I have a 2011 with about 60k miles on it. It's an LT. Not going to lie, it hasn't lived up to the price tag. I had the cracked dash (which was replaced under warranty). I've had a few things go out wayyyy too early (changing a daytime running lamp is a BITCH). I've got the paint coming off the buttons for the AC and radio. Good bit a rattling. And we treat the vehicle pretty well. I'm not surprised to see the price around there when a new one is going to cost you 50k, but I think I'm shying away from them for my next purchase (even if they have updated). And I've always driven chevy.

Thanks for the input. I know that we want a full size SUV that we can use for towing a camper/boat in the future. The wife likes the GM ones but I'm open to any. I'm a Toyota guy (we both have 4runners right now: a 2002 and 2004). I wouldn't mind a Sequoia or even a Nissan Armada.

In-laws just bought a certified 2013 Yukon XL Denali with 42k miles a couple months ago. It just spent 4 days at the dealer due to half the electronics just stopping working. They're good looking vehicles, but I'd shy away from them just based off that and stuff I've read from you and others. Also, a friend of theirs 2012 Yukon XL apparently caught on fire due to some faulty electronics. That kind of stuff is scary considering they have them to move small children.

The Expedition is lacking in features comparatively, but you don't see as many of those kinds of stories (but they also sell way less of them, so have to take that with a grain of salt).
