The rearward most button on the overhead console is to be pushed if you leave a pet or ( older ) child in the car - as soon as you lock the car, the security system is activated - any movement inside would set it off if that button isn't pressed before you leave. Great, informative video, as usual !!!
I have a new 2023 Yukon Denali with power assist steps. I’ve had five Yukon Denali’s in the past with the same steps. They have all had automatic lights on the steps that come on when steps come out. The 2023 has the same lighting on the steps, but no one can figure out how to get them to light when open. I’ve had the Denali for five weeks, the steps have lighted one time for less than 10 seconds. The dealer can’t figure out how to get them to light, and neither GM Corp doesn’t know either. Your review was fantastic, and I hoped you might have a solution for me on getting the steps to light while open. Thank you for your review, it was spot on. Let me know any ideas about the steps lighting.
Great video. I ordered mine a few months ago in April. However, there are more than 3 options for the vehicle. You said that you wished that the door plates were illuminated...that's an option which I ordered with mine which also includes the rear cargo sill plate. I also ordered the Brembo 6-piston brake package, Super Cruise, trailering/camera package, trailer tire pressure and temperature sensors, illuminuated GMC outside mirrors, engine block heater, and blacked-out Denali nameplates. The price came to: $108,565.00 (plus dealer prep, extended 7-year 100,000 mile warranty, 5-year silicone/teflon paint coating, new license plates, taxes...etc.)...which brought the grand total to: $124,875.00 after taxes.
Thank you! Dannggg that's big money, but you definitely got the loaded loaded Ultimate.. Please send me some pictures of that beast when it comes in if you would. 703speed@gmail.com.. I'd love to see how it looks
@703Speed I will. As I mentioned, I put the order in, in April. I put it in at the GMC superstore here in wisconsin. I'm still waiting for it to get allocated to GMC for the build. I stopped at the dealer earlier this week on Wednesday. And they said that my vehicle was next in line to get allocated to GMC to get built. Once it gets allocated, it will usually take about ninety days before it gets delivered to the dealer. Now it's just a waiting game.
Solid, thorough review. Better than most. This vehicle is a beaut! I just wish a few things. I wish I could get those same leather seats and such but in all black not that brown; I wish it came with Night Vision, at least as an option; and I wish I had the option of getting it with the thicker rubber 20" wheels of the AT4 instead of the 22"rs that come with it. An all blacked out exterior would be a nice option, or make all the chrome the darker Vader chrome, but with what Vader chrome is on the exterior there is enough that I might not do an after market chrome delete blackout job on the remaining shiny stuff. OR, maybe GM should come out with a Yukon AT4 Ultimate, the current AT4 with Escalade luxury on the interior. It's funny, but the Yukon AT4 and Denali each have something that the Escalades do not, though the Denali's is better than the AT4's. That's the sliding front center console, but more than anything about that is because if you slide it back, then you have a great, flat surface area resting an open laptop on the two padded leather rails on either side of the charging and cupholder bay. It can sit level there, open and stable, easily viewed by the driver or the passenger, it can be plugged in to the outlet, or run on batteries, turning this luxury full size suv into a very practical mobile work station or mobile home office. The AT4 rails to rest the laptop on still work for that but they are shorter. The Escalade does not have that at all.
I had a feeling not everyone would like the brown - I agree there should be a black option. Also, I too think there should be more wheel options.. I mean there are literally like 10 (wheel) options for the SLT and regular Denali, and if you're paying so much for this vehicle, there should definitely be more than one wheel option..
Yep i have sle duramax which is worth the price, i dont understand why people wanna spend 50 60% more of the price for the same vehicle with just bigger rims panoramic roof and lil extra bs
I just found your Channel with this Video and I am absolut impresed. Some may think that your Videos are to long, but i think that this is needed to make a such detailed Tour a you do. I am watching a lot of other Car Channels, but i have never seen so much Details from the Controls inside etc. Keep this quality and you have a new Subscriber.
OK this is a great video. A few observations that I have would be first of all the Toyota Capstone Sequoia cannot touch this in any way, shape or form GMC has nothing to worry about. Secondly, and I bet many comments as well. Agree with me here sometimes less is more and I’m talking about the massaging seats. They should’ve just left the massaging function with that nice switch and you click it and it massages high or you click it again and it massages low and that’s it. That would’ve been great. You really don’t need to click it to bring up a sub menu for all types of customization that you don’t need
Are there any night time interior lighting inside the Ultimate? The Escalade has a lot of lighting going on and in several colors across the dash, mid door, under dash lighting up feet area as well as back feet area, so was wondering about the Ultimate.
The refresh rate of the camera makes it look like that, but it is just a solid light. The Super Cruise system can be turned completely off, also ( then, nothing would be lit on the steering wheel )
Great review! One question, is there a way to deploy the running boards without having to open the door, like when you’re at a car wash getting pre soaked?
*gm* has gone from some of the blandest interiors in the game to some of the best interiors your money can buy across the industry. Their attention to detail has wowed me lately! The welcome animations for both the exterior and interior are truly top tier. It’s nice to have large displays but the *software* that’s powering them is just as important as the housing. Bravo, GMC! 😎🔥
I put my order in, in April. It's August 3rd and my order is supposed to get allocated to build in another month. Then, about 3 months to build it before the dealer takes delivery. So...about 8 months. And I ordered every option and spared no expense.
Expedition is too small. heck, the regular Yukon has more cargo space than the Expedition max. The XL is even bigger. My wife wont even get this model unless we get the XL version.
I have the 2023 Yukon Denali Ultimate and I can tell you DO NOT get the “Vader Chrome” it’s literally just a paint they put over the chrome and mine is already peeling off. Looks terrible now and they won’t fix it. I do love most things in this car but other SUVs in this class have heated and ventilated rear seats, this only has heated rear seats. The infotainment screen is also not very big and kinda low so you literally have to look down at it while taking your eyes off the road for far too long. Wosh it was higher and raised slighty above the dash like in other models. Also no sunglass holder in the roof and no pull up sun shades on the back doors. There could also be deeper storage in the cargo area. For the price tag and the label as “Ultimate” it is lacking ultimate features. It’s very comfortable and has a really nice ride especially on road trips but there are things I wish it had that it doesn’t.
Hello it's me Earl I really like this gmcyukon ultimate Denali it's better than a truck the only thing I don't like it is a one 1⃣ hundred thousand dollars 💵 it costs more than a truck 🚚 and this is a twenty three model but I really like this gmcyukon Denali I got to have it
For something classified as an "ultimate" edition, it's absurd that you don't get any choice on interior colors. Porsche has NO trouble putting out interior color choices on its cars. MINI also lets you get your seats in brown and gray. Screw the "supply" issues excuse GM. Youi just want to cheap out on labor. It looks bizarre in baseball leather and this costs over $100k. No wonder you needed a bailout.
@@703Speed You'll get a lot of advice from people who can't afford these vehicles. The reason they can't afford these vehicles is because they don't make good "money" decisions. That's why they are poor. They wouldn't know a good investment if it drove over the top of them. They think that everyone should be their walking clone and drive the same vehicle that they want to drive. I'm not arrogant enough to think that everyone should spend their money...the way that I think they should spend their money.
GMC YUKON :
The king of the road

youre a lie
The wheels really grew on me overtime. They are so intricately detailed and look much better in person.
This guy is spot on with the review of the Denali ultimate .
This is without question the best review of the Yukon Denali Ultimate I've seen - period.
The rearward most button on the overhead console is to be pushed if you leave a pet or ( older ) child in the car - as soon as you lock the car, the security system is activated - any movement inside would set it off if that button isn't pressed before you leave.

Thank you for the info! And I appreciate it!
Powerful and thorough review.
You really know you're stuff.
I'd love to own one some day.
You can do it brother !
Bring the 623HP to this for sure!!
Beautiful definitely on my list don't care for the wheels a little nerdy will be looking for a custom fit job!

It makes sense that some Escalade touches have trickled down because Escalade prices have trickles down to the Yukon as well

Are there any night time interior lighting inside the Ultimate?
The Escalade has a lot of lighting going on and in several colors across the dash, mid door, under dash lighting up feet area as well as back feet area, so was wondering about the Ultimate.
I looked, and from what I've found, the Escalade def has more interior ambient lighting
I don’t get how they do that for cars like the camaro but just leave it out on things like this smh
Great job on your video, does this Denali have rear wheel steer?
Yes it does. Starting with the 2023 models. Steering radius is much tighter, and makes it much easier to park in lots with more narrow spaces.
Great review! Only feedback I have is that you say “you guys” as a filler word, which is why you don’t realize how often you say it, but it’s A LOT
Near the end were there lights flashing on steering wheel?
The refresh rate of the camera makes it look like that, but it is just a solid light. The Super Cruise system can be turned completely off, also ( then, nothing would be lit on the steering wheel )
What S H said.. You can’t see it in person, but the camera picks it up
Great review! One question, is there a way to deploy the running boards without having to open the door, like when you’re at a car wash getting pre soaked?
No now you can set it up to stay open the whole time
😊how is this done?
@@robertgalindo1786 you just need to go in the vehicle settings where to power lift gate is located and it will give you the option to keep it lowered

Do you spend more time explain ING to us than a salespeople does?any idea how long it would take to get one? Thanks peace bro.
Probably lol. That’s why I make these videos. A lot of sales people really don’t know much about what they’re selling. The good ones do, however

If I had to choose between the Denali and the Ford Expedition I prefer the Ford but I need to see the video of the Escalade. And what is your name?
Escalade over all, but I’d say Denali. Sound system is a lot better
Expedition is too small. heck, the regular Yukon has more cargo space than the Expedition max. The XL is even bigger. My wife wont even get this model unless we get the XL version.
Living outside of Leesburg, I wonder how driving in DC with this beast would be like.

All the chrome should be Vader chrome & those wheels are hideous but other than that I love it
I agree. Kinda interesting how it’s not all Vader chrome..
Both, I will buy this SUV if prices decrease.
The prices are never going to decrease on the sticker you’ll have to wait until they start offering some incentives
How many price this car?
❤this denali is sweet
Can I pull an airstream or travel trailer with this
Yes. Dependent on how heavy the trailer is
It would be freaking awesome if they come out with a Yukon Denali Fully electric.
They probably will at some point, and I would bet that it would be absurdly expensive lol
That would be a horrible idea when it comes to towing.
