This increases engine efficiency, horsepower, and torque while far less gasoline is wasted. The V8 engine is sized at 5.3 liters and offers a whopping 355 horsepower. Exterior The front face of the GMC Yukon is a unique appearance you won't soon forget. The front lights are inward-facing Cs that border the stylized grille. The GMC logo is the focal point of the vehicle. The body features streamlined curves that make it stand out in the crowd. The large build of the body gives off an intimidating energy that demands respect on the road. Interior The cabin boasts all you'll need to keep you and your passengers comfortable and entertained no matter how long the trip is. The tri-zone auto climate control means you can have separate temperatures for the driver, front passenger, and backseat passengers. The premium perforated leather seating is both comfortable and easy to clean. The second and third rows are 60-40 split benches that can be folded down for even more cargo space. New/Unique Features of the Year Technology The Yukon's updated infotainment center includes nine high-quality Bose speakers surrounding all cabin occupants. The voice recognition software has been upgraded for more accuracy and faster response times, and the 10.2-inch premium screen has Google built into it. The newest GMC also has several updated mechanics that will increase confidence behind the wheel and keep things under your control. Not only is there auto emergency braking, but the Yukon also boasts Hill Start Assist, Trailer Sway Control, and StabiliTrak systems. Safety The onboard GMC Pro Safety Plus system is an umbrella program that employs several other safety programs under its control. It includes helpful assistance features like Lane Keep Assist, Lane Departure Warning, and Lane Change Alert with Blind Spot Detection. These help you stay in your intended lane and only leave when it's safe to do so. You are covered from all sides thanks to programs like the Forward Collision Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Front/Rear Park Assist. The Pedestrian Automatic Braking and IntelliBeam headlights will grant you ample visibility and warn you if there's something you may have missed on the road ahead. These are the features we're most excited about, but there are many admirable traits the newest Yukon possesses. Thanks to our Shop-Click-Drive program, you can even shop for your next vehicle right from the comfort of your home.

Buick in the Movies - Casa Buick GMC Blog

Buick in the Movies

Moviemakers love Buicks, as models from our premium car brand have appeared in almost every genre of film across the decades. From love stories to horror flicks, from gangster dramas to animated films for kids, we have indelible memories of Buick’s onscreen moments. Here are a handful of our favorites. La La Land La La Land (2016) opens with a Los Angeles highway traffic jam that sees Ryan Gosling’s Sebastian in a 1982 Buick Riviera, a car with loads of character in a sea of bland Toyota Priuses. The Riviera reflects the personality of its owner as Sebastian loudly honks its horn whenever he arrives to pick up Mia (Emma Stone), annoying her dull roommates and neighbors. Rain Man In the 1988 Oscar winner, Rain Man, Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) sets out on a cross-country road trip with his brother, Raymond (Dustin Hoffman), who has autism, after their father passes away and leaves Charlie to inherit his 1949 Buick Roadmaster convertible. It’s the first time the brothers have ever met each other, and the road trip allows them to get to know one another. The Departed Another Oscar-winning film that prominently features a Buick Roadmaster, is Martin Scorsese’s 2006 The Departed, a drama that focuses on the inner workings of a Boston crime syndicate. Throughout the movie, Jack Nicholson’s mob boss Frank Costello gets driven around in a maroon-colored 1994 Roadmaster. Buicks have made appearances in other gangster movies, such as The Road to Perdition (2002) and The Untouchables (1987). Inside Llewyn Davis Oscar Isaac plays a wandering folk singer in Inside Llewyn Davis (2013), and, for part of the film, he rides with two other musicians from New York City to Chicago in a 1961 Buick Electra 225. As Davis, a beat poet (Garret Hedlund), and a jazz musician (John Goodman) make their way, they argue and encounter obstacles in this dark Coen Brothers comedy. Cars In Pixar’s 2006 Cars, main villain Chick Hicks is modeled after a 1980s Buick Regal. They both feature strong, squared-off edges, a short trunk, an overall boxy appearance (and loads of character, naturally!) Buick has made a name for itself on the silver screen. For a great deal on a premium vehicle with leading character good looks and features, visit Casa Buick GMC today.  We’re your destination in the Fort Bliss, Cloudcroft, and the El Paso areas for Buick and GMC vehicles.

Our Favorite El Paso Eats - Casa Buick Blog

Our Favorite El Paso Eats

Looking for a great place to grab a bite this holiday season? Luckily for us, El Paso is loaded with delicious options for food to keep you fueled for those last-minute shopping trips. Why go to a national chain when there are so many local, independent, or regional choices with a rustic vibe or home-spun charm to go along with a quick and appetizing meal? Casa Buick GMC has a list of such much-loved favorites certain to have your mouth watering. more The Charcoaler Drive In Restaurant is an authentic El Paso burger landmark known for its charcoal grilled (of course!) burgers and onion rings. This burger shack is conveniently located at 5837 North Mesa Street and boasts a traditional drive-in that brings you great food to the comfort of your car. The Charcoaler simply oozes 1950s rock ‘n’ roll cool. First-timers may try their original cheeseburger with their special hickory sauce, onions, and pickles. It’s not a high-end gourmet burger joint but a vintage, feel-good old El Paso classic! This drive-thru even has its own line of merch. We’re in Texas so no list is complete without BBQ! Our local favorite is Desert Oak Barbecue. A more recent addition to the El Paso food scene, Desert Oak opened in 2015 and rapidly became a local favorite. What makes it special? As the name suggests, Desert Oak is fueled by oak sourced from central Texas, cooked with a steady heat, using only prime beef. The result is some of the best barbecue we’ve tasted and we think you’ll agree. You’ll find them on 1320 North Zaragosa. Tony's Burrito House & Mexican Food has excellent Mexican food at very good prices. This drive-thru at 1410 Vanderbilt Drive features food that tastes like it was made by your abuela. Really! Service is relaxed so the restaurant is better suited when you want a quick meal instead of fast food, but those extra few minutes are well worth the wait. Try the enchiladas with rice and beans. For heavenly, foodie aromas, the quaint dining room is the spot when you have a few extra minutes. Family-owned and locally operated, Carnitas Queretaro has four locations for fresh and authentic Mexican cuisine to go. The small chain sources local products to create dishes developed from original Bordier family recipes. While it has served handcrafted dishes to El Paso for two decades, the family opened its first eatery in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico in 1985. After your quick and delicious holiday meal, you’ll have plenty of time to come see the experts at Casa Buick GMC! We’re your destination in the Fort Bliss, Cloudcroft, and the El Paso areas for Buick and GMC vehicles.
