ABS self test?
 
Maybe the self-leveling AutoRide suspension doing something?
 
Do you hear it only when first driving it or can you hear it after running errands for a while?

Per your description, I would guess its one of the brake pad(s) that caused the sound.
To check if that is indeed the case, after you have backed your car out of your garage on to a straight and flat road:
1. put your transmission in "N" then let go the brake pedal (make sure the car is not rolling)
2. slide the shifter in to "D" from "N"
3. let your car "roll" forward (no need to give any gas) for a few feet
4. then press the brake pedal, see if you hear the same "popping" sound???
If you do, then there is a very good chance that one of the pads is sliding just a bit in the caliper. The pad that's sliding/hitting against the caliper caused the sound your heard. Hope that's all it is... Good Luck!

ABS brakes have a self test function - usually you hear and feel the test when you first drive away in your car. The sound in many cars is a dull clunk though if you hear it at all, not what I'd call a popping. Sometimes you can feel a shudder through the brake pedal during the self test as well.

Road Noise by gstorie

I have a 2004 Denali and when driving you hear excessive road and engine noise. It almost seems as if there is a door open. I have just purchased a new set of tires and the tire noise is worse. I have had other SUV's but none with noise like this. Am wondering if others might have the same problem.

My 06 Denali did the same thing. I became irritated and removed the speaker grate which seemed to do the trick. I think the speaker was rattling against the grate.

Grinding noise when turning by c650

When I turn the steering wheel on my 2003 Yukon LX, there is a griding noise, rough feel.  Centered up, no noise.  Noise seems to be from the front, and occurs with the Quadrasteer on or off.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
