1. Having to setup the Tire Pressure Gage everytime you rotate the tires or change them for other uses like for Winter.
2. unable to Watch DVD's while driving
3. No USB port for 2009 models for Ipods


Like:
1.Rain Sensing Wipers
2. 6.2L V8
3. HID Lights

Future Models.. I want to see the truck do Barrel rolls over other cars. Plus cook me breakfast in the morning

Re: 3 Things You LOVE and HATE about your Escalade

Hey, how did you get an extra .1 litre on your lade?

Love:

acceleration (6.2)
great ride for a large SUV
cooled seats and heated wheel

Don't really hate anything. Dislike:

cheap chrome on rims
no power tilt (fixed with later years!)
fold flat 3rd row would be nice

Re: 3 Things You LOVE and HATE about your Escalade

I don't own one, but they have the balliest and loudest factory exhaust on any car I've ever heard. Even stock Vettes aren't as loud. They just sound fantastic and its not so loud that it becomes bothersome.

Re: 3 Things You LOVE and HATE about your Escalade

i bought mine used, so a lot of my hates are a result of that

Hate:
the center console rattles a lot
the wind noise can be bad at times
the paint on mine has a lot of bad spots. hard to tell from a distance, but when i wash it, i notice them and i hate it.

Love:
engine.
the luxury of it(all the bells and whistles and what not. ex heated/cooled seats, rear ent system, navi)
painted sails and chrome...so i guess just overall looks.
