Pros:
  • Endless V8 power, plush ride quality, more nimble than you might think, 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.

    I replaced a 2002 Yukon Denali xl with a 2004 Esclade ESV ( GM pull ahead made me a deal I couldnt refuse). I considered getting another Denali but I heard the suspension on the Esclade was better than the Denali. It truly is even better than my Denali. The car cruises beautifully on the highway for long hauls, it carries my kids and dogs all together. The climate control is great for such a big vehicle. I am very very happy and will hold this one until they come out with the redesign in 2007.

    Excellent quality in workmanship and feel. Drives like a dream with the best adjustable seats that I have seen. The power is excellent and when entering a freeway ramp I love to hit the passing gear... lots of people stare as the acceleration is not what they expected from this size vehicle. This is my second Escalade and I think it is the best SUV for the money available.

    I put 7500 miles on it this summer when we took a drive from California to Pennsylvania. It is a wonderful vehicle to travel in. I also tow a jeep wrangler with the Escalade, its easy to forget you are towing anything. If you are looking for an SUV and want the very best, by an Escalade.
