Flaw in 2012 esky?

[Regency]

So been at the dealership looking at the fullsizee line-up asking for parts and playing with the news bells and whistles and I discovered this in the second pic

 

[mattah]

are you referring to the painted molding? Its suppose to like that in the premiums

 

[Regency]

No I know that the indent in the door is what I'm talking about

 

[mattah]

man the more I look at the pictures makes me want a new one or just the rear bumper....must just wait til newer models come out... give or take 2.5 years


Guess i cant see it on my phone....

The premiums have the color matched door moldings/front grille/door handles, polished 22s, clear tails, and dual exhaust ... they are the 'sportier' of the Escalade trims.

 

[Regency]

Yeah I know serge you guys don't see that indent above the moldings
Mattah- Dude I know the interiors were so nice but the center console is super heavy I honestly like my truck better it was kinda cool all the sales workers were like checking it out and asking me questions about everything

 

[soulsea]

I'm confused Marcus ... you mean the groove that runs parallel to the door moldings?

If so all Eskys have that.

 

[Regency]

Yeah I know I just think it looks weird

 

[OHSIXX]

the indent is so that you can open the rear doors fully without crunching the front molding........

 

[Regency]

Not that it's right above the molding and goes in

 

[quattrotman]

They all have that. Doors are different than tahoe/yukon. If you look close, you can see it on mine too...now you know why they charge a premium for the lade

Hmm alright it was funny the guy I was chatting with basically said the escalade is a waste of money and was telling me everything that's the same with all of them

 

[felixgun]

The 6.2L isn't a waste... i promise And yea the indention is on all of them but I don't know if i'd consider that a "flaw"...

On a side note, I REALLY want one of those rear appliques above the license plate... I wonder if anyone has done that mod... it looks so much better than the fully chrome one IMO.

 

[Regency]

I thought it was just something different on them didn't think it's ugly at all haha and I like my 5.3 hahah wish it was a 6.2 though and want me to grab a part number/price if I go back?

 

[felixgun]

Well "flaw" is kind of different then "something different" lol. Yes and yes! If you could...

 

[Regency]

Forsure bro

 

[bottomline2000]

Looks like the trim should cover the indentation. Like you should have one or the other, not both.

I know right

Escalade being a waste of $ is far from true. It is pricey though for the features it has though.

The rear of those things

As far as waste, the truck is not.... but overpriced overall yes.
