Hello Everyone - Just got a 2005 Escalade AWD. I traded in my 2001 MB C240. Needed an upgrade and larger vehicle. Just want to say hello to all!

Welcome to the forum. We are all customization experts
Thanks all. The Escalade rides much better than the C240. I got the Silver exterior with Pewter interior. Came with the package that includes, DVD nav, sunroof, chrome 17's. I did not get the roof mounted DVD player. Since I got the 2nd row captain chairs, I was thinking of getting the headrest DVD player/monitors.
I also test drove a Hummer H2 and H3 the same day as the Escalade. I was surprised that the H2 drive as nice as the Escalade. Was not too thrilled with the H3. It came down to practicality and decided on the Escalade.
New wheels/tires might be in the future also - I would like to keep the stock tire pressure monitors, but I dont know how important that really is since I check them myself ona regular basis anyways. I set of forged wheels would be nice!

2005 Escalade quote. Is this fair or am I being taken?
Cadillac Escalade, EXT and ESV Forum - 1999 - 2006The car has been making noises while on idle and after a turn it would get stuck on a sound that was like a raving noise. Diagnosis was the following items were done and needed replacement. I don't feel these prices are fair . What do you think? Alternator replacement including belt change $535...- 6
