I am not an expert, I just love listening to music when I take long road trips. Thank you for your incredible review and for being honest! It was great to feel validated. I am keeping my 2018 Denali XL even though it has 163,000 miles. Even the interior is better in mine than the regular XL. I have leather wrapped everywhere.. the dashboard, the side panels... beautiful wood trim.. not the black and white fake plastic looking zebra print in the new XL's. I don't understand why someone would pay almost 100 K and have cheap looking black and white faux wood in the regular XL's? I guess GM is trying to save money with all of the new technology but they should reconsider the materials they use in the interior. Finally, I agree with your review of the Ultimate's infotainment system. It's easy in some ways and complicated in other ways that don't make sense. Yours is the only review people should watch... the most beautiful camera work and scenery as well to boot!

    Great review, Ryan. Did you notice the lower arms of the rear suspension hang only about 6 inches above the road? It rides great but it looks like someone unbolted the rear suspension. I’ve seen videos where rocks get stuck under the lower arms because they hang so low. Poor poor design choice from usability/aesthetics pov, i get that this generation independent suspension freed up a ton of cabin space.

    Anyone considering a GM vehicle understand this. GM is quickly trying to phase out Android auto and Apple CarPlay in favor of their own software interface and services. You won't have an option to "opt" out of them selling your info. Not to mention we are talking about a car company trying to compete with long time software companies who make updates and enhancements a regular service. Good luck living with GM's system once you are locked in after the sale. Car companies are notorious for few and far between updates and bug fixes.

    I love your reviews. They are really thorough and informative. I want to ask a serious question. Why do manufacturers list these crazy tow weights for vehicles these days? Yes, of course the powertrain and frame of the vehicle can successfully tow the listed weight under perfect conditions, but if you want to be safe then you should never tow more than the curb weight of the vehicle for long distances. This Denali is somewhere around 7,200 lbs curb weight and they list a tow weight of 8,200 lbs. If an 8,000 lb trailer starts to shimmy at highway speeds and your vehicle is only weighing in around 7,200 lbs then that is going to end very badly for the driver and perhaps others around them on the road. This is combined with the fact that I rarely see people towing decent sized trailers on the highway at less than 100kmh.

    • @drivingsports

      Not unusual. Trailer brakes keep the trailer from shimmying.

How do you think this with real snow tires would drive during snowstorms, on snow and ice, compared to say an F150 Tremor or Raptor pick up with either three peak severe winter rated All Terrains or also with real snow tires? Other than the road clearance advantage of the F150, I'm struggling with this question. Thanks.

    What’s wild to me is that the ride quality for these big trucks and SUVs would be so much better with a 17,18 or even 19 wheel and nothing above 20”. Yes, I get that it looks luxurious but at what cost? Easily flat tires? Rough ride quality? I’m bias because I live in the Midwest but I couldn’t imagine paying so much for something that’d ride so rough.

    Does the light bar on the steering wheel top blink all the time or is it from your camera?

      No worries. These will be available in your local buy here, pay here lots at 60% off MSRP in about 5 years. As long as you don’t mind the 28” chrome rims, marijuana residue, and subwoofers in the trunk. 😂

      Or mini van. Alot of people sleep on mini vans but the way they are packaged is terrific. Many years ago we moved a John Deere garden tractor in a '98 Ford Windstar. We couldn't have done the same with the '03 Ford Explorer that replaced it.

    • @ALMX5DP
      @ALMX5DP Рік тому +1

      I’d think the bike could also fit inside this Denali, though being a press vehicle and wanting to film the various parts of the interior along the route might have simply made more sense to bring it via the hitch caddy. Certainly there are more practical vehicles if you don’t need the towing, ground clearance or four wheel drive but this combines everything into one package.

    • @drivingsports
      @drivingsports  Рік тому +3

      Also, the bike it rather heavy. Not easy to lift up into an SUV. (and when done riding, who wants to wrangle a dirty bike into the cargo area?) Bonus: we got to show the hitch camera while driving.
