#156 of 994 It's GREAT by gocaddygo Apr 07, 2000 (6:14 pm)
Well, in my first post I said that I would be picking my 2000 Escalade up in a few days... well, now I've had it almost a month and I LOVE IT!!! It rides like a dream and it's the most comfortable vehicle I've ever been in. Everyone that has seen it LOVES IT TOO! People stop me on the street and in parking lots just to see more... I haven't even started my '97 Expedition since I picked up my Caddy. LIFE IS GOOD.

you may even want to put a FOR SALE sign on your Expedition. Who would want to drive that!! FORD the name says it all. There is absolutely no comparo between that and what you're driving now. owner '00 Denali '00 Silverado

Better yet... I'm giving my Expedition back to the dealer... it was just a lease. That way I won't have to take a loss... Where do I go from here...
#159 of 994 At least... by mbml55amg Apr 12, 2000 (10:00 pm)

NEW GMC SUV TO DEBUT IN NEW YORK The Big Apple is the setting for big news from GMC with the world-wide introduction of the all-new 2001 Yukon Denali at the New York Auto Show. GMC's full-size, upscale SUV is sure to impress attendees with unsurpassed levels of styling, improved capabilities and premium features in a true professional-grade package.   In addition to Yukon Denali, GMC will make world-wide introductions of two additional vehicles, that when combined with Denali, strengthen GMC's hold on the premium truck market and further heighten GM's full-size truck leadership.    The Yukon Denali features the most powerful engine in the half-ton, full-size utility segment - a new Vortec 6000 V8 that delivers 325-horsepower and 370 ft-lb of torque. The addition of a heavy-duty electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission makes this powertrain combination highly responsive and quick reacting.   And, for the first time in a full-size SUV, Yukon Denali is equipped with a standard full-time all-wheel-drive system that provides superior handling and traction for varying road conditions without requiring extra effort from the driver. Handling also gets a boost from the standard   AutoRide computer-controlled suspension system, which provides automatic variable shock damping on all four wheels. Yukon Denali is also the first full-size SUV to offer 17-inch wheels and tires to enhance the vehicle's smooth, quiet ride even further. Yukon Denali's new, unsurpassed powertrain plus it's great chassis gives new meaning to agility and control on any road.                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~                           copied from                           http://www.generalmotors.com/cgi-bin/format_daily_news.pl on                           04-17-00

2000 Escalade Purchased a new Escalade yesterday. Great ride and a lot more luxurious than the 97 Tahoe I traded on it. Negatives are the ridiculous location of the VCR! Location under the rear seat cushion would be OK, but when folding the seats flat for carrying cargo or luggage, the seat won't fold all the way down because it hits (and crushes) the VCR. Doesn't GM have Autocad to check this type of dimensional conflict? Absolutely embarassing for them! The TV antenna is two little wires which are supposed to be "glued down" to the drivers side cargo area window frame inside the car. The little stickers don't hold and the little wires "slap and rattle" as they hit the window while you drive. Great!! The "On-Star" system on my new car is fully inoperable, though the dealer attempted to set it up for me in the proscribed manner. I discovered that the "Human voice" feature is really just an ordinary cell phone connection. You have to be within range of a GTE cell site to talk to an operator at "Onstar". The only message I get is that my system "is not authorized to use Onstar". Other than the above "typically American car" quality problems, I really do like the car's ride and interior comfort, and the exterior styling and 'curb appeal' is quite nice. Learning that the Escalade does not have 4 wheel disc brakes was a shocker - after I had signed on the dotted line!

the 5.7 should have been a hint that 4 wheel disk did not apply.

I am tired of my father complaining that I drive a Nazi car. Dad, I say, as soon as our domestics equal German (and Japanese), I will once again be back in the domestic market. My German heritage means nothing in my choice of teutonic cars and my father can be excused because he is 87 years of age and landed at Normandy Beach (Omoha-Dog-Green, to be specific). I understand his position well and he is a dyed in the wool Caddy owner from way back. I ain't no youngster either but GM needs to go some distance before I will buy their product. No offense to those of you who have.
