 To all of the inquiries I've had so far, whether it was by E mail, or phone, and it's barely 6 hours in to the auction..
It seems that an auction is not an auction any more.
Everyone wants to know what the reserve is, almost before it starts, or what is my buy it now price, or what will it take to end the auction early.
So, that being the looming question of the day, I'll address it like this.
To anyone that has ever restored an older vehicle of any kind, they all know what it takes to bring it to this stage.
To those of you that haven't done it, all I can tell you is that you are in the best position by far of anyone.
I've done many cars in my 60 + years of  existence, and what I find, is that what you get out of it, is not how much you put in to it, but the satisfaction of doing it.
It is quite rewarding in so many ways, none of them are measured in dollars.
I'd say you get back about 50 cents on the dollar, but the next  owner is the recipient of a great deal always!
That being said, I can tell you that I have in excess of $23,000 in this truck, so do the math, and you will know what I expect from the sale.
If that is within your budget, then you know what to do.
Hopefully it goes to a good home, and you will take very good care of it.
It should last another 40 years if you do.
It is 100% sound in every aspect and needs absolutely nothing.
Just get in it, turn the key, and you're down the road, rather quickly if I do say so.
It is an XLNT all around rig for whatever you choose to do with it.
I hope that answered everyone's questions.
I tried to be as thorough in my description as I could be, but the questions went a different direction.
I hope this addresses all of you that made inquiries so far.
Thank you,

The highly-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 received Overall Vehicle Scores of five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's New Car Assessment Program, the highest possible safety rating. They are the first pickup trucks to receive a five-star rating since more rigorous safety standards were implemented in 2011, according to Autoblog. General Motors said in a written release that new technologies, ultra-high-strength steels and six standard airbags helped the automaker improve the truck's performance in crashes.

Supercharged 2015 GMC Yukon Denali sounds evil, runs 0-60 in 4.5 seconds

Sun, Dec 7 2014

Speeding along in a sports car is undoubtedly a ton of fun, but some owners need the ability to carry a lot of people and their stuff and don't want to sacrifice the ability to put the power down. The tuners over at Hennessey have that demographic covered with their growling, supercharged power kits for the GMC Yukon Denali. The upgrades come in three forms for the SUV's 6.2-liter V8: HPE550 with 557 horsepower, HPE600 with 605 hp and HPE650 with 665 hp. This video showcases the full-bore version, and this Denali can definitely hustle in a straight line. The power bump comes courtesy of a 2.9-liter supercharger, intercooler and high-flow cylinder heads to add over 200 horsepower compared to stock, and the final result is a bellowing SUV that rears up off he line to throw the driver back into the seat. The sprint to 60 miles per hour lasts just 4.5 seconds. Check out this hasty hauler in action in the video above.

2018 GMC Yukon Denali gets a sculpted new grille

Wed, May 24 2017

More than half of all GMC Yukon and Yukon XL models sold wear top-level Denali trim. That's a profitable scenario for the automaker, so, perhaps above all else, GMC needs its premium Denali series of vehicles to continue to stand out in a line of trucks and SUVs at the dealership lot. Hence, chrome, and lots of it. But for 2018, GMC is blessing the behemoth Yukon Denali with an added dose of class with a new multi-dimensional grille. "The new grille, which is flanked by HID headlamps and LED Signature Lighting, advances the design legacy established with the very first Yukon Denali in 1999," said Matt Noone, director of Global GMC Exterior Design. In addition to a sophisticated new look, the grille adds customizable cooling capabilities to the Denali range. Active shutters open when additional cooling is needed, or close to reduce aerodynamic drag when the engine isn't too warm. Further increasing the efficiency of the big brutish 'ute is a new 10-speed automatic transmission. That's two extra gears over the 2017 Yukon Denali, leading to a numerically lower final drive to help save fuel at highway speeds. Inside, Mastique Ash wood trim differentiates the 2018 model from previous years. A 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine remains standard for 2018, as do blingy 20-inch wheels with 22 inchers optional.
