At the top of the Yukon XL trim line is the 2009 GMC Yukon XL SLT-2 1/2 Ton. It shares a drivetrain and performance features with the SLE-1, SLE-2, and SLT-1 1/2 Ton trims and then adds a couple of high-end upgrades to SLT-1 1/2 Ton's comfort and convenience additions. The SLT-2 seating upgrades to leather-appointed front seats with 10-way power adjustments for the driver and passenger with power lumbar support, heated seat cushions and seatbacks, and two-position driver memory. And the exterior mirrors are heated, power-adjustable, and power-folding, with auto-dimming for the driver, integrated turn signals, ground illumination, and curb tilt. The SLT-2 1/2 Ton gets 14 city/20 highway mpg and has a maximum payload of 1,592 pounds and a maximum towing capacity of 5,600 pounds.
