it does everything better than an H3 on the Highway, as far as handling is concerned.
But the same can be said for the Denali and the H2, the regular Yukon, a pickup, the Expedition, Excursion, and most other truck based vehicles.

paragon, I'd like to understand what you mean. Could you give some examples of your expectations of good handling on the highway? Or maybe a few situations where the driving characteristics of the other trucks is superior to the H3? Personal experience or objective reports would be great.

I didn't say the other trucks were superior to the H3. I said that the Denali was superior to most truck based vehicles in the handling department.
That's from vast experience. I've owned one since 2001 and have driven nearly all of the other vehicles. Get your heads out of your collective asses. The Denali is made for the road, period. It's Ok for it to drive better.

Re: Salutations - suggestions sought
I owned a pre-2001 Denali and still think it's a better vehicle for the road, but that's also where it needs to stay. It's not an offroad vehicle.

Re: Salutations - suggestions sought
My Yukon Denali drove like mush. The worst driving experience I've ever had in a truck. My ex's Envoy Denali, however, was much better.

I appreciate that you have personal experience with driving a Yukon Denali. Could you elaborate on the specific aspects of its highway handling which are better than the H3? This is an honest question. I've never driven a Denali and I am curious about your opinion.

Are you just normally dumb are you simply trying to argue again?
I didn't mention the H3 in the second sentence. I compared the Denali to most other truck based vehicles. You can't even reach to come to any other conclusion.

No.
I have no desire now, nor ever to waste time in attempt to validate anything to, most especially you. My opinion is what it is. Should you not believe it, fine. I really don't give 2 sh!ts because the effect my opinion has on you raises about as much concern to me as an ant fart.

It's the same old story. You jump on a thread, make fun of someone's opinion or choice of words, do something ridiculous - like define it for him in umpteen languages - to show how educated you are, state high-minded opinions you don't support and then refuse to answer legitimate questions about it ... as if you're above all this mundane chatter. But all you really are in the end is an arrogant, hypocritical troll.
Your health condition isn't your fault, but your attitude and behavior is. You're a smart guy ... so share what you know about wheeling and mechanics, take pride in helping someone out, offer people some encouragement, enjoy their passion for hummers, and for god's sake don't take yourself so seriously.
You have a lot you could offer this forum, and there's a lot you could be learning. Don't waste your intelligence and experience on worthless insults and negativity. Life's too short. The people who know you seem to respect you ... give the rest of us a reason to.
