lenses to the fog lamps falling out?
 
YES!! I have an 03, with a lens missing. Wondering how to replace it - do I need just a lens or a complete light fixture? Also, how hard is it to fix. If the complete fixture is needed, a new one will probably be a couple hundred....don't you think?

njcaguy,
 
We live in Texas and have a 2007 2WD Sub. The 07 has traction control and mine has a locking rear differential, no autoride. I have had no problems in the rain at all. In addition, had it out in the once or twice a year icings we get on the streets and had no issues then either. My suggestion is if you get the 2WD, make sure it has code G80...I think it is standard on the Caddy but might want to double check. Good Luck.

4burb,
 
Thanks again for the good advice. About a month ago I purchased the 2007 Escalade 2WD and really enjoy it. I was convinced by yourself and others that AWD is really not needed in Southern CA. I still am not even sure if the Caddy has full time AWD or AWD when needed.
 
The only issue I have the Escalade is the steering feel is too soft / light, if it were a little more solid / rigid you would feel you would have more control and better handling, other than that, it's a great vehicle and my first caddy!

4burb -
 
I live in Texas also and believe the 2WD make more sense. However, what does G80 code mean?

G80 is the code listed on the build sheet if the vehicle has a locking rear differential option.

GM Supplier Discount? by iceman2

I'm about to purchase a 2007 Escalade, 2WD, sunroof, 20" wheels, entertainment, nav. I can use a GM supplier discount but not sure what kind of price it REALLY entitles me to. Am I better off straight-out negotiating with the dealer for my best deal, or will the GM supp. be the best possible deal?
 
Has anyone gotten pricing below invoice on these SUV's? How hot are they right now?
 
Your advice is appreciated!

Your GM Supplier Discount maybe much better than my GM in the Driveway Friends & Family Discount which was around $1K under invoice + $1,500 dealer cash. Before telling them of my discount, the dealers were quoting me at invoice or $500 above invoice. From all indications with my dealer this GM friends & family discount they would not offer that low of a price for anyone without this special code, but who knows if they have to move product maybe you can negotiate more for your trade-in, either way they dealer is making some money.

Gas economy by pmeyer

Just bought my new 2007 Escalade EXT and love it. I knew gas was going up but as they say, if you can afford an Escalade, you can afford the gas. My question is the manual states a gas mileage of 13-19 mpg. I drove my EXT to Las Vegas from Phoenix, around town and I always get 15.5 mpg no matter how or where I drive it. Sounds familiar...let me know. I have never gotten 19 mpg, even when 65 on the highway for hours.

Good luck on the new Escalade! I've had my 2007 for over a year now with about 14,000 miles and my average mixed subarban mileage has been 14.4 so what you are getting sounds about right to me........unfortunately! Enjoy it anyway....it's only money : )

And you never will - 14something is the best you'll do. REally now, this is a square box jetting through the atmosphere. Why are we talking MPGs in an Escalade forum anyway? Ridiculous~!
