1500 Yukon XL Denali vs 2500 Suburban 8.1
Hello all, As you can see from my subject line, I'm contemplating making a change from my 2005 GMC Yukon XL Denali to a 2004 Chevy Suburban (2500). I'm looking for some real world comparisons ...

Probably due in part to this thread about GM fudging payload ratings on trucks. The "curb weight" is always for a stripper model, and the mfr takes out as much as possible to get to that weight to make the yaload seem bigger than it is.
Consider that the 8.1 is 358 lbs heavier than the 6.0 (761 lbs vs. 403 lbs.) all by itself. Look at the list of gizmos that you get with the LT version vs the "base" model, and it's pretty easy to get to the 1000 lb difference.
