Man, I live in a hilly area and my wife does a lot of driving around time for errands, activities, etc.. and I look at the average she is getting in our 2WD Escalade and it's only 10.5MPG or a little better. I can't even get the average 13MPG City. I guess it's the sacrifice that has to be made to own such a gas guzzling beast! Funny how Caddy touts it's best in class MPG, but it's not that great.
 
At least I don't feel like we have to fill up on gas every other day, the tank is large enough that it's at lease once a week or a little more than that.

the handling is just OK, but I don't know if I could have expected more sportier handling from this large size of a truck.
  
I would have preferred more solid or tighter steering feel, but that is my preference coming from BMWs.

 
I agree with you, but that's what I'm saying. My last Navigator in particular, out rode and out handled this rig by light years. The steering was more precise and had better road feel. The handling was more tight and accurate. The ride was quieter and more stable.

Dealers have just started to get the 2008s but my dealer told me they are "keeping them in the back since they still have a lot of 2007s to sell". I talked to a Cadillac rep and was told that the first build date for the 2008s was 6/26/07 for the Arlington Texas plant.
 
The 2008s are coming out somewhat early since the 2007 model year was longer then normal. However, it does not look like the 2008 will have cylinder deactivation to improve the mileage 1 MPG or so.

I need an extra set of wireless headphones for my Escalade's dvd system. Is there a specific type that I need to get or will just about any set of headphones work? Thanks!

Most of them will work for you, but there are usually plenty of them out on E-bay for sale cheap.

I have also just broke 5,000 miles on my '07 Escalade EXT and I too am having a problem with the engine vibration. When the truck goes into overdrive it has a severe vibration which has caused my dash to rattle. Dealer told me to drive it till 5,000 miles with premium fuel. Now that I have done so and the vibration has worsened I am demanding that they take the truck back. My '04 EXT didn't have any of these problems and I ran regular fuel through that. Oh well, guess I should have gone with the Lincoln Mark LT.
