- Strong and smooth powertrain, pleasant ride, handsome cabin, versatile cargo area.
- Subpar stopping distances, large size makes it hard to park, rear blind spots, some low-grade interior plastics.

Ideal Truck for Me - 2008 Cadillac Escalade EXT
By pfromd - January 6 - 6:55 pmLove my 08 truck. It turns heads even in Texas where trucks are dime a dozen. Bought it used with 60k, driven 12k in 6 months, no complaints. Pull a boat, take it off the pavement, rinse it off, go to dinner and have it valeted in front row next to all the "me too" luxury cars. Enjoy!

Finally an American car that can - 2008 Cadillac Escalade EXT
By Gvic - September 19 - 1:03 pmFirst American car to buy, I would say impressed, but still years behind in technology from the rest of the world. It could be better if they could add basic techs stuff that cheap Japanese cars have, otherwise a fun car to drive and to look at. Hope the dealer stop calling me for extending warranty.

Class Truck Style - 2008 Cadillac Escalade EXT
By Monty - May 5 - 2:16 pmThis is the best truck that I have ever owned. The power, the ride, the look is too much! The heated seats, retracting side step, Nav, DVD all of which is very nice in a truck. Only problem that I have had is when you have the passenger air bag replaced (due to lite comming on and dealer said that it need to be replaced) they were unable to get the airbag flush with the dash. They have put 6 in and none of them will lay flush.

Forget the back seat - 2008 Cadillac Escalade EXT
By Eddie Mae - July 20 - 6:36 amWanted comfortable towing vehicle, I got that. Bed cover leaks, dealer does not tell you that, but, it is in the vehicles manual (now who reads this before buying). The back seat is useless. I am 52" and rode in the back seat for 200 miles and was never so uncomfortable! Maybe a child could, I say maybe! I am pleased with the towing ability that is great. As far as 14 mpg. I consistently get 12.5
