Overview & Reviews
Despite brisk sales of the Escalade in 2002, there are numerous upgrades for 2003 to keep the luxury sport-ute at the top of its game. An improved StabiliTrak stability control system is now standard on both two- and all-wheel-drive models, while all Escalades get an improved braking system, High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlights, exterior mirrors with integrated turn signals and chrome wheels as an option. The interior has also been updated with new features like tri-zone climate control, satellite steering wheel controls and a redesigned instrument cluster and center console. The standard Bose audio system received some minor upgrades while new options include XM Satellite Radio, a DVD entertainment system and second-row captain's chairs. Added safety comes in the way of dual-stage airbags, adjustable pedals, a front-passenger seat sensor and three-point belts for all first- and second-row passengers.
- Vigorous power plant, best-in-class towing capacity, handles well for a large SUV.
- Poor mileage, must pay the premium for all-wheel drive to get the big engine.

The Best "Period" - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By Goldie Girl - February 11 - 2:00 amI owned a Navigator until it was rear- ended by a truck and totalled(I was able to walk away). What to now purchase? My only choice after driving all the "beasts" was the ESCALADE. I no longer call it a beast, it is beautiful, a pleasure to drive, heated seats, DVD and the leather, what a "dream" SUV. I can recommend this vehicle 100%.

In shop more than driveway - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By SUV Guy - January 28 - 2:00 amReceived the Escalade a couple weeks ago and it has been one problem after another. Mostly Electrical issues, but now the engine is making unusual noises. I had a Navigator, but traded in. Wish I had not. I think Im going back to the Navigator.

POWWWEERRRR - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By thacaddydaddy - January 3 - 2:00 amThis is THE BEST suv out there. We tried the h2 but it was so underpowered. Now this beast is far from underpowered. Even the 2WD model is a little speedy, but if you want a FAST and POWERFUL suv and you dont wanna pay for a euro $60,000 sport ute that cant tow, THIS IS THE ONE. TRUST ME.

Simply Awesome!!!! - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By dilham3 - December 20 - 2:00 amI have owned my Escalade for three weeks and must say i have never been happier with a vehicle. The look is sharp and the engine is so dang powerful its scary. The room inside is very plentiful and the controls are all right there for the grabing. I must say I now look for places to drive (far away) just so i can be in my Escalade.

bset of the big SUV - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By grl - December 16 - 2:00 amI have driven every big SUV out there, and this caddy is the best ride of all. It has plenty of power, and has a very "car like" ride If you are spending north of 50K , you can afford the gas it guzzles

Bad to the Bone - 2003 Cadillac Escalade
By Mongoose45 - December 10 - 2:00 amI traded a BMW X-5 on the Cadillac Escalade and it is one of my best decisions ever. The Escalade is a far superior vehicle. It rides so much better that it is not even close. Much more interior room, better looking interior, better exterior styling. I put 24 inch wheels on it and it is truly "Bad to the Bone". The Onstar system is fabulous. I highly recommend this vehicle for those who love luxury. Cadillac did it right!
