Default Can someone explain to me...

why a BONE STOCK 5.3 Yukon XL feels a **** ton faster than my truck?
I do state inspections at work occasionally, and drove one today for a brake test and this things got way more pickup than me...

Yukon was a 2004
Mine's a 2006

Also just got back from running against my friends 08 xcab 5.3
from a dig he got me, but I spun all the way through 1st, so that might be it.
from a ten and thirty roll all he saw was white tailgate.
