Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr SUV, ext. 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
The standard power seat offers unlimited seating positions. see full GMC Yukon review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8 4-speed automatic AWD |
The seats are big, have a good amount of padding, and still provide some side lubar support to help keep you in the seat during hard cornering. see full GMC Yukon review |

Captains chairs might be more comfortable than front seats. 3rd row is essentially useless. Remove the seats for extra storage space see full GMC Yukon review |

Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Heated seats are wonderful in winter. Dual zone heater/air conditioner a plus for driver/passenger comfort. Back-up camera is handy for checking what the mirrors don't pick up. Quiet, smooth engine/transmission. Comfortable seats are easily adjustable. Easy access and good leg-room in rear seats. see full Toyota Avalon review |

Seats are too short. Toyota seats are generally not comfortable, but for a car in this price range I would have expected better. see full Toyota Avalon review |
