      General Motors took an impressive step forward designing and building the GMT900 based 2007 GMC Yukon. The Yukon and Tahoe had some of the best craftsmanship we had seen in a fullsize SUV yet. The body panel gaps were tight and the interiors were exquisitely trimmed. Under the hood of the Yukon was a 5.3L V8 producing 320-hp and 340 lb-ft of torque. This engine featured the Active Fuel Management system that could cut power to 4-cylinders while under light load to reduce fuel consumption. This V8-V4 mode earned this fullsize SUV an impressive 21-mpg EPA highway rating.
