2004 Cadillace Escalade

123,599 miles

Brand New Transmission

20” Chrome Rims and Custom Grille

VIN 1GYEK63N24R238860


We are selling our 2004 Cadillac Escalade.  We purchased this from a family friend in October of 2006, coming off of lease.  We originally paid $37,770, with 34,390 miles.  My wife drives this 4 days a week for the past seven years to commute to work, which is about 10 miles each way.  She has averaged about 12,000 miles per year.  Other than that, we use it to haul the 3 kids here and there.


We are selling the truck because I recently purchased a new vehicle, so the wife has the itch for a new truck.  We are going to sell this and get a late model Yukon or Tahoe.  We have had this for just over seven years, and my wife has treated this truck better than me.  She washes it by hand every weekend, towel drying and vacuuming.  It’s a beautiful looking truck.  The dark tinted windows against the white paint, along with the aftermarket chrome 20” rims make this truck stand out when she comes down the street.  Not to mention, the aftermarket exhaust makes a sweet deep rumble.  It really is a special car.  


We almost traded it in last year, and just as we were in the process of shopping for a new car, there was an issue with the transmission.  Instead of taking a chance on a $700 repair, we decided to have the dealer install a new GM Certified Transmission with a 3 year/100,000 mile warranty (parts and labor) for a cost to us of $3,300!  So, our loss is your gain!  It would have been much more difficult to sell a truck with a transmission issue, so we bit the bullet. With that being said, this is probably the only Escalade on the market with a new transmission.  


Below is a list of everything I can think of regarding both the positives, and the potential future work needed:


Awesome Features:

  • Brand new GM Transmission with 3 year/100,000 mile parts and labor warranty.  This was replaced in the beginning of February.  We paid $3,300.  All work was done by Holman Cadillac in Turnersville, NJ.

  • 20” Chrome Tezzen Struck aftermarket wheels with 295/50 tires.  Original cost was $2,555 (I have a copy of the invoice).  The 295/50 low profile really makes the wheels stand out.  I do have the original wheels if you would prefer.  I included a picture of these.

  • All four tires are approximately 12 months old.

  • This is about a $800-$1,000 value.

  • Custom aftermarket chrome grille.  Original cost was $1,269 (I have a copy of the invoice).

  • Navigation

  • Sirius

  • On-Star

  • Heated Leather Seats

  • Overhead DVD Entertainment

  • Tow package (we never used it)

  • 3rd row seating

  • 2 owners

  • All work (including oil changes) performed by a Cadillac Dealership (other than new tires)

  • All service records

  • Treated like a baby


Any time I sell a car, I list everything that I am aware of that would need to be done to the vehicle.  I would hope someone does the same for me.  You can be assured anything listed is everything we are aware of.  


Potential upcoming maintenance:

  • You may want to have spark plugs replaced along with regular maintenance items that you would usually replace for a car this age.  

  • There are two messages that show up on the dashboard:

    • One references the tire pressure.  Because these are aftermarket wheels, without the internal tire pressure gauge, this warning pops up that the computer doesn’t read the pressure from the tires.  This of course isn’t an issue, as the tires are fine, but it does show up.

    • The other is for the Ride Service Control.  There is some type of rear shock that adjusts the height of the back of the truck depending on what is loaded in the back.  The compressor no longer works, but we never noticed a difference.  We didn’t notice any change in the ride, so we opted not to repair it.  Your choice.

  • The paint is immaculate, but you’ll see there are two small spots missing paint on the passenger front bumper.  I actually didn’t notice this until I took pictures of the car.

  • The air conditioner will sometimes blow warm on one side.  After a few minutes, or when the car is restarted, it will correct itself.  I’ve looked it up and it could be low on freon which is an easy fix.  However, we have not had it assessed by the dealer.  

  • DVD player can be quirky.  Every once in a while, we have to turn the car off then on again to get it to read the disc.


We are sad to see the Escalade go, as it’s been good to us.  Please give me a call on my cell at 610-389-8472 or email at johnplumley@gmail.com if you have any questions or you would like to come by to check it out.


Thanks,

John

Cadillac Ciel concept features in Entourage trailer

Wed, Dec 24 2014

Some of us may miss HBO's Entourage more than others, but one way or another, it sure had some cool cars. The characters on the show were constantly trading between Astons, Maseratis and Ferraris – not to mention a smattering of Benzes and Escalades – but one of our favorite sets of wheels from the show's entire eight-year run was the 1965 Lincoln Continental featured in the opening credits. The vintage parade car undoubtedly provided the studio with a great way to showcase the camaraderie between the four members of the title crew, but also made us pine for a time when you could actually get your hands on a four-door convertible. Unfortunately they just don't make 'em like that anymore – not the car and not the TV show in which it featured – but fans of both will be pleased to watch this latest trailer for the upcoming Entourage movie. Not only does it include all the members of the original cast, but it also features Detroit's latest (and arguably most stylish) attempt at reviving the four-door cabriolet: the commandingly elegant and achingly desirable but sadly unobtainable Cadillac Ciel concept of 2011.

Cadillac CTS-V, ATS-V special editions celebrate IMSA titles

Mon, Dec 4 2017

This was Cadillac's first year of competition for its DPi-V.R. Daytona Prototype race car in the IMSA Endurance Championship, and it brought home both the manufacturer title and driver title. To celebrate the occasion, Cadillac has created special editions of its fastest road cars, the CTS-V and ATS-V, and their defining features are stickers. Yes, the most unique part of these special Cadillacs is a decal package. But it is an attractive one, with white, gray, silver and red accents inspired by the race car. They're complemented by either a black or white paint job and red side mirrors. The rear quarter windows also get little stickers of the race car's silhouette. Though the stickers are the defining trait of these special-edition cars, they aren't the only features. The CTS-V and ATS-V each come bundled with an array of other features such as a sunroof, the carbon fiber exterior accent package, and a red and black interior that features red-accented carbon fiber trim and Recaro seats. Available as additional options are an eight-speed automatic for the ATS-V, a performance data recorder and a suede steering wheel and shift knob. The other neat tidbit is that, if those extra features are must-haves, the IMSA edition ATS-V is the way to go. The $72,190 price for the sedan is almost $2,000 less than an equivalent standard ATS-V sedan. The regular ATS-V sedan also isn't available with the red and black interior. The special-edition ATS-V coupe starts at $74,390, which is a little over $1,000 more than an equivalent normal ATS-V coupe. Unfortunately for CTS-V buyers, the IMSA edition model, at $105,730, is pricier than optioning up a regular CTS-V. So in that case, you'll have to decide whether the decals and exclusivity are worth it.

1959 Cadillac Eldorado and more featured in latest 'Forza Horizon 4' car pack

Thu, Feb 14 2019

It's that time again, time for another Forza Horizon 4 car pack. This one is a bit bittersweet, because while there are some great cars, it will also be the last one included with the Car Pass, which covered every downloadable car pack for a discounted price. So either we won't see many additional cars in the coming months, or we'll be paying extra for them. On a brighter note, the cars in this pack are cool, particularly the 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible. Threading this aircraft carrier of a car through British streets should be highly entertaining. It's also stylish as all get-out. There are more appropriately sporty cars coming, too, including the 1994 Honda Prelude Si, 1994 Nissan Fairlady Z Version S Twin Turbo and the all-new TVR Griffith. Some reward cars being added come from the role-playing video game Final Fantasy XV. They're the Quartz Regalia Type F and Type D. The Type F is another big luxury convertible in the vein of the Cadillac, and the Type D is the monster truck version. The car pack is available now, and is free to owners of the $29.99 Car Pass. The individual car packs are available for $6.99 separately, and individual cars are even available for $2.99 a piece if you only want specific ones.
