    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    Guys, While I certainly am open to any suggestions in an effort to help valuate the difference between the early build 2015 Escalade ESV vs. the mid year change, trying to determine that via the car sites you guys are debating about would be tough to begin with. Some will undoubtedly be...

    New (to me) Yukon today!

    Good question, and you know why I think so. ;)

    New (to me) Yukon today!

    Hello, and welcome back to GM. I never left having owned a Suburban (among other Chevy trucks cars) for decades.

    Clay Bar Question

    I have a general related question for those of you who do professional detailing. For my Corvette, I went all out with two clays, then the arduous Zanio process to get my Vette looking like it was covered in glass. Needless to say a Vette is much less time consuming than a huge SUV. I have...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    The sales manager said he is going to try to find me a 2015 with an 8 speed at the auction for around the same price that I paid. He asked if he could find me a 2016 for a little more. While I wouldn't have a problem with a 2016, I said the price needs to remain at or very close because I was...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I agree, and to a certain extent alluded to that in my last post. I doubt they would want to deal with a lawsuit (neither do I), and the ensuing bad publicity if I decided to make a stink about it. It may have ben an honest mistake, though they made it again with the other Escalade they still...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I am starting to get a bad feeling about this Escalade aside from the things I've mentioned so far. When we went to test drive it, the battery was completely dead. So we took a Denali out instead while they got this one running. When we got back it was running and after driving for a while...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I understand when new year models come out with upgrades or changes, especially cosmetic and the like. However it is typically done from year to year, not within the same model year. Thanks for the info.

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I would like to think they did not do it on purpose, but their ad definitely said an 8 speed transmission. The ad for the one I have is no longer up, otherwise I'd make a screen shot of it. The other 2015 ESV I test drove ad is still there, and it's ad also says 8 speed transmission in the ad...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    It did not have a sticker with features, only the internet ad listing it's options/features/cost. Though the ad has already been taken down, it clearly said 8 speed transmission.

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    It would seem as if what I thought was a good deal based on price and condition of the Escalade ESV might have been deceptive advertising. Frankly, I was not aware of the wi-fi aspect, but the rest I made mention of and asked questions about. Yes, it is a 2015 4WD with sunroof and a 6.2, but I...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    As I alluded to in the previous post, I am worried based on your information, mine may not be an 8 speed transmission. This despite the ad from this dealer claiming the one I bought had an 8 speed transmission. The salesman said as much also. My manufacture date on the inner door sill (so low...

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I will try your suggestion on the shifting (6 vs 8), however the next posters comment has me worried. In regard to the battery, there is a cover over the section closest to the engine, but it has a multitude of individual cables attached to bolts which seem to feed into another cable going...

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    I just put my 2007 full size Husky cargo liner from my 2007 Suburban in the back of my 2015 Escalade ESV over the top of the folded 3rd row seats. It is not a perfect fit but it is darn close. Like your experience, when When I raise the 3rd row seats, the cargo liner stays in place pretty well...

    Best cargo area liner

    As an FYI, in another thread a poster said he put a full size cargo liner in over the 3rd row folded seats. He said he could raise the seats and the liner stayed in place. I thought that was a novel idea, so when I just picked up a 2015 Escalade ESV, I took the Husky full size liner out of my...

    What tires did you switch to?

    Good thread topic as I will need to replace the 285/45/R22 Bridgestones on my 2015 Escalade ESV soon, and was wondering the same thing. Needless to say here in FL, I do not have to deal with snow, and am looking for good road tires with traction and a smooth/quiet ride?

    Bit the bullet and bought a 2015 Escalade ESV - Now I have a bunch of quesions?

    I was leaning toward a Denali XL, but had a deal too good to pass up on a 2015 ESV. I was under the impression that a Luxury edition had most of the options, but my knowledge of when certain options became available is lacking. 1) One thing I am not sure about is whether it has an 8 speed...

    Hello and welcome. What "ride quality issue are you referring to, as it should have the magnetic suspension which by my account is great for a SUV.

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    I see what you mean. The ones under the second row seats that go back toward the 3rd row are longer/different for the Tahoe, Yukon or Escalade, than the Sub, Yukon Xl or Escalade ESV. I wonder why, as the longer ones could benefit from the added protection. Makes me wonder if the dimensions are...

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    Ok, now I see that you have the full size cargo liner(presumably XL size?) up on the back of the 3rd row seats. Looking at the ads of Amazon, I do not see what you have in the 2nd picture, that being full coverage going up from the 2nd row from the footwell to up under the 3rd row. The ad...

    I hate to say it, but the 1st, 3rd, 4th and 6th pictures did not come out.

    Weathertech vs Husky Weatherbeater

    These look like what I was asking about regarding the ability to protect the carpet between the footwell to under the 3rd row seating area. How far under the 3rd row do they go back? Also, did you get the cargo area mat, and how does it work with the incline the Subs, XL's & ESV's have? TIA
