What Owners are Saying About the 2003 Cadillac Escalade EXT

"Great truck!!"

"It's a great truck and a great value!!! The only problem that I think should be addressed is that one day I was driving, and the truck turned of, well it seems that the brakes don't work at all when the engine turns of, so if your driving and the engine turned of on the road, you will have no brakes!!!!"

"Awesome vehicle!"

"My 2005 Escalade EXT is a really great truck. It still looks brand new and I get compliments on it all the time. Although it has 128,000+ miles on it it still runs like a champ, I see no reason to buy a new vehicle while this one is still running like new😊"

"Very Good Truck"

"I got my 2005 EXT 2 years ago and have not had any problems. Its very roomy, easy to drive and classy. Everyone is impressed and can't beleive its 5 going on 6 years old. 14.2 MPG mostly city driving, - coasting is the key to increase MPG."
