This is my third Escalade. Hybrid is very quiet. The 2007 was really loud. Very smooth acceleration. Ride is 75% better than 2007 vehicle. The bluetooth is great to have although should have been available on the 2007. Hybrid gets 18-19 on average which for me is acceptable. Love the vehicle. Do not drive like a full size sport utility. Best large SUV on the road. Have driven it 4K miles. Flawless.

Had it for a week. My wife's vehicle. She Loves it. Tim, the owner of the Dealership, explained and oriented the vehicle for 45 minutes with my wife. She was very Impressed with the vehicle and the time put in to explain everything by Tim. We traded a Lexus LX-470 in on it. Got tired of 12.8 mpg and Premium Gas prices. The Cadillac gets 23-25 mpg in real world setting and uses regular gas. The build quality is equal to Lexus. Finally, Hats off to an American Vehicles

Better Mileage than my Wife's Escalade

It doesn't get 20MPG but how many cars get the EPA rated mileage? I am getting 15 around town and 17 on the highway. My wife has a 2008 Escalade ESV (not a hybrid) that gets about 12 around town and 16 on the highway. At 2000 miles per month, I figure I will save about $100 at $2.50/gallon. I do have more things that can go wrong but that is why I bought an extended warranty although it doesn't cover everything. The tire sensors (did not work which the dealer was suppose to fix and didn't) which the tire shop indicated they go bad after 8-10 years. The big trim piece in front of the dash is broken, the upholster is messed up on the console lid and the back seat but that has more to do with the last owner than the car itself. It does have wind noise around the driver's window and a few rattles but overall, I am satisfied. It is not a new vehicle. It does still have about half of its life left but cost me about 20% of the cost of a new one.

The Big Sipper

It ain't a Prius, but I am getting much better city mileage than in my previous CX-9. I have been pleasantly surprised that I have not given up much in terms of acceleration but gained so much in luxury, comfort and space. The legend is (not from the dealer but my research) that this is one of the "bail- out mobiles" driven from Detroit by the GM execs that were blasted for flying the private jets. A bunch of them came off lease and I got this for $11k-$13k below retail (according to Edmunds and KBB). Looks a lot better once I got all the blasted "Hybrid" decals off. We are in love with the Big Sipper.

It is pretty SUV with a nice drive. I love the hybrid. The driver can not listen to CD player when the children using the DVD? The Bluetooth system is not very good. It does not pull up contact list, does not allow you to use the car keypad number, and there is difficulty pairing the 3G i Phone from apple
