You sold me on the vacuum.
Your wife represents 99% of the female drivers. Make it nice inside and simple to operate. Thanks to her for participating! We need more of her on videos to correct all of our masculine overreach 😂.
Your wife did an amazing job being in the video. It’s nice to get a genuine feedback on what she thinks of a vehicle.
Everything makes so much more sense when she explains it. Lol
Your wife did a wonderful job describing the pros and cons of the Escalade, and why she chose the Yukon. She was a good sport about the whole thing and how she'd go back to driving a minivan in a heartbeat. Good stuff!
I’m with the lady on this one. That center tablet screen with control functions would drive me nuts! Also, as an aside, it is unlawful to fiddle around with your Cel phone or tablet while driving , but now, manufacturers are allowed to install the same type of distraction in the dash of their cars. Crazy!
You're a good man, Craig, genuinely caring about your wife and family. Props to you!
Your wife's response when you said @16:12 "oh this is probably going to be nonsense to you"..was priceless...
I think it was pretty cool that you had your wife in the video. I feel that she gives more of a consumer view on the vehicles which at times is helpful. I do enjoy the analytical side and I think that you do a very good job explaining what you were doing on a regular basis either way it’s always enjoyable.
Love the real world perspective of your wife. Great video. Thank you.
More videos with the wife for sure. She gives real, honest and unbiased answers which honestly helps us out when trying to find a vehicle for our loved one. Please let her know she is greatly appreciated.
Craig...let your wife do some more car reviews. She's fun.
Great Video you two! The compare and contrast is very valuable from each of your perspectives. Your wife is very practical and is by no means unfamiliar with different cars having driven so many different makes/models while your technical knowledge is equally valuable. Thank you. When I see this level of insight and information on you tube…. I shake my head in disbelief that your passion provides this to me for free! 😊
Your wife is very sweet and genuine, thanks for including her. Her observations make a lot of sense! When you talk about GM SUV's, don't forget the Chevy cousins, Tahoe and Suburban. I had a '16 Tahoe LTZ that my wife loved, but that fuel management system was a PITA. I should have gotten the 6.2 V-8.
@Pat S
Doesnt the 6.2 have the fuel management system as well?
@@turnne it might have it now, but in 2016 I was told the 6.2 did not have it. I could have been misinformed (by the dealer).
@@patstiff 6.2 has always had it. 6.0 did not
I know 4 people who have replaced there engines replaced because of AFM by GM. Talking about a $7000 bill if you have the engines replaced with GM new blocks.
@@slalomking why did your buds not stop your dumb brain
I love the honesty in this video, I think review videos like this are super helpful. It lets people know what they are going to be getting into or what might happen. Also let’s the company’s know what’s wrong if the video gets enough traction.
Your wife should be in a focus group for GM. Tell them how to design their interiors.
Craig tell the wife thanks for participating in these videos they make my day and I know it's hard work for you all 🙏🏾
Your wife did such a great job explaining her issues with the Escalade. A great example of us men trying to overthink when simple does it so much better and easier.
I really loved her perspective. I am 100 with her. I have a volt and the user interface sucks and is dangerous to operate while driving. Knobs are the way to go. She is such a lucky lady.
Love your wifes input. Do more.
Definitely keep giving her time on your Chanel you guys make a great team.
thank you
I enjoyed the two of you reviewing that SUV. It was a really good point that your wife gets to try a lot of vehicles in every day experience. Would like to see more like this.
You both are very lucky to have each other. Beautiful to witness. Great family. Your wife is awesome.
One of my favorite things about New England are all the rock fences. We have plenty of rock here in Wisconsin but nobody makes rock fences. I don't understand why.
Great video Craig! I feel like I would be happy to see her in some capacity in every video where it makes sense. She's a natural and has always been big part of Flying Wheels behind the scenes. Take care guys! 🙂
Get her a V-10 Excursion. They have great visibility and real truck mirrors, so are easy to navigate...no gizmos/BS... She'll never want anything else! And they're bulletproof. Signed, an owner of 2 Excursions.
Your wife did a great job. We got a minivan because our kids would fling the doors open and smack other cars. The sliders saved lots of dents.
Craig’s wife totally loves the vibrations!!!
The Pacifica is an excellent vehicle. Rented one on a road trip to Florida and the family and I loved it. Definitely for a minivan, beautiful
Exactly why I'm looking for a 2006 or older clean suburban z71
I totally agree with your wife. I think some cars are overly packed with tech which is difficult or distracting to use. Driving is an inherently dangerous activity and anything that takes away the drivers attention is a potential risk. Controls which are intuitive to use are way better, imo.
I agree less distraction means safer driving.
Your wife did a great job describing that body style Escalade. We had a 2013 Platinum and went to a 2016 Platinum my wife hated for the exact same reasons. Then went to 2018 Denali Ultimate that she loved but was a lemon and had to go back. She now drives a 2020 BMW X7 M50 and loves it.
What’s a lemon
My dad always said. The fancier these cars get, the more things that can go wrong. Don’t get me wrong, I love technology, but sometimes it’s to fancy or to much.
I loved the interaction between you and your wife. AND the fact that she is so SWEET..You need to have her more involved with your shows...
One of your best videos, very honest and practical review. I think 2015 was a pivotal year in electronics. A lot of new technology, but not really beta tested yet. The new technology was there, but not set up in vehicles very well ( hard to use and cliche)
I am so glad I saw this video because I am in the market for a large SUV, not because I have a lot of kids, but because I’m a senior with two Pitt rescues I travel with. I also need a SUV with low ground clearance so I don’t have to climb into it & fall out of it.
The best part of this video was watching how many steps it takes to adjust the heat. I wouldn’t have thought to check to see how the screen works. I’m not stupid but I don’t want to go through a bunch of steps instead of turning a knob- that’s like common core math, ha I would love for you to make a video about SUVs for seniors. I love all of the bells & whistles that are simple to use but it has too look good too. There’s nothing pretty about a van & Honda has a van that looks like a hearse!
Yes, you can have her back as often as she is willing. I am a huge SUV fan, but minivans rock when the weather is nice.
It was great to get your wife’s point of view as to how things work (or don’t) in a day to day basis.
My big take away was stay away from GM trucks when they are older. As you went in and in about what doesn’t work, all I saw was dollar signs to fix everything.
I think your wife makes complete sense. Cars are too complicated and distracting...who are the manufacturers catering to? Never heard anyone say they dislike knobs and buttons. Maybe I am just old
You have a great wife 🎉🎉🎉
She was wonderful in your video
Great video, your wife was very informative and my wife would have the exact same complaints. I ordered the Fanttik 9 as well so thanks for the discount!
Hey Craig your wife 100% on point. I rented the sedan model. Pain in the butt with the touch screen could not understand how to use as well. Your wife should test more cars at least the up models. At least we will get a honest answer on these vehicles that alot of ppl say are the best vehicles. Thanks again.
Your wife did a great job explaining her perspective. Men and women see things differently. It was nice to see and hear both sides when going over each of the vehicles. You really should do more of this type of format on you vlog.👍🏻👍🏻
Your wife is so cool Craig ! Doesn't like doing videos but did a really great job explaining her hate on the Escalade.
She needs to do a like video on her Denali now.
Great video! I enjoyed seeing both of you in the video and getting her feedback on the vehicles.
Wife is an amazing lady...should just give her minivan as Xmas gift 🎁...never hurts to have 2 reliable family cars of one goes down etc...backups are great if u have the means..some people dont..
Great video. Thumbs up for having your wife featured she is right about some of the tech in New cars
Great job you two. Amazing team effort - you bounce off each other so well - and one can see you know one anothers tastes. I say ease her into more videos...😊
I prefer knobs as well. I hated the Cue on my ATS. When I worked at a Cadillac dealer I remember people buying these new with $20k down it was around $1200 a month for payments. And that was when interest was low to nothing
Your wife is awesome, honest mom review, keeping it simple and practical
My wife bought a new Suburban a few years ago for road trips she takes of 500 miles with our kids when she goes to Ohio and Florida from North Carolina. She also hauls our kids and their friends everywhere. It was a pain in the ass in parking lots at the hospital she works at. I told her they are a pain cause of size which is why I always park my 3/4 ton Ram way out at businesses. She got rid of it and got a Yukon Denali after 2 years which is much easier to maneuver but can still haul people. Only gave up a little storage in the back.
The Cadillac is more digital and the Denali is more analog. I've found myself stuck in the late 00's early 10's as far as feeling practical, comfortable and the longevity.
I've just "thumbs up'd" a dozen comments - Your wife is great !
She did an amazing tutorial! Please have her on more often or do.some reviews! Down to earth review and to the point. Job well done!
Not just a testament to this vehicle alone but all newer vehicles going in the wrong direction arguably with all the technology like the screen fixed for $60 but 1800 at a dealer!
The common sense assessment was so valuable. Thanks to you both.
Craig your wife is incredibly insightful and has a genuine sense of practicality plus she does great in your videos, i hope she decides to be in some of your future videos. and as for the ESV yes too many touch screen functions I work ay a Chevy, DMC, Buick dealer and you would be surprised at hoe many Cadillac owners have come in to trade for a Yukon Denali better ergonomics in the yukon is what I have heard from customers. Simple Switches are far easier, As far as DOD that started as standard equipment for the 07 model year on all LS based engines. As you stated you can have that feature turned off my a tuner or you can buy a ALDI port plug in which will deactivate that feature to make it run on all 8 which will save your Cam shaft and Lifters, You be amazed at how many engines have been replaced simply as a result of that feature, Cadillac tried it in 81 with the 368 4/6/8 engine which failed.
What a fun and informative video. Thank your wife for being such a good sport!
Fun video - love your wife's perspectives! For her next car consider getting her a late model AWD Hybrid Toyota Sienna: comfort + reliability+ excellent fuel economy.
Everyone is flocking to Toyota. They are basically impossible to get. It might be an option in a year or two when supply increases and demand falls more.
That was lur favorite car
Another great video. Escalade looks too fussy and those controls
Definitely cause wandering issues. Good to see your wife in the video as well. Awesome stuff
Bring the wife around more often. she brings more flavor to the vids
She's super sweet,I love tuning in yall guys are awesome🦾
I saw a Pacifica in Phantom blue and it was the nicest color I've seen in years. Coupled with the bronze/orange interior is a match made in heaven🤗
More wifey viewpoint. That was a refreshing change and useful for those of us looking at purchasing these vehicles.
Yes more videos with her she is so cool God bless you and your family amigo saludos from San Antonio tx
Informative and educational video. Speaking of education, as a driver’s ed teacher of more years than I’d care to say, I noticed a lot of things that most people wouldn’t, regarding your wife’s driving. I am certain that with the right training your wife could master backing in any vehicle in approximately 30 minutes. It would simplify what she now views as fairly complex.
I hope you mean it would take 30 minutes to teach her instead of taking her 30 minutes to back into a space…😀
Thumbs up for sure. And yes, more wife. She did a great job!
Great video Craig, It's great to get the Mrs point of view on these vehicles! I think the wife's inclusion gives the followers a more thorough perspective of these cars.
Hey Craig, nice video man! if you have time, please have more videos ft your wife and Kids! I enjoyed it!
I'm presuming that a seven year old car is considered old by those who can afford to trade up every three years and therefore their overcomplicated tech features are only built to last three to four years for those lucky few who never own an older vehicle! $100,000 for any vehicle is dream territory for me. Never has and never will happen! Great video.
Same seat problem in my 2004 Escalade. They like to sell parts, like 1800.00 touchscreens. And the infamous cylinder deactivation was first tried in 1981 . It was a failure back then, and a failure today. Want to make her happy? Get her a Lexus, but then you won't have videos to make about how much she hates it.
Excellent job Mrs. Flying Wheels! :) Great video as always, Craig!
Craig, I enjoy watching the good natured back and forth between you and your wife. Reminds me of my own marriage. 😶
enjoyed vidio nice to have the wife in the vidio.she makes the show.real down to earth person.just as you are.natural.
Well Craig you bought a brand new corvette so it’s time to get on the hook and buy her a new vehicle of her choice. Craig you just dodged a fast ball, awesome job.
My kids would destroy it
He's a selfish jerk. The new car is for him only. The used high mileage junk is for his wife and kids.
@@markmansel9899 easy Mark, you don’t know that because you don’t know Craig, he takes great care of his family in every way, we don’t get down like that on this channel.
Two thumbs up, Craig. One for you, one for Taryn!
The center console armrest is vinyl and you can tighten it up using a heat gun at a very low temp. Heat will help it move back to its original position.
Your wife was so cool and funny…. She’s probably is like most wives and moms about vehicles… LOL… Great video..
Her eyes aren’t great, forgets her glasses and still drives. Nice.
Everything she complains about is based b on her not being able to see
@@Himothy474 It's almost like it's her perspective as someone who has poor eyesight. Who'd have thought she would be honest about her personal experience?
Wife did amazing job Craig. Way better than German. You should bring her on auctions.
Another great video Craig !!!
I love that you put her first happy wife happy life ❤️
Wow, she parks as slowly as my mom does!
The difference is my mom drives a fairly small Infiniti crossover!
Another great video. I think we all really appreciate your wife's participation and hearing a lay persons opinion...
I certainly believe that children's privacy is very important - so maybe you could just relay what their opinions are between the 2 SUVs and the vans...
she added value to the video bye walking the walk with kiddos
FYI. I'm pretty sure (I'll check on one of ours) that in those GM memory seats you're supposed to hold the set button while you push the # you want to set. Not just hit set and then hit the #. Simultaneously push both and you should be good to go. Easy exit also to set it.
i bought my wife a 2008 expedition king ranch and personally its so awesome. best thing i could of ever gotten for her, for me! im getting another 370z hopefully soon.
I really enjoy your videos with your wife in them you need to make more with her and them have a blessed day Craig I like the minivan also
Craig, the alarm going off is an emissions thing. They don't want you to leave your car outside, idling. I believe you can change the time to as long as 15 minutes.
Thanks for that,it makes sense now
Im kinda confused any remote start I have had on vehicles does have a default time where the vehicle turns off after the preset time. However the vehicle alarm system doesn't go off "waking up my neighbours" as Mrs Craig mentions. Or are you saying these 2 vehicles he mentions has a particular problem where they are emitting unusually high emissions hence the alarm going off?
Modern fwd cars and vans with traction control come pretty close to the vasic performance of AWD and 4WD in snow and ice now the traction systems are amazing today
Magnetic ride control is nice. The seats vibrating when you get close to objects backing up is also nice. I like the HUD and although it's an extremely long vehicle and very wide, you feel confident behind the wheel. Also, even though it has the 6.2 under the hood you never feel the need to use it because it's a comfy cruiser. Hard not to like the escalade. My only gripe would be pushing the button on the door handle to get in or lock it. Not seamless like some other automakers.
It takes time to get used to a different vehicle. Be patient, and it will come to you. I have a 15 escalade also and use the volume controls on the steering wheel. I also set up the radio stations to be also used on the steering wheel. Once you have that all down, it is just getting used to the location of the climate control. I hardly use the screen for the climate. The memory settings has to be set up for the seats. It is actually very easy and if you have the entry and exit of the vehicle it can be a pain. Press and hold the set button until it beeps then press the number you want that key to be set up for.
Great video. You guys are awesome!
She is the best. Gives another opinion and prospective.
Love the honesty.. So rare these days. You guys look perfect together too. Have a 2016 cadillac srx and i get this clunk! Its random but not happy. It seems to do it when it’s shifting..
Cadillac needs to see this! You have to look at the dabs board which is so unsafe’
you need your wife in all the videos. she adds a real person effect to a already great channel. keep it all going
Your wife did a great job. I don’t personally purchase American vehicles because of all the issues
Craig, she’s a natural! Her assessment is definitely 💯 on the mark. That Escalade was far to complicated and distracting. They over did it. Bring her point of view on here more often. 😎🤙🏼
She has earned a gold medal!!!
