This is the type of owner review I expected. I know the Tahoe and Yukon usually go 200k plus easy, but I still hear some mixed reviews on the escalade reliability so I wasn't sure. But the engine are all similar so I never understood why they say escalade long term reliability is spotty. I'm looking to purchase one as a next vehicle.

I will always own a Escalade. I've had many cars from Corvettes, Hellcats, Trucks, Lexus, BMW. The Escalade is my ultimate favorite of all of them. I currently have a 2018 Escalade ESV I've had for 4 years now and no issues at all. In a couple years I'll upgrade to the new generation.

If all goes according to plan I may be coming home with a black 2011 Escalade tomorrow. Absolutely gorgeous vehicle, and I’m in love with the particular era of body style. My last car was a beautiful fully loaded 2013 XTS I inherited when my best friend died and fell head over heels in love with Cadillac. Before the XTS I drove a 305 V8 ‘91 Firebird Formula so imagine that change in comfort level 😂😂. If I’ve got any say in it I’ll drive a Cadillac until I die. Really hoping this one works out tomorrow. Great review, thanks. Got me pumped!!

The other Escalades, Lux & Platinum ESVs, Tahoe LTZ, Avalanche. and Yukon XL Denali (all 07-14 gen) looked brand new underneath in comparison and obviously well maintained and it really sucked because the Premium was Blk/Blk with the rare LED headlights!

But after warranty 2 batteries, rubber molding on doors,-too much air noise on hwy (expensive)., water leaking from the sunroof, sunroof frame was bent (expensive), left headlight assembly (expensive), etc. and now after 100k, spent about $4k to Change all 4 shocks, radiator service, various fluids, etc. did the big service because dealership gave 10% off which came to $400. I think all together over the years warranty paid for $8k and I paid around $12K. Cost of owning a Slade 😁. Unless, you lease, I was tired of paying lease payments, I used to lease all my cars. Of course tire replacement. My car is maintained by dealership on time and every time. Very well maintained. I still recommend this car for the comfortable ride and power.

Best driver position ever , even better than Escalade which i found seat less comfortable than Range Rover ... but i just tried 2 of them , will continue .. since am looking to buy one ...

I can agree with all that. I've got an 08, coming up on 120k, and I bought it at 20k, corporate lease return in 2010 for $30,000. In the 100k that I've put on it, GM warranted the brakes in front at 45k, rotors warped, and I replaced the pads at 80k, and rotors and pads at 100k, and.......that's it. I cut the trans service in half (instead of 100k fluid change, 50k, oil change in the engine at 3000 miles, way more than recommended, but clean oil isn't hurting anything.). At 120k, steering is getting a bit loose, definitely not new any more, and the shocks need replacing now too. Since they're electronic, they're going to cost a bit, but I'm researching things, maybe I can take them apart and rebuild them or something. Anyway, I'd buy another, and I'd hop on it right now without even checking the oil and drive across the country.

@corndog6700

Anyhow, I'm about to drop the suspension out of the front and being a Cadillac GM product, parts are cheap (the front rotors were $105 ea.), and since the parts are inexpensive, I'll change everything out. Oh, I believe it needs motor mounts, too. They're pretty soft.

I think good maintenance is the key to keep it running in good condition.

As both a 2008 & 2015 Escalade owner, I can assure you that the taillights on this 2011 review are aftermarket swap outs, not factory in any way. These huge linear LED taillights did not come out until 2015 with the new/current body style update. I wish this truck had the original factory taillights (or that the reviewer knew the difference & chose one with the factory setup) as that is the only way this truck is a fair representation of a 2011 previous gen Sclade.

That's not a Premium, the Premium received body color front grille, body color fender vents, body color door handles, Unique front bumper and grill only found on Premium and Platinum models. Premium also received OEM Smoked LED Tail lights and CHMSL. What you have there is a base model or Escalade Luxury.

I have an ‘04 Suburban with 193k miles and I have often wondered if it would be worth it to upgrade to a ‘06-‘14 Escalade for the ride quality and bigger engine. I don’t believe the Escalade had cylinder deactivation those years either like other GM trucks which I like a lot

The Escalade is the safest, still a bargain, has the least amount of electronics, wastes the most gas. Idk if you can afford the gas I would get it. Get the 1 with the captains chairs in the back though haha. Equus or Escalade for me because Equus is a massive bargain. If you want a truck, go for the Escalade. If you want a car maybe the Equus?

I know this is old, but the Equus is the least reliable by far with its GDI engine and air suspension issues. The escalades pre 2010 are more reliable than newer ones in general because of the lack of electronics and they didn't get AFM until the 2010 model. The 460 is almost completely bullet proof, the air suspension will fail eventually, usually around 100-150k miles, but other than that nothing is known to have many issues.

That's barely broken in. I've seen 4th gens with nearly 200k already and they still run great.

Fuel economy is fine on this a 2007 cadillac escalade ext awd have a 31 gallon fuel tank get the long range. From a 2001 nissan xterra 4x4 have a 19.4 gallon fuel tank get the short range. Used to drive those truck from schiller park to Elmhurst. Those 2 truck get a same mpg. Gas mileage is fine. Better gas mileage that chevy express 4500 starcraft school bus have 6.0 vortec gas engine a 5.7 mpg is my work vehicles. Go for cadillac escalade with better mileage V8 like 12 city 18 highway of nissan xterra 14 City 17 highway have a V6 engine get mileage like a V8

Anyone in the comments have or had a hybrid one?

Yea I know I appreciate the 5.3 it's still a V8 it's just nice to have the extra power for such a large vehicle good on GM for keeping V8s alive

@@MeynMotorGroup right! Not only that those twin turbo 6v's not get better fuel mileage. They're still v6's and i4's at the core. You are asking those small engines to do the job as a big V8 that's why they're higher maintenance plus more things to break on them

Yup that's very true they def wont last like a bigger block motor and sure some of those cars are quick but they sound like vacuum cleaners. This cadillac wasnt fast but man was it fun and I bet your truck is too sound is far more important that whatever the speedometer shows you

Gas mileage is fine on this a 2011 cadillac escalade

Who doesn't believe that Kevin wouldn't have at least 500k+ subscribers to his channel if he did mostly Cadillac vehicles including those Cadillac vehicles from the early 80s and 90s? Seriously Kevin. Great video by the way. Just kidding about the Cadillac b_llshit by the way.

Its not a car people! Its a truck! Or otherwise labeled an "SUV"

Damn the 3rd row sucks ass. Navigator 3rd row is way superior cuz if IRS. I guess I'll keep my NAV.

My 13 Escalade has way more room than this one because I have the ESV extended wheelbase version it has more second row third row and cargo space

This is an all-wheel drive vehicle and not a true truck style four wheel drive system with a low range.

It looks cheap. Really, really, cheap. Like, everything -- all over. LOL

This is an era from where GM made junk v8 motors. All their garbage with AFM and cylinder deactivation, they blow motors like crazy and have issues like no tomorrow. Should've mentioned that in your review.

Burns oil but the fix is just replacing the left head cover. Cheapest way or Deactivate AFM system. Expensive way Just check the oil just like the old 350 iron blocks burns oil like crazy but where bulletproof engines that never died.

The only generation that didn't age well
