We have the same truck but a 2003 and has 3.73's, I ran 235/85's on my previous diesel Chevy truck and the Yukon, they are a good balance for towing power and rough dirt roads. The Cooper at3's are what I had on the truck and were amazing in the snow and rain as well as beat them up during...
At some point soon I plan to replace our Yukon with another truck, we love the Yukon but I miss having a truck with slide-in camper. The trucks I am debating between are the 06-08 Ram 1500 mega cab and the 09+ f150 supercrew with 6.5 ft bed. In the Ram the leather package Laramie leaves much to...
A close friend has that same truck and it runs well, I am still puzzled why they kept the 1500 badge even though it has the solid front axle and many of the 2500 parts. Is yours an SLT package? How many miles and why are you selling it?
This truck will never see bigger tires, it will be for camping and fishing in places that we tow our 20 ft Lund on a tandem axle trailer. We live at 4800 ft and regularly tow over 8000 ft, so finding the right gearing will keep the power where it's needed.
Dang, having built several of these I can say it's a steal at that price, with that steering it makes a huge difference in feel and reduces death wobble.
I certainly haven't ruled out the 2500. As for "running with the big dogs", with 3.92 gears vs 3.73 gears the Yukon has and with an extra gear in the tranny it should tow a bit better, right now we average 8.7 mpg towing at 70-75 mph and 13ish empty, so anything over that and I would be ecstatic.
I have been missing having a truck with in bed camper and looking at replacing our Yukon XL, it has the 6.0 and tows our boat "okay". I want to find a decent used truck that will tow our boat (5k combined boat/trailer weight) and mount a lightweight popup camper (likely an FWC or similar), price...
