This Year's Model Updates:

Although the Escalade remains basically unchanged, there are a few upgrades to the standard equipment list and how some optional equipment can be configured. XM Satellite Radio, a tire-pressure monitoring system, second-row bucket seats and a tow package are all now standard equipment, while a sunroof can now be ordered in conjunction with the rear-seat DVD entertainment system. Blue Chip, Quicksilver and Red E are new exterior colors.

Pros:
  • Endless power from V8, plush ride quality, feels nimble around turns, comfortable seats, plenty of cargo capacity, all the latest technological gadgets, best-in-class towing capacity.
Cons:
  • Poor mileage, a few noticeable instances of cost cutting, must pay a premium to get the big engine.

  • Best car on the road!! - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    This is a great vehicle I wouldnt trade it for ANYTHING else but the same thing new!!

  • Outstanding SUV - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    This Escalade is nothing short of an outstanding vehicle. If you are looking for command presence, curb appeal, and attitude that works in all weather conditions, look no further. Pros: -Excellent V8 engine that snarls when you put your foot down and has no trouble smoking most vehicles on the road. -Handles well -Good sound system Cons: -The interior build quality is a real black eye. They dropped the ball on this one. -Some replacement parts are pricey -Electronics build quality is also a little spotty

  • Gonna take it to 250k! - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    We love this truck! Keep in mind it is just that...a full size truck, just all dressed up. We bought it used with 76K and in 1 year we have already crossed 100K, and not a flicker. I am a huge fan of this GMC line up. The ride, power and class is second to none. We plan to go 250k miles before we upgrade to another. This is the best family vehicle! Lots of power, comfort and class. Buy one and you will see why most Escalade owners go for a second.

  • Escalade is Awesome Vehicle - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    I am a Real Estate business owner and I am out and about a lot. I love all my Cadillacs but the Escalade is my all time favorite. The turning radius is suburb, the comfort for my clients is outstanding and the safety they feel is superior. I will buy another!!!! The entire team at the dealership has always been the BEST!

  • EXCELLENT SUV /More than Happy Consumer - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    This car rides and controls well, even in times where quick thinking and handling became a necessity. The look catches the eye of many - the upgrades make my vehicle more attractive than it already is - the drive is smooth and quite. There has never been a more luxurious car Ive owned all across the board. Signed, One More than Satisfied Consumer

  • A "Truck" underneath the Glamour - 2004 Cadillac Escalade
    By -

    I purchased my 2004 Escalade with the 6.0 liter in February. It was certified and came with the extended factory bumper to bumper 6yr/100k warranty. I hear about people complaining about its fuel economy, but you must realize that behind all the chrome and flash that this is still a 5700 lb truck with a 6 liter V8. I use to get about 17 mpg on the highway, but I have installed a K&N filter($50) and a custom Flowmaster exhaust system($450), and now I get between 20-21 mpg with premium(93 octane) gas on the highway cruising at 70 mph, with 22" wheels. If fuel consumption is a worry for you, then simply dont buy an suv. But this truck is absolutely awesome, especially on long 200+ mile trips.
