Reviews Summary With options quickly disappearing in the near-luxury large SUV segment, the GMC Yukon XL seems to deliver with a duo of powerful engines, a wealth of seating and storage, and 8,000 pounds of towing capacity. But manufacturing oversights and some competent competition mean you should strongly consider alternatives before making your decision. Before you discount the Yukon entirely, take a look at improvements that have been added to the 2016: a faster processor for its IntelliLink system, Apple CarPlay, and added safety features like lane-keep assist and auto high beams, plus SLT trims and above are now fitted with a hands-free power rear liftgate.
Reviews Summary The 2017 Durango offers a range of trims that take the interior from basic to beautiful. Even in its highest trim levels, however, it doesn’t scream luxury in a refined, fancy way. There’s a ruggedness to the Durango that fits the Dodge brand, so even when you add leather seats and rear-seat entertainment, this SUV is more about function than it is about looking pretty. That said, you can get your Durango very well equipped, with all the features you need to keep the kids entertained and the adults comfortable.
