That’s not a 2006 model, it's a 2005 model. The reason is the Yukon does not have the rear plastic brakelamp valance that was equipped on the 2006 models. I provided a picture of a 2006 model. The brakelamp valance is shown inside the Yellow squares. ![[Image: dscn2298bs0.th.jpg]](http://img518.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dscn2298bs0.jpg "http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/73/dscn2298bs0.th.jpg") |

Are you sure that valance isn't an optional extra? |

Yes, it came standard on all 2006 models, all trim levels. The Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban had them as did the GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Yukon Denali and Yukon XL Denali. -- Last edit: 2007-10-02 01:37:18 (G-MANN) |

I always wonder with The Sopranos is the episodes were filmed in the year they were transmitted or the year before. Series 6 began in the US in March 2006. |

After driving various stylish, understated Cadillac Sevilles, the family Consigliere Silvio Dante (Steven Van Zandt) finally plumps for a dirty great SUV. The Seville suited his character better. |

Mabey he bought it to impress Tony, who seems to have a passion for SUV's. Tony has owned nothing but SUV's in the whole series. He's had a Chevy Suburban and two Cadillac Escalades. He bought a Porsche Cayenne Turbo for Carmela and a Nissan Xterra for AJ. Or prehaps Silvio needed a SUV. He has a family (wife and kids, not the maffia term), and i bet GMC Yukons are great family cars. -- Last edit: 2007-10-02 01:37:10 (G-MANN) |

Real, "Truck Platform" based SUV’s are only for a select breed of people (those who actually need them, and use them accordingly) I am one of those people. However the only reason I can think of, as to why characters in a TV-Series or Movie would use a "Truck Platform" based SUV is quite simply just Product Placement. Tony drives what Tony is given, If the producers of the show want people to see Tony drive a Toyota Prius Hybrid, that is what Tony drives. Although a large SUV would certainly complement a large family, and would probably make more sense on the show. -- Last edit: 2007-10-02 01:36:56 (G-MANN) |

Tony only has a wife and two kids and he never goes offroad. I'm not sure why he drove a Chevrolet Surburban in the first 4 seasons (at one point he says "why did I buy an offroad vehicle?"), a lot of the other gangsters have Cadillacs and Lincolns, the Suburban isn't a very glamourous car, I think the Escalade he gets in series 5 is a better fit for a mob boss, big, intimidating and flashy. |
