Cant believe I bought a GM product
I owned 2 GM products in the late 80s and early 90s that had to be bought back through Better business bureau arbitration. After Driving for the past 1o years Range Rover, Lexus, Toyota Supra, Porsche, and Acura I needed to trade my 99 Acura 3.5 RL for something that can tow a jetski.(cried when I traded the 3.5RL) It was between Landrover Discovery and Escalade EXT. Chose the EXT over Discovery on all levels. The interior trim is totally GM cheesy with more fake woodgrain than you can shake a paint can at. Pricing on Diamond White with Sunroof MSRP 52K and change. Negotiated 11K off of MSRP for total of about 4K under invoice. Im satisfied.
Over the top
If you drive it, you will want it.
Just little probs....
The Ext is great, but it does have it's problems. The knobs on the midgate window support (when folding down the back seats) are prone to break off, leaving your glass "less than secure" while hauling. The power windows sometimes seem to work harder than necessary (mine was on the front pass. side). The locking mechanism on the embedded side boxes have failed on both sides, never staying quite locked, and will blow open at highway speeds(however, I've only experienced this while riding without the cargo securing sections on the truck). The leather is nice, but the carpeting is 2nd grade. Drivers side control for outside power mirrors is "jinky" for lack of precise movement
o.k. truck for lots of dough
own a new toy tundra limited, my father bought the caddy. The caddy has good accelaration and corners well for such a big truck, but ride and smoothness equal to my tundra.Caddy has been in the shop 5 times already tundra ZERO!He wanted to buy a lincoln blackwood at first but since it does not have 4wd and i told him to stay away he bought the caddy. he likes the caddy very much so much that his new audi S8 sits and collects dust.
Praise Worthy and Practical
Excellent sport truck performance plus the features of a luxury 4 door, though not usually a fan of the traditional American-take on large luxury vehicles; All Wheel Drive that is not available in the 2-wheel drive only Lincoln Blackwood was a big plus. Competitive pricing when you compare it to the Lincoln Blackwood or even the Ford Harley SuperCrew which don't offer the same high level of standard luxury equipment nor the increased true truck versatility like that offered by the EXT.
