I think I'm going to barf

GM's new Yukon hybrid gets just 20/20 mpg, AND costs $50,000-52,000! That's a $14,000 premium over the base Yukon, more than the cost of a Yaris.

Those idiot GM product planners could have used 4.3 liter engines (or even the 2.9 liter fours) and gotten 25 mpg in a full size SUV ..........but they wimped out. It would have been a publicity coup.

And the price is simply incredible. For this kind of money, GM should be offering a Yukon Hybrid Diesel that gets 30!

GM looks idiotic with this offering. I had much higher hopes for this vehicle. It's no wonder Toyota is eating GM's lunch.
