2017 GMC YUKON

If you're searching for a 2017 GMC Yukon SLT for sale in South Gate, CA, your search may end right here. Car Zone Auto Mall has this full-size SUV ready for a test drive, and it brings together the commanding presence, refined interior, and proven powertrain that made the Yukon one of America's most trusted family haulers. With over 104,000 miles on the clock, this is a vehicle that has been put to work — and the Yukon SLT is built to keep going long after many lesser SUVs have been retired.

About This 2017 GMC Yukon SLT

The 2017 model year is a sweet spot for Yukon buyers. GMC had already completed its comprehensive redesign in 2015, so by 2017 this generation was fully mature — refined, well-sorted, and loaded with the features buyers actually want. The SLT trim sits in a compelling position in the Yukon lineup, offering premium content without the premium price tag of the Denali. At just over 104,000 miles, this Yukon is well into its working life but nowhere near done. With proper maintenance, these trucks routinely push well past 200,000 miles, making this a vehicle with a lot of road left in it.

2017 GMC Yukon Performance and Engine

The EcoTec3 5.3L V8 — A Workhorse You Can Trust

Under the hood sits GMC's EcoTec3 5.3-liter V8, one of the most celebrated truck engines in the industry. This engine pairs cylinder deactivation technology with direct injection and variable valve timing to deliver strong power without completely punishing the fuel budget. The six-speed heavy-duty automatic transmission manages power delivery smoothly, and the rear-wheel-drive configuration keeps the weight down while delivering confident highway cruising. Whether you're merging onto the 710, hauling gear through Los Angeles County, or running a full load of passengers, this powertrain handles it without drama.

GMC Yukon SLT Features and Interior

Space, Comfort, and Technology for the Whole Family

The SLT trim on the 2017 Yukon is not a stripped-down base model dressed up with a badge. This is a genuine premium package. Buyers can expect genuine leather-appointed seating across three rows, a heated front seat configuration, power-adjustable front seats, and a dual-zone automatic climate control system. The Yukon SLT also includes the IntelliLink infotainment system with an eight-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth audio streaming, and available navigation. A Bose premium audio system was available at this trim level, and the rear entertainment system was a popular factory option on this generation. The fold-flat third row gives you the flexibility to go from people-mover to cargo carrier in minutes — an everyday advantage when life in Southern California demands versatility.

GMC Yukon Reliability and Ownership

What Owners Actually Experience With the 2017 Yukon

The fifth-generation Yukon earned strong marks from owners and long-term reviewers alike. The EcoTec3 5.3L V8 has a long track record of durability when maintained on schedule — oil changes, transmission fluid, and brake inspections are the primary maintenance touchpoints at this mileage range. Owners of high-mileage Yukons frequently report that the body, frame, and interior hold up well over time, which is a real advantage when you're buying used. The air suspension (where equipped) is a watch point on high-mileage examples, but this vehicle's conventional suspension setup avoids that concern entirely. Overall, the 2017 Yukon SLT is considered one of the more dependable full-size SUV purchases you can make in the used market.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2017 GMC Yukon SLT a good buy?

Yes — the 2017 Yukon SLT is widely regarded as one of the stronger used full-size SUV values available. The EcoTec3 5.3L V8 is proven and durable, the SLT trim delivers genuine premium features, and the Yukon platform has a well-documented record of longevity. Buyers looking for a three-row SUV with towing capability and long-term reliability consistently rank this generation highly.
 

How many miles is too many for a 2017 GMC Yukon?

The 2017 Yukon with the 5.3L V8 is not considered high-risk at 104,000 miles. These engines and transmissions are engineered for truck duty and routinely hit 200,000 miles or more with consistent maintenance. At just over 100K, a well-maintained Yukon still has the majority of its mechanical life ahead of it.
 

What does the Yukon SLT trim include?

The SLT trim is GMC's premium mid-level configuration, sitting above the SLE and below the Denali. Standard SLT features typically include leather-appointed seating, heated front seats, power-adjustable seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, the eight-inch IntelliLink touchscreen, Bluetooth connectivity, a universal home remote, and a host of safety and convenience technologies that step up significantly from the base trim.
 

Is 2WD a problem on a Yukon?

For the vast majority of buyers in the Los Angeles area, 2WD is an entirely practical choice. Two-wheel-drive Yukons are lighter, deliver slightly better fuel economy, and have fewer mechanical components to maintain than their 4WD counterparts. Unless you're regularly driving in snow or off-road terrain — which most Southern California buyers are not — 2WD is the smart, cost-effective configuration.
 

Can I tow with a 2017 GMC Yukon SLT 5.3L?

Absolutely. The 2017 Yukon with the EcoTec3 5.3L V8 and the heavy-duty six-speed automatic transmission is rated to tow up to 8,500 pounds when properly equipped. That covers boats, horse trailers, utility trailers, and most recreational loads with ease.
