Nice Car -- 2003 Deville

I love driving this big highway cruiser. It is smooth, particularly on a long trip. Handling is good overall -- but not the best vehicle for tight/congested places. No major mechanical problems to date. Digital instruments look like 1980 vintage and controls are kind of low rent.

Premier Car of the GM Fleet?

What's the rest of the fleet like? Power train good (so far) but stupid stuff - like mechanical mechanism for passenger window replaced at 45000 miles, wheel bearings replaced at 48000 miles, brake sensors corroded and replaced 46000 - all out of warranty, of course. Trunk developed leak at 43000. I buy one owner-off lease vehicles with about 25000 miles on them. Drove Lincoln Continentals for 10 years, bought extended warranties - never once used them - cars each died after 175000 miles. This car would cost a mint to drive 175000 miles. Very disappointing for quality and reliability. Cadillac, you've got a long way to go to be perceived as a quality vehicle.

This car has been extremely reliable and has required minimum maintenance over the years. MPG on the highway is still 25-26 driving the speed limit of 70 mph. Great car that I'm counting on reaching 250,000 miles using Mobil 1 5W30 motor oil and changing it every 3000 miles.

After a full year of ownership, I now feel qualify to rate this outstanding motorcar. In over 15,000 miles of driving, I have NO requirement for warantee or repair work; normal scheduled maintenance is the only time I see the dealership. The car drives superbly; great acceleration, noisless operation over long highway trips and it's simply the most comfortable vehicle I've ever been inside of. My wife bought a new Lexus ES300 a month before I purchased the Cadillac. Mine is the one we choose for long trips!

1st Cadillac Ever

This is the 1st Cadillac I've ever owned, yet I didn't buy this one, I inherited from my father when he became no longer able to drive for health reasons. My wife has health issues as well with her legs and back (as I have back issues as well), this car is the easiest car to get in and out of with no pressure on our backs or legs. We have taken it on several short trips and each trip was enjoyable and comfortable. We are taking an extended vacation in July and August and are looking forward to the trip in comfort and safety.
