The General Motors full-size SUV lineup provides a few good options when it comes to law enforcement, with the Chevy Tahoe PPV used by police agencies throughout the U.S. However, for the Royal Oman Police, the GMC Yukon is the SUV of choice, as seen in the following video.
The video in question was recently posted to the official Royal Oman Police YouTube channel, and clocks in at 3 minutes, 46 seconds. The content includes promotion of the Royal Oman Police and their various vehicles, including a fleet of GMC Yukon models.
The SUVs are seen rolling down the road in a long convoy, and appear to be equipped with a range of law-enforcement-oriented upgrades, such as a large bash bar mounted to the front end of the vehicle. We also spot the flag of Oman attached ahead of the A-pillar.
Additionally, the GMC Yukon models have a series of flashing blue lights mounted inside the grille, which are arranged around the red GMC badge. At night, we see the GMC badge illuminated by backlighting.
The GMC Yukon is one of several vehicles at the disposal of the Royal Oman Police, as the video shows.
Back here in the U.S., police agencies can opt for the Chevy Tahoe PPV. As GM Authority covered back in November, the Chevy Tahoe PPV is available with a broad range of equipment upgrades over the civilian-spec SUV – for example, the K9 unit feature in the post from November includes a Westin brush guard with headlight loops, nForce grille lights, an mPower light bar, eight rear mPower lights and black “shadow” police graphics.
The K9 unit also features a one-button K9 mode, which illuminates the exterior lights and overrides the flashing red and blue, while also opening the SUV’s rear door, allowing the K9 to exit the vehicle and apprehend the suspect.

Seeing military helmets behind the wheel of a GM vehicle reminds me of the “Business Plot”, In 1933, group of wealthy businessmen that allegedly included the heads of Chase Bank, 𝗚𝗠, Goodyear, Standard Oil, the DuPont family and Senator Prescott Bush tried to recruit Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler to lead a military coup against President FDR and install a fascist dictatorship in the United States. And yes, we’re talking about the same Prescott Bush who fathered one US President and grandfathered another one.[1]
Put your tin hat back on man. FDR was their generations Joe Biden, would have done us a favor back then
Look at a history book, we were forced into WW2…
Dubious at best. Nothing could be confirmed other than conversations being discussed. Nothing was planned or prepared. The NY Times even called it a hoax.
Why in the heck would Oman order these Yukons in black in a sunny, hot, desert, 130 degree climate? Where rain is very rare, and it’s hotter than Las Vegas and Phoenix. Crazy !
That black paint is a radiant energy absorber. Thank God or Allah for deep tint windows and air conditioning.
Bad ass black in a harsh hot desert climate is very impractacle.
Should have considered a white like Utah highway patrol.
Those ars not regular patrol vehicles. Since the early 2000s, black Yukons have been used across the Middle East as either close protection vehicles (usually in Denali trim) or by Special Forces such as those in the video. No idea why they are “preferred” over the Tahoe, but the term “Black Yukon” is infamous across the region and often associated with “elite” government agencies.

Now I see why they raised the price of oil so they could sell them all the capitalist goods back to them on the American people’s back. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. No problem, just print more worthless money and everybody gets rich till the scheme craters.
