  Nice with style! - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By Eva - July 27 - 7:15 pm

  We bought a 2006 last summer in 2010 and since the moment I started driving this beauty I realized what Cadillac is all the fuss about. I love it. Front differential went out and could be an expensive fix. Other than that the car has 100 + miles and it drives like new.

  2nd Time Around! - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By scott - September 16 - 5:49 pm

  I consider myself a car guy and have an 02 540i black on black manual 6 speed. I love cars and research them in my spare time!?! I reluctantly leased an 04 Escalade ESV when the Chevy Suburban salesman tried to rob me! Unhappy at the time, but momma wanted it so 4 years later, we loved the truck so much we decided to buy it off lease and were heartbroken when GMC wouldnt negotiate. We looked at the Lexus and the Denali among others. Just today we bought an 06 Escalade and couldnt be happier! The others didnt have the ride, the comfort, reliability or the look! we feel like were home again!

  Fun - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By bridgit - March 2 - 6:47 pm

  My wife thoroughly enjoys this car. She always told me it was an old mans car. I would not try to take it away from her. It was the first Cadillac she ever drove. Her other car was a Lexus and Camry. She wont ever consider a Lexus now.

  2ND Time Around! - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By Transporter - June 11 - 11:21 pm

  Had a 2002 Escalade and found a great deal on new 2006 AWD that had been on the lot. Some minor changes such as XM stereo, navigation, phone from the 2002. Rides a little smoother. All in all another great SUV. Have averaged 18.5 MPG on freeway a liitle better than the 2002 which was 17.5. No one mistakes this Cadillac SUV for just another SUV.

  Not a Bad Ride - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By wilpwr - May 17 - 6:06 pm

  The 2006 Cadillac Escalade is a nice ride. It has an exceptional sound system and lots of bells and whistles. Unfortunately it requires premium fuel, ouch! But the gas milage isnt that bad. I drove nearly 180 highway miles on a 1/2 tank, mostly at 60 mph.

  I Love my "truck"! - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By hlewis - April 21 - 5:34 pm

  This car makes me feel like I am in the safest and one of the most attractive vehicles on the road. Its turning radius is amazing, considering its size. I have only owned Mercedes-Benz vehicles before this and have been pleaseanty surprized with this car. I could not find an Mercedes that I liked better than this SUV. I drive both long highway distances and short commutes with equal ease. I plan on owning my Escalade for 10 years and expect it to last well beyond that.

  Rolling in Michigan - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By Morning - December 30 - 10:46 am

  The 2006 Cadillac Escalade is a great truck. It has even more features than my DeVille. It is fun to drive and has a beautiful design. I totally enjoy the XM radio and panicked when my trial period neared its end (and I was the one who said that I never listened to the radio while driving...yeah right). OnStar occasionally gets you lost although there is the capability to record the directions. The navigation system is a must. It easily guides you to your destination. The heated seats are great on a cold winters day. I could use a few more inches of leg room for driving though. This truck is surprisingly easy to park, especially with the visual and sound alarms to prevent bumping in the rear. This is a great vehicle. It gets the respect that it deserves.

  Big and Brawny - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By Paul of Las Vegas - December 9 - 7:22 pm

  The professional reviews talk about the Esacalades dated interior, but I think they miss the point. The interior works: its practical, comfortable, and high quality. It may not match the latest BMW or Audi, but thats part of its thugish charm. I test drove a few SUVs, but most were ruled out by the lack of 7-8 seats, the poor customer service of the dealer, or looks. In the end, the only two contenders were Lincoln Navigator and Cadillac Escalade. I was surprised by the Lades driving, quality, engine performance, ride, handling, and finally, all those practical touches: from the walk-thru center seats to the Onstar cell phone. I love it - highly recommended!

  Good Ride - 2006 Cadillac Escalade
  By Tom - October 31 - 9:04 pm

  The Escalade is a great SUV. I am surprised that it does not come with rain sensitive windshield wipers however. Some SUVs that cost $20,000 less at least have that option. One of the big pluses with this vehicle is the dealer network. My dealer was great - it only took an hour and a half from the time I set foot in the door until the paperwork was all done and I was on my way. If youre looking for a large, luxury SUV that other drivers on the road respect due to its size, this ones a winner.
