2004 Cadillac Escalade ESV AWD 4dr SUV (6.0L 8cyl 4A)

Review

This is the ultimate SUV, if your looking for class and style, while not having to compromise saftey or comfort this is the way to go. Sure you may pay a bit more, however you get a lot more. And you truely get what you pay for. The ride is second to none, and the performance is that of a mid size SUV, I highly reccomend this vehicle to anyone that is looking to experience the true full size class and luxury, that everyone should experience.

Favorite Features

The autoride, and the complete steering wheel controls make this do exactly what you would want, while offering you the sound of the Bose radio system.

Suggested Improvements

The only thing I would add is auto folding rear seats, like the Navigator. Otherwise it needs nothing. Maybe front park assist to correspond with the rear's.

Cadillac of SUVs

Review

This is one outstanding vehicles. It has the comfort and refinement that you'd expect from a premium SUV, but is also rugged and can handle agressive towing and off-road manuvers. We just returned from a long road trip and it was like staying at a 5 star hotel with wheels. The HVAC system is great. The entertainment system was a big hit with the kids (big & little), and the XM satellite radio keeps you entertained even where there is little or no AM/FM signal. The navigation system and OnStar are outstanding. Take it from us, there is no reason to buy an import as this SUV represents world class comfort and world class quality. We love this vehicle!

Favorite Features

Navigation system XM Satellite Radio Entertainment system Back-up warning system Turn signal lights on side mirrors (cooool) Bold styling Special towing setting for transmission Rear heated seats

Review

We just drove from Thomasville,Ga to Long Beach,CA and back. We were officials at the Olympic Swim Trials. We had to take a lot of stuff as we made several stops on the way and back. The gas millage was acceptable. We have the navigation sytem, satellite radio, DVD and TV. It was like riding in a 5 star hotel by day. We love it.

Favorite Features

Back up warning, seats, navigation sytem, satellite radio and TV

Suggested Improvements

We love to have night vison added.

Review

Never have I seen an SUV with as many practical and functional features as this one. Adjustable pedals, curbside assist mirrors when backing (select both or either one). The ride is by far better than most any luxury car that I have had the opportunity to ride in. You have plenty of "pick-up" when you hit the gas and it cruises and corners like it's on rails. I'm highly satisfied.

Favorite Features

Automatic driver settings recall includes, seat position, radio, mirror and more. Sunroof with shield that pops up to buffer wind. XM radio and Onstar a real plus!

Suggested Improvements

None

Review

Expensive but worth it. Feels safe as a vault, handles like a much smaller vehicle and has performance plus. Wonderful on long trips. Traded a 2002 Escalade AWD in for this one and the 2004 seems much improved. Seems to hold resale value well.

Favorite Features

Ride quality, acceleration, quiet, handling, tech additions (XM radio, nav system, OnStar, stability control, park assist)

Suggested Improvements

Poor placement of parking break. Needs storage compartments particularly under floor of rear luggage area. Rear headrests could be easier to lower.

Review

The 2003 Escalade ESV is my family room on wheels. With an DVD player and 4 wirelsss headphones, our large family can travel in comfort over long trips. The acceleration in this large SUV is impressive). I am able to travel up steep grades with absolutely no feeling of engine struggle or hesitation. The brakes are also very effective. I have little difficulty maneuvering it, especially with the help of the park assist feature. Overall, this is a wonderful luxury SUV with all the desireable amenities.

Favorite Features

Comfortable seats, powerful acceleration and braking, stereo, XM radio, personal calling through On- Star, large rear storage area, heated seats, raised rear row of seats.

Suggested Improvements

Rear seat a split-fold for increased storage options; add lock to glove box and center console; add seat memory function for front passenger seats; put a telephone keypad on dashboard; upgrade materials for dashboard
