A new family vehicle is on the list of your next big purchases, and you’ll need something that can accommodate all your travels. If you and your loved ones enjoy spending time outdoors, whether in the forest or on the lake, then the GMC Yukon is set for your adventures near and far!
Below, our Mark Wahlberg Buick GMC team shares with you how the Yukon is set to help you safely tow around Columbus, Grove City, and Dublin, Ohio, and enjoy your next vacation to the fullest.
If you were wondering if the GMC Yukon can tow, it in fact can, and it does so thanks to the strength of its frame and the power it produces. Ultimately, the towing capacity of the Yukon is dependent on the configuration you choose.
To enjoy maximum towing strength, the available Max Trailering Package, which features an enhanced cooling radiator, allows the Yukon to pull up to 8,400 pounds. Depending on your boat’s size, you can use the GMC Yukon to take it up to Lake Erie in the summer to go fishing or tubing with the kids.
You’ll even be able to bring out the camper to the Wayne National Forest if you want to unplug and spend a couple of nights around the fit pit roasting marshmallows with the family! Even if you are renting a tree chipper to make the removal of a tree in your yard simple, the Yukon is ready to help you bring it right to your home.
The GMC Yukon comes already set up to do some basic towing and to help you feel confident while doing so. That is because it comes with the equipment needed to hitch up, which includes:
- Trailering hitch platform
- 2-inch trailer receiver
- 7-wire electrical harness and 7-pin connector
Standard too with the Yukon is trailer sway control. As you drive, this system will monitor the movement of your trailer, and if it senses that it is beginning to go off course, it can apply the trailer brakes automatically to help make sure it rolls along safely within your lane.
There are also some additional packages that you can get to help provide more peace of mind as you pull along your trailer or equipment with your GMC Yukon. That includes the available ProGrade™ Trailering System.
With it, you’ll get Hitch Guidance with Hitch View to help you line up your vehicle to whatever you plan to tow. It also features Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert. When looking to change lanes, this feature can help you ensure that there is enough room for both your vehicle and trailer to merge over.
Another set of helpful features is included with the available Enhanced Trailering Technology Package. This gives you even more visibility of your surroundings when towing with its Trailer Camera Provision, Auxiliary Trailer Camera, and Trailering Assist Guidelines.
With the GMC Yukon towing capacity, you’ll be set to pull along a variety of equipment along the roads of Columbus, Grove City, and Dublin, OH, with this SUV. This is just one of the various capabilities of the Yukon too. Come discover what else the GMC Yukon can provide for you and your family by visiting us at Mark Wahlberg Buick GMC today!
