The base Yukon XL starts two grand higher than the base Suburban, so it's worth comparing the spec sheets and determining where the value is for your needs.
We love the optional diesel for its incredible fuel economy and effortless torque. You do lose a little in terms of max towing capacity, just because the diesel package adds weight to the vehicle.
The 4WD option does take a bite out of fuel economy (unlike on the regular Yukon, which is a bit suspicious), but we're guessing most buyers would prefer to have 4x4 functionality in this beast. Max towing capacity drops to 8,000 pounds, though — 300 pounds less than the 2WD version.
We still love the diesel with 4WD added, but towing drops down to 7,700 pounds at the most, which is closer to what we'd expect from a midsize SUV. Just something to keep in mind if you plan to tow heavy things. Otherwise, the diesel's a peach.
The 6.2-liter 4WD Yukon XL is technically cheaper to start than the RWD version because the off-road-oriented AT4 offers the 6.2 as an option, whereas the 6.2 RWD is only offered in the pricier Denali trim. Of course, you can get a 4WD Denali, too, which will run you a few grand more.
If you want a rear-wheel drive Yukon XL with the big 6.2-liter V8, your only option is the Denali trim, which is why the starting price is so high. The AT4 offers the 6.2 as an option for less coin, but it's an aggressive 4WD-only variant.
