In the year before a major redesign, not much changed for the GMC Yukon SUV. The '06 Yukon has 5 trims: the SL, SL 4WD, SLE, SLE 4WD, and Denali AWD. You'll get your choice of 3 powertrains: a 4.8 L, 285 hp V8, 5.4 L, 295 hp V8, and 6.0 L, 335 hp V8.
Gas mileage across trims comes out to around 15 mpg in the city and 19 on the highway. SL's have 4 doors and seat 6 while the SLE's seat 9 and offer optional sunroof and navigation system. With second row seats folded and third row removed, cargo capacity reaches 105 cubic feet. SL's and SLE's have max towing capacity of 7700 lbs. while the Denali AWD tows up to 8100 lbs.
Overall, drivers like the roomy interior and powerful V8 powertrains. However, they also say that the Yukon needs better materials. Despite the shortcomings, the 2006 GMC Yukon delivers in just about every facet. Go for an '07 if you want something even more modern.
What owners say
"Overall, owners really enjoy the 2006 GMC Yukon for its comfort, spaciousness, and luxury features. Many praise its pleasant ride and the array of options like heated seats and premium sound. However, some noted minor issues, although they didn’t detract significantly from their overall positive experience."
I like the 2006 Yukon, but have not been in a 2007. It has enough room for my family and travels nicely and comofortably.
August 29, 2007Great vehicle. A few minor issues but no real problems. Rides great. I would definitely tell a friend to tell another friend
July 9, 2020I liked pretty much everything about this car. It was very comfortable. The heated seats and the power folding mirrors were my favorite options. After nine years, the paint job still looked great. Not bad for a car that wasn't garaged. I also became a fan of satellite radio because of this car. I got 6 months free and kept renewing the subscription
