To the OP, the Tahoe/Yukon is an excellent choice for an all-around utility vehicle. Mine is 4WD. I can get 7' lumber in behind the front seats, 8' if I lay it on the console. The Yukon is my back up towing vehicle for the utility trailers, up to 8100#. My biggest bumper pull is my 16' trailer at 7000#, so no problem. Has the Max Tow package so it has an exhaust brake and integrated trailer brake controller. It has 6 passenger capacity, although the 3rd row seats are always down for hauling cargo. They are power fold so putting them up is no problem, just push a button. With about 2500 miles on it, I am getting a combined 22 MPG, mostly in town driving. Best I have done on a road trip is 30 MPG. After filling it with diesel up it shows 525 miles available. Determination for travel distance between stops is me, not the vehicle.
