  • The Yukon Denali Ultimate is here and GMC wants to be the leader in full size luxury SUVs. This competes directly with the Ford expedition, Toyota Sequoia, Infiniti QX80, Cadillac Escalade and Lincoln Navigator. On the outside you will find a uniq grill, nead headlights, 22in wheels and automatic running boards. On the inside there is a higher level of materials and finishes. Under the hood is a 6.2L V8 that now produces 420HP & is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2023 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate a BETTER luxury SUV than a Lincoln Navigator?

    Joe, the moment this vehicle sold me was when you pointed out that the rear glass wiper has FINALLY been tucked underneath the spoiler. Geezzz... took them long enough! Even that Bentley Bentayga didn't have the rear glass wiper tucked underneath the spoiler! Just an FYI... years ago, the Denali trim USED to be very upscale. However, over the past 10 or 12 years, it had become only a minor upscale trim. With the "Ultimate" tag, this one is truly upscale.

    • @jeffs6090
      @jeffs6090 Рік тому

      I understand the aesthetics of it on the outside, but functionally it's better to have the wiper on the bottom. In order to easily see the road out the back, you want the clear part of the wiped window to be wider on the bottom. I've been in vehicles with the wiper on top, and it's horrible to properly see when it's raining. Then when it dries, it's even worse. You're constantly needing to clean the rear window in order to safely see everything.
      Now, the fact that this has a digital rear view mirror makes it just fine to have the wiper on top. Every vehicle should have one of those! I love them! Hopefully it becomes standard across all automakers soon.

    Joe, very confusing the dark chrome and shiny chrome? It should be all dark chrome in my opinion. The Navigator has more horsepower and better fuel mileage. The Lincoln has on the Black Label a map of Central Park like C
    GmC has the map of Mt Denali. GMC is a step ahead of Ford especially with the rear wiper and dual exhaust. You could say the Denali is a dressed up Chevy Tahoe/Suburban.

    Everytime I see the yukon I think of Optimus Prime❤❤❤!!! My only thing is that ultimate literally is just a 2021-22 Denali. They took away features from the Denali just to give it back as an "Ultimate" for what you originally would've gotten in a 2021-22 Denali? Plus, encroaching on Escalade prices might as well go Escalade. The only reason I can see Tahoe is outselling these is because they stayed significantly lower than the Escalade's price point. Beautiful truck though great work Raiti's Ride!

This is as luxurious as it gets and of u get any more luxurious they might as well add a trim called the Yukon Escalade Edition 😆 Also Joe the last SUV that I'm interested in will be the Palisade XRT.

      @@claudiadiaz8600 nope the local dealership told me AFTER I gave them a deposit and not until two weeks had gone by that GMC will notify them once the order is accepted here it is 3 months later and not a word so I found an identical one in Minnesota and bought it it’s getting delivered next week!
