This is a clean/attractive, problem-free vehicle. This has been a very dependable automobile since my wife and I purchased it new in 2007. Roughly half of its 98,000 miles have been tallied as interstate miles as we traveled from our north AR home to our 2nd home in FL (~5x/year), with the other half by my wife's local traffic use. It has excellent acceleration/power/smoothness and it glides effortlessly down the interstate with the cruise set at 78mph. It has been faithfully maintained and garaged. Although it has a trailering package, we have never used it to pull any loads....but with its 400+hp, I am confident it would pull a sizable trailer with ease. We have experienced no mechanical difficulties with it, and I would be very surprised if the new owner has any problems for the next hundred thousand miles. The Escalade's exterior finish has acquired a few nicks/chips; the largest of which I have included in the photos-the thumbnail sized paint chip on the front portion of the R-rear quarter panel. As you can see from the photo, this has been repaired with touch-up paint, but it is still visible. There is NO associated rust or dent associated with this, however. Close scrutiny will reveal a few other small nicks/rock chips (corners, behind wheels) which are not unexpected on a used vehicle, its exterior is in very good condition, overall. There are no noticeable dents or rust in the body panels. As for the interior, there are some of the expected signs of wear, but it is quite clean for a used auto. There is a superficial scratch in the leather upholstery worth noting, which I have included in the photos. It is in the seat-portion on the front passenger captains chair (see photo). This is NOT a full-thickness defect, and it is definitely not a tear, but it is a visible imperfection. Also of note, is the slight darkening of the carpet at the R-rear passenger door threshold (see pic). I would expect a professional could remove this with a steam extraction. As the pictures demonstrate, the interior is in good condition, otherwise. To protect the carpet, I purchased and installed heavy duty Husky Liner floor mats from front to back when I purchased the SUV. I found them very practical and I will leave them in the Escalade when it sells. The new owner may find them unattractive/inappropriate in a luxury SUV and elect to discard them......but they have definitely served the purpose of protecting the carpet for its next owner. Mechanically, everything works. I know of nothing on the vehicle that isn't operational. It has served us well and never required any trips to the mechanic, other than oil/lube/brakes/tires/battery. The tires are about 50%; should be good for many more miles (see pics). I wouldn't hesitate to hop in this Escalade and drive cross-country in July. It's a very reliable truck that has served us well: it has never failed to start quickly and get us to where we want to go-when we want to go there. Overall, this is a beautiful, loaded Cadillac Escalade ESV which has been used, but not abused. We have cared for her like a member of the family and she has served us very well for six years; we are sad to see it go. It is not only a very eye-catching auto, but also dependable and functional. If you have been shopping for a trustworthy Cadillac Escalade ESV, this is the one you have been looking for. I have attempted to point out those things that a buyer might notice if he/she were to walk around the vehicle, but the best option is to see/drive this vehicle. Throughout the auction, it will be available for you to examine and test drive. If you cannot see the vehicle in person, you might consider obtaining a professional inspection. If you have any questions, please ask them while the auction is active; I will answer you promptly. Once the auction ends is NOT the time to make up your mind if you really do want to buy a truck. All questions, inspections, test-drives and decisions should be made before the auction ends. I reserve the right to end the auction early if I sell this vehicle locally. On Jun-12-13 at 07:40:51 PDT, seller added the following information: I have had a few people contact me about the price I am asking for the Escalade locally. After reviewing the prices on eBay and autotrader I have lowered the price to $22,500. This is the lowest price you will find for an Escalade with similar miles/year model/options/condition. If you would like to talk to me about this as a "buy it now", feel free to call me at 870-404-4481.
