  • Style

    2019 GMC Yukon XL

    The way a vehicle presents itself on the outside can sometimes be just as important as what it can do under the hood. When it comes to the 2019 GMC Yukon XL the best way to describe its exterior style is tough with a strong sense of regality that makes it both charming and eye-catching from every angle. Delivering a refined sense of ruggedness is what GMC does best as it takes your preconceived notions of large vehicles being only useful for intimidating, and throws them out the window by manufacturing massive vehicles with a whole lot of class.

    Front and center the 2019 Yukon XL sports the signature GMC logo on its enormous split section grille that along with the large lights takes up nearly the entire front and gives this mode its sense of boldness that brings drivers in. This design may sound obnoxious, but once you get a close look, you will find that it has an impressive bout of visual appeal with its clean and straightforward approach.

    Anyone who wants to add a little more flair to this design can easily do so by upgrading the trim level or going for the Black Edition. Higher level trims such as the well-known Denali model will instantly boost the exterior appeal of the 2019 Yukon XL by simply highlighting its best features in chrome. It may not seem like much but it is a tiny touch makes all the difference. As for the Black Edition, it boasts both refinement and boldness by darkening some of the main features such as the grille, wheels, and trimming.

    Honestly speaking, the 2019 GMC Yukon XL is a vehicle that you couldn’t miss even if you tried, and you clearly won’t want to.

    2019 Toyota Sequoia

    The 2019 Sequoia by design is large and sort of clumsy looking with many features and parts that seem out of place. For example, the headlights and grille are subjectively unattractive as the lights are strangely shaped like a sideways P and the grille seems to pop out in a way that only adds to the already obnoxious size of this class of vehicle in a way that is very unappealing. Overall, the 2019 Toyota Sequoia does not hit its high with looks due to its unique style choices that highlight its bulky design instead of its power or practicality. Perhaps those with more modern taste will find it enjoyable, but it certainly is not a vehicle that caters to mass appeal in the appearance department.

  • Practicality

    2019 GMC Yukon XL

    The 2019 GMC Yukon XL measures to be 224″ L x 81″ W x 74″ H and is one of the largest SUVs available with three rows of seating. The cabin of this mode can hold up to eight passengers while still making room for 39.3 cu.ft of space if you don’t need the room for passengers though there is an impressive 121.7 cu.ft of space available for cargo of all shapes and sizes. This space is completely flexible as the seats can easily fold up and down and split right down the middle so there is nothing you won’t have the room for as you set up the cabin exactly how you want it for the next journey.

    Other than utility this model also offers a seemingly limitless amount of standard and advanced technology options that make driving comfort, safety, and fun in every way you need while giving the cabin a touch of luxury.

    All-in-all if you are the type of driver that simply needs something to get people around in, this may not work for you, but if you truly want to know what it feels like to be royalty on the road with one of the most balanced, brilliant, bold, and beautiful vehicles in its class, then this is a vehicle that can change your life.

    2019 Toyota Sequoia

    The 2019 Toyota Sequoia is a full-sized SUV that can comfortably seat up to eight passengers and provides a maximum of 120 cu.ft of cargo space when the second and third rows of seating are folded down. This space is yours to do with as you please as you mix and match between cargo and seating space seamlessly to fit exactly what needs to come along for the ride. If you do need to accommodate eight passengers though you will be limited to 18.9 cu.ft, which Is fairly low for this class.

    When it comes to practicality, the main appeal of this vehicle is the price and the modern technology it offers, but when it comes to providing the space drivers expect from vehicles of this class, the 2019 GMC Yukon XL has this round won.

  • Capability

    2019 GMC Yukon XL

    The 2019 GMC Yukon XL easily impresses with its daringly refined looks and limitless practicality while on the road, but under the hood is where drivers will go from like to love. There are two main engine options including an engine that is standard with lower trim levels that are perfect for affordability and balanced efficiency, and an advanced option or high trim levels that brings out the best in the 2019 Yukon XL. The standard is a .3L V8 that pairs with 6-speed automatic transmission and delivers a reliable 355 hp, 385 lb-ft, and 22 MPG highway. The advanced is a 6.2L V8 paired with a 10-speed auto transmission that boasts 420 hp, 460 lb-ft of torque, and a towing potential of 8,100 pounds. It’s also important to note that the 2019 Yukon XL offers a number of features that make driving in any condition on any terrain a walk in the park. Both engine options are ideal for this model; it’s just about which one is more suited to your driving needs.

    2019 Toyota Sequoia

    The 2019 Toyota Sequoia is only offered with a single standard engine. The positive of this is knowing you are always getting the best this model can offer, but the negative is that you have little to no freedom to choose your own type of driving experience. This engine is a 5.7L V8 that delivers 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque and is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. This model also delivers a max of 7,400 pounds when it comes to towing potential. It’s not the best or most flashy option when it comes to power, but it is one of the more cheap and straightforward.
