Nine-passenger capacity combined with strong towing power is hard to come by, and it's what makes the 2019 GMC Yukon XL a great choice for big families with big toys. Aside from a few other truck-based large SUVs, there isn't anything else available that can match the Yukon XL's skill set. The trade-off is that the Yukon's imposing mass and traditional SUV design compromise maneuverability, fuel economy and ride comfort.
Pros Seats up to nine passengers Plenty of cargo capacity, even with all the seats deployed High towing ratings
Cons Size, weight and length make it unwieldy around town Slow gas pedal response makes base engine feel weaker than it's rated Cargo space utility is limited by high load floor
