#4 of 44 Rear seats by samnoe Nov 16, 2005 (5:09 pm)
3rd row seating: Will it fold and hide into the floor? Will it be a one-piece, or 50/50? or better, 60/40? Replies to this message: nedzel (Jan 11, 2006 9:33 am) nedzel (Jan 11, 2006 9:31 am) tireguy (Jan 18, 2006 12:16 pm)
#5 of 44 Diesel Engine in 2007? by jkev99 Nov 17, 2005 (2:55 pm)
I read in a magazine in Barnes and Noble that GM was offering a duramax diesel engine in suburbans in 2007. That is all of the information the article had. Has anyone else heard this?

Here are a few spy pics of the new surburban. If you notice it's a 2500 because of the 8 lug wheel pattern. click here to see the pics
#9 of 44 don't need spy pics anymore by morey000 Dec 09, 2005 (2:35 pm)
the GMC web site has plenty of photos and info, at least of the Yukon length.   http://www.gmc.com/newvehicles/2007yukon/index.jsp   That 5.3LV8 DOD engine seems to be the hot ticket. Good power and a claimed 21mpg on the hwy. Better than most mid-sized SUVs get.

UGLY and then some…. Thought it was a Ford. Looks just like the 05′Expedition. Nice original design lines GM really did their homework on this. Copy cats. I can only imagine the engineering nightmares for this new platform.    HOW about a Duramax Diesel in the 3/4 ton models?? GM should be concerned about building a truck for a family, that can tow something besides a pop-up tent trailer! Not everybody wants a pickup. Replies to this message: tireguy (Jan 05, 2006 6:33 pm)

http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/AutoshowArticles/articleId=108752#1   I love the interior it's probably the biggest improvement. No doubt large families in Kuwait are going to be buying them in droves!

Replying to: gmdownhill (Dec 16, 2005 8:53 am) You're right. From the rear quarter it looks exactly like a late model Expedition, which is anything but impressive. I sure hope the pickups won't look like this. Coil springs in the front? What's with GM? First they go back to rear drum brakes on their full-size pickups, now coil springs on the SUV. Somebody's been watching too much "I love the 80s" on VH1. Granted these are coil-over, not just coils, but the torsion bars offered height adjustability and ease of damper replacement. Power-folding second row? In the outgoing model you can fold the seats down with a bag of groceries in your other hand. And the middle seats are as comfortable as the front buckets. The new power seats look significantly slimmer in the base (see demo on GMC's website). The cockpit does look a bit better. A little Walnut goes a long way. But why the heck would I want a heated steering wheel? To keep the cold leather from chilling my tender hands? So much for the working man's professional grade truck! At least they That 6.2L would be a tremendous improvement over the 5.3, but it's only available in the Denali, so once again--it appears--if you want the big engine you can't have a real four wheel drive system (with a low range and locking transfer case). Go to the GMC site and stare at the 07 Yukon, the click over to the 06 picture. The 00-06 Yukon is one of the nicest trucks the General ever put on the streets. I certainly won't be trading in my 04 Yukon XL on one of these Envoy XXLs any time soon.
