Besides some improvements to the transmission and internal parts, the 2002 GMC Yukon XL full-size SUV didn't do too much to detract from or improve upon its strong reputation in the automotive community. This 4 door workhorse comes in 13 trims and features 5.3 L and 6.0 L V8 powertrains packing around 300-320 hp. Think of the SLT as more luxurious than the SLE with standard features that include leather seats. Depending on which trim you choose, you'll have room to seat 8-9 passengers.
Gas mileage across trims averages around 14 mpg in the city and 19 on the highway. Max towing capacity usually ranges from 8000-9000 lbs. with some trims reaching 12000. Cargo capacity comes out to a roomy 132 cubic feet.
As usual, drivers like the '02 Yukon XL's roomy interior and powerful V8's. While its materials could use an upgrade, most reviewers agree that the Yukon XL gets the job done in more ways than one.
What owners say
Not one thing wrong to say about it. $59K price tag, Allison Tranny, 6.0L Vortech with 340hp, g80 locking diffs, all wheel drive, all heated seats, four zone climate control, seating for 7, can tow the 9500lbs boat without flinching, automatic self-leveling rear suspension keeps it nice and level all the time, bose 13 speaker system, Michelin XC all purpose tyres: quiet and comfortable yet are brilliant in rain snow gravel dirt and mud, 20 mpg on motorway, 14 mpg in city. Couldn't ask for a better vehicle 70K miles and was only at a dealership once: when they were taking it off the truck so I could buy it. Never used the warranty once, nothing has ever gone wrong with it. No squeeks or rattles either, tight as a drum!
April 16, 200810 years old and going strong. Paint holding up well 60,000 miles on original brakes. Easy to drive. Good visibility. On Star no longer supported (analog). Reasonably quiet on road. Love the 500 cubic inch mill. Daily driver. Highly recommend.
November 12, 2011Loved all the room for traveling with family. Handles great seats clean up so easy, car mates all through the vehicle. Doors open wide for easy access to the very back of the vehicle. 3rd see can be removed for hauling large items
