Just bought a 2016 luxury trim with low miles. Such a comfortable model and smooth ride. The interior and build quality reminds me of my 2000 Lexus GS I use to own.
I own a 2010 Cadillac SRX since 2019 when it had 107k miles. 4 years to 147k miles since as of this writing, I only had to replace the struts and shocks along with the fuel pump, spark plugs, and crankshaft position sensor. They only costed me about $1800 in total combined. Cars can be reliable if you don't accelerate, and brake aggressively or simply don't skip oil changes when they are needed.
I love the 2017 model and a 2021 looks too boxy it does have minivan Vibes LOL I just wish the 2017 model had a better rear exhaust like they did on the 2021!
I drive GM and I also have friends that drive and complain about Ford and dodge. So I'm not attacking those brands, just commenting on what I noticed . Everyone has the right to brand loyalty so please don't take it personally. Or how about you explain what makes me WRONG so I may have a different perspective. It's good to learn something new
@@faridgadimov5955 No harm in changing the transmission fluid, front and rear diff fluid, brake fluid and flush and refill with new coolant in the radiator.
We have a 2018 ESV .Magneride is garbage. Replaced with bell tech 2-4 1/2” drop kit with shock sims. Spent $1,200 total, still rides great & got rid of “rake “ stance. Kit # 1019 strut # 25004. Magneride bypass from Xineering LLC. You won’t regret it.
I have a 2018 escalade with 22 inch wheels, I love it except the wheels are cheap and will eventually Crack. And you'll be spending 5K replacing suspension after 75,000 miles. Other than that it's pretty great
18k miles and its Fallin apart !! My 2013 navigator has 250k miles and everything still works fine i doo keep close maintenance intervals every 6 months for everything that needs maintenance even doorlocks!!! Leather seats conditioned and aren't even cracked !!! Lincoln uses tight treaded carpets that are very easy to vacume !!. And DURABLE !!!! I do it all by my self I dont trust bodyshops they must up my paint and scratch my Chrome rims !!!. My cost per 6 months is $150.00 dls (OIL FILTER,MASS AIRFLOW FILTER, QUAKER STATE ULTIMATE OIL, LUCKAS INJECTOR CLEANER TREATMENT,MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR CLEANER,. ) SPARK PLUGS I CHANGE EVERY 60K MILES WHITCH COST $10.00 DLLS EACH. AND NO 2012 NAVIGATORS HAVE BEEN UDATED TO NEW STYLE SPARKPLUGS WITCH DONT BRAKE WHEN REMOVED !!.
Wow you did not have any repair expenses for the first three years while the vehicle was under warranty absolutely incredible. I was kind of thinking you would highlight some thing when it was not in the warranty. And how much the things actually cost when they break
Yes they should have just evolved the front, not completely change it. I hope they do a facelift in the next coming years, as I would probably be able to afford one by then.
Free oil change? Maybe but when my mechanic moved on I went back to changing my own. By the time I make an appointment, drive to town and get some one to pick me up, I could have changed my oil six times. I figured out I tend to put oil changes off because they were a hassle. Now that GM engines grenade because of lifter problems, I'll change my own. I'm also considering moving on from buying Tahoes and Yukons for a TRX.
Yes I own 10 year old BMW and the 2016 Escalade. BMW likes to use plastics for their valve covers and transmission pan. They will leak after 5 years. The inline 6 from BMW are very reliable.
Lexus is more reliable.. No one will ever argue that.. the LX570 uses that 5.7 Toyota, which is know for a million miles.. But even beyond that, is the interior quality and resale value. 200K miles on the toyota will still get you close to 30K in pristine condition.. Maintenance is cheaper on the Caddy.. Gas is cheaper on the Caddy, tech is better on the caddy.. But if you want longevity, you could likely buy a LX570 and die before it wears out..
@@immitheguy Depends.. The Caddy's seats are nicer, but the lexus IMO had a better ride, that said after 100K miles the LX will get you home, where the caddy's comfy seats will be great for waiting on the tow truck.. The V8 in the GM's are notorious if equipped with the cylinder deactivation for having lifter failure and causing massive engine damage. You can circumvent that by buying the Tune kit to remove that function, but then you run the risk of premature oil pump failure. If you are looking to lease one, lease the caddy, buy the LX.
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 Spend hundreds in gas for the LX570 as well. Would likely break my bank. You can choose what you wish. The air suspension can fail on the LX570 which can be just as costly as the MagnaRide on the Cadillac. Choose which you prefer.
@@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806 i did end up buying the lexus, couldn't be happier, not a single issue yet, it is a little thirsty, but not as bad as i was expecting, averaging right around 19mpg which is fine for what it is.. No rattles, no squeaks, and the calming sensation of knowing it will last 500k troublefree miles is what makes the experience of owning it extremely satisfying.. Also, you just don't see many around.
Be aware the front struts cost $600 each and $400 possib ly in labor to change.Did mine both sides and only spent $400. They will go out magnetic ride control is not cheap.
Thank you for that.. Was interested in one, but once i learned it has Cylinder Deactivation.. I had nightmares of the Impala SS with the V8 that would deactivate over time by breaking camshafts in half.. Anyone know what year they added this terrible idea?
@@PRviewsvlogs naa.. it doesn't work like that, you can tune out the deactivation, but the camshaft and high flow oil pump are mechanical and would require an engine rebuild to correctly remove the function, there's a bunch of forums out there that describe in detail what other things are required to correctly remove this bad idea..
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 the whole reason this stupid idea causes engines to fail is cause it activates so making sure it doesn’t ever activate will eliminate a big problem .
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 so yes I said it can be deleted which was a bad choice of words , deactivate is what you wanted to see , but that is all that is need a deactivation
You said you don’t need an extended warranty, yet you have already had quite a few components replaced, and some items left un-repaired. I wouldn’t buy it without an extended warranty based on your experience. Then, you have magnetic ride suspension and other expensive components. Expensive mistake not to cover it.
When I replaced my engine 180,000 miles with a full-time v-8 engine. My gas mileage in the old engine didn't do better than 17 highway. The new engine did get 20mpg. So sorry that new technology did nothing for gas mileage.
She probably will prefer 2020 since it’s more old school with buttons and the traditional gear shifter. The new one is all screens. Did she get one yet?

i just bought a 2018 escalade ESV, to replace my 2011, so far its been great,
Thanks for the video. I'm thinking about getting an escalade..
Glad I could help!
Waste of money if you have driven the Yukon Denali.
Honestly! That is your key phrase in all the videos:)
What can I say, I’m an honest guy!!
Thank you for sharing! Best of luck
Thank you for watching!
solution to third row, make the second row a bench and remove the third row and have a big ass trunk.
The shock and struts will definitely be replaced when worn out. In case of winter, the mileage should be more then 11 mpg or something.

Forgot to mention I replaced cue my self for around $500. Only these two issues in 4yrs. Solid SUV
Seems all GM SUV this generation and previous have that rake stance. Want to level the front.
No offense but these trucks do not ride good without mag ride it’s well worth the cost

The 2021 full size SUVs from GM are horrible to look at IMHO but the interiors are breathe taking. Funny GM got it WRONG and RIGHT at the same time

Is a used worth it?
Is Cadillac better than BMW when it comes to reliability?
Yes absolutely when it comes to 5+ more years of ownership
YES, yes it is.
Yes! The car parts are cheaper than Mercedes Benz.
Yes, I have all. By far love the Caddy. 745 beamer I will never buy another.
Yes I own 10 year old BMW and the 2016 Escalade. BMW likes to use plastics for their valve covers and transmission pan. They will leak after 5 years. The inline 6 from BMW are very reliable.

Nice review.
Your Escalade is beautiful. How much is your monthly note in a 95k dollar truck?
If a car cost more than you make in a year, you can’t afford it.

I wouldn’t buy it without an extended warranty based on your experience. Then, you have magnetic ride suspension and other expensive components. Expensive mistake not to cover it.
Yes youre correct. Extended warranty should be purchased.
The shocks are not covered with the extended warranty. Its considered wear and tear part. They cost $1400 a side to replace when they leak.
So this ain’t a cost of ownership …. I miss when TH-cam had videos that were actually about what the title alludes to
My 2015 is the biggest POs. One issue after another. And final issue it spun a bearing. POs in every way
