Default Just bought a new Yukon XL 4x4.!!!!!!

This thing is sweet!!!! It tells you the tire pressure of each tire on the display, has a voice activated phone built in, tells you milage, all kinds of stuff.

I think this one will stay mostly stock because of how heavy it is, but I will do the intake, quiet but free'r flowing exhaust, and tune it with HPT. I want to hit 20mpg on the highway. Window sticker says 18 so I think its posible. It has 3.42 gears which is what I wanted for highway. I'll try and post up some pics later.

Oh, I paid $34500 out the door with the extended warranty. Not bad considering the sticker was $43636.

Um, mods I dont believe the topic wasn't general discussion. I had questions with performance and gas milage and I'm not sure they will be answered here.

Very nice buy.

And of course that truck will remain stock, mostly.

Enjoy.

Mostly stock of course. Unless someone can prove or convince me a turbo/supercharger will help with gas milage.

You will see at least a 2.5 mpg increase because the engine will be working soooooooooooooo much more efficiently.

It is hard to believe but according to the weight thread your Yukon weighs less than my 1500HD? So you can at least go faster.
