on another note Felix, you need about 30 more pictures of your Tahoe to get top dollar. Pics of every seat, every floormat, every door, cargo area, etc.

ok so i found the one i'm getting and i'm just going to trade in my car with this dealership not too far from where i'm at... I've been telling myself I want a Denali... until I look in the interior of the Esky... so I changed my mind. What do you think Jacob??

07 esky with 56,000 miles on it...

Ok just checked out the car above. It SUCKS. Esky logo above license plate in the rear was all scratched up. Rear bumper covers step pad was all dented and scratched up. The ceiling inside had all kinds of smudges and the center console was wiggling so bad i could almost rip it off. The passenger side 2nd row window sill had the rubber thing falling down. One of the chrome handles looked like it had duct tape on it and it was ripped off. I could go on and on. Basically I just drove 2.5 hours away to look at a ****** abused escalade. The search continues...

That sucks!! I'm surprised that the dealer wouldn't put a little elbow grease in it to clean it back up again. With that low mileage that thing is already pretty beat up :sad72:

It was a leased car so it was probably abused. The sad part is it had already been detailed. Here's what I'm looking to get now... Called the dealer and it's currently getting the rear bumper cover re painted. What do you guys think?

From a distance and small pics it looks like what a righteous esky should look like. :waytogo:

That was actually my vote but my gf wants the esky way more then the Denali. KBB value of both vehicles I look at are the same so price isn't the issue... When it all boils down to it, the interior of the esky from the sick gauge cluster to the 8" nav screen, pushed it over the edge over the Denali.

The pic in that CL ad shows the normal running boards but it says it has power running boards? Also, the esky i'm looking at above is 4k cheaper and has 51k miles :)

Well 10k less miles is 20% less than 50k so that would explain the price diff ...

I do like how the tan interior looks though ... not sure about having it CO but it does look nice.

Esky is badass! I'm not sure if that tan interior would be good with a kiddo though...

Ours is tan and it's survived two kids but we don't really let them drink in it unless it's a closed, spill proof container. The only time they really eat in it is when we're on trips too so as long as you're careful with what you allow them to do you should be ok :)

ain't NO way tan interior is going to last living in the snow regions AND with a kid. No freakin way. I'm OCD and when I was in Salt Lake City during ski season, rented a burban with tan interior. I tried my damnest to keep my feet clean and its just impossible with snow. Trust me when I tell you, tan interior = begging for trouble.

living in snow regions is completely different tho. He'll make the right choice for him, I can only shed light from my experiences. :)
