What transmission is in the GMC? If it's an Allison then I wouldn't have any worries. Any other one and I'd steer clear. Lots on info out there on their transmissions, even their newer models. Very true. Forget Chevy/gmc still can’t build a transmission.

We’ve had a couple of Lexus SUVs, still have my 100 series LX, we like Lexus.
I think the GMC has an Allison transmission?
The Lexus GX550 Overtrail would be the one we would get.

diesel @ 3.60/ gallon means 100$ fuel stops + DEF = not my idea of wife's daily driver .. It balances out. I get 28-ish mpg with my 3.0 it’s worth the extra bit for fuel. Most full size’s get about 20. Unless I’m towing, def just about in sync with oil change for usage. It gives you a 1000 mile warning. Little higher maintenance schedule than a gas one, but it seems worth it so far.

Lexus or Yota. After we whipped that ass in WWII they got their heads on straight, and now build a quality product.

The woman bladder size cancels that out to a degree.

1970 Chevelle SS. 454 motor. I know where one is for a steal. Only 20 made.

diesel @ 3.60/ gallon means 100$ fuel stops + DEF = not my idea of wife's daily driver .. Lexus requires Premium gas. I personally have been disappointed in our Lexus GX 550. It’s small, it rides rough, looks cheap inside and it’s rough on gas.
