The GM Authority Take
April represented the second consecutive month of decreasing Yukon sales in the U.S., a development that is both puzzling and concerning, since it comes at a time when SUVs and CUVs are in high demand. Given that the Yukon is one of GM’s most profitable vehicles, a decrease in Yukon deliveries could negatively impact GM’s earnings in the second quarter of 2017.

Comment
Not that I have a conclusion, but that’s roughly the same monthly drop-off that Escalade experienced.
Maybe May will be better? Maybe it’s typically cyclical? People waiting for 2018 models? I dunno…
