How do the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL compare on seating, cargo and towing?
The Yukon starts at $69,600 and the Yukon XL at $72,600, both as GMC states starting MSRP for the 2026 model year. The diesel leads on fuel economy in both models, according to the EPA’s certified 2026 figures.
| Model and drive | Engine | City / highway / combined (mpg) |
|---|---|---|
| Yukon, rear-wheel drive | 5.3-liter V8 gasoline | 15 / 20 / 17 |
| Yukon, 4-wheel drive | 5.3-liter V8 gasoline | 15 / 19 / 17 |
| Yukon, 4-wheel drive | 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel | 20 / 24 / 22 |
| Yukon XL, rear-wheel drive | 5.3-liter V8 gasoline | 15 / 20 / 17 |
| Yukon XL, 4-wheel drive | 5.3-liter V8 gasoline | 14 / 19 / 16 |

Pick the model and engine first, then the trim, because those choices set the starting price you compare.
What goes into the out-the-door price of a Yukon in Houston?
Ask any dealer for that total in writing for the exact truck you are pricing. The out-the-door total starts with the vehicle price and adds the taxes and fees that apply to your purchase.
GMC lists the 2026 Yukon’s starting MSRP from $69,600 for the Elevation to $103,900 for the Denali Ultimate. Texas sales tax is 6.25% of the sales price minus any trade-in allowance (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, 2026). State registration for a passenger vehicle is $51.75, which includes the $1 TexasSure fee, plus a $4.75 processing and handling fee. County fees range from $0 to $31.50, set by each county’s commissioners court (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, 2026).
The title manual puts Harris County in the $33 title application group (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, 2026). Texas sets no hard dollar cap on the documentary fee. The state’s presumed reasonable level is $225, and a dealer charging more must file a cost analysis and notification with the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner (Texas OCCC, 2024).
Every figure in this example is hypothetical. Say a Yukon Elevation sells for $69,600 with a $20,000 trade-in. Tax is 6.25% of $49,600, or $3,100. Add the $33 title fee, $51.75 registration and $4.75 processing fee, and the total is $3,189.50 before the county fee and the documentary fee.

How do you book and run a GMC Yukon test drive in Houston and finish the purchase?
Plan the test drive for the trim you picked, with your questions written down before you arrive. Take time with the truck, because a rushed walk-around is the easiest way to miss something.
In a July 2026 Google review, Faruq S. described the time they were given. They wrote: “he showed me a great experience. Giving me time when I wanted to inspect the car in detail and answering my questions, addressing my concerns and never being pushy. I felt respected and valued the whole time. The pricing was straight forward and they even worked with me a little. The process was pleasant”
Once the drive settles the choice, ask for the out-the-door total in writing and sign when it matches the number you were quoted.

In a May 2026 Google review, Robert L. wrote: “Had a great experience working with the Daymon Domingue on my new GMC Sierra AT4 purchase. They were patient throughout the negotiation process, transparent with the numbers, and worked hard to help me get to a deal I was comfortable with. I appreciated that he took the time to answer all my questions, explain the pricing, and help maximize the value of my trade-in. The process was much smoother than I expected and I never felt pressured.”
