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.

Does anyone know how to set the front DVD player to play when the truck is in drive?

I believe you need a jumper wire....not a factory setting option. Damn lawyers!

If I get t-boned by someone fiddling with an in-dash DVD player, I'm going to be the one suing the driver and GM, not my damn lawyer (he can be a bit of a jerk come to think of it  ).
Or in a case like this, it'll be my heirs suing. The driver there didn't get convicted on the murder charge btw.
It is a bit dumb not to enable a navigation system to accept a direction inquiry - sort of defeats the purpose if you have to pull over to reprogram your destination into the NAV. May as well grab a map at that point.
Watching movies in the dash while driving down the road isn't cool - let your passenger take their iPod or something instead.

I think you made an excellent choice. the vehicles are the same but only to a point. The Escalade is a better vehicle in my oppinion. And I am surprised to say that GM makes some of the best HID on the market today. I can testify that you see 100% better with HID over traditional halogen.

I never noticed it until you brought it up. We still want one though, guess I'll be buying my mother a white one instead of black. We are in a warm weather state and she loves the look of the new Lade.. Thanks for posting this, I don't know what the engineers were thinking on this one.

Edmunds said they tested two Escalades 07's and found that they both do the same thing....hopefully this will be resolved in the 08's and 09's.

It really sucks that they don't have loaner cars......GM needs to make this available to it's buyers. They can only cut corners for so long.
