If he told the actual truth about it he would never be able to sell it. Two key words will sum up the cars problems - Old Cadillac.

At the end of the day it's worth driving.You get alot of usable truck that's alot more comfy then the standard gmt platform and it's also very affordable as far as used parts because of it really being a Chevy under the skirt

Yeah Boiii it’s just a gmt400 truck... trust this is an exception

He could make a good car salesman. Some are totally disinterested in the cars that are trying to sell. bored out of their minds. On that escalade, what does the under body look like?

... . Then would have given the car wizard another $3,000 to make it perfect, then he would have sold it for $328 :-)

Talkin' Cars With Tim Hoovies Garage I miss his original videos when he got daily driver hoopties for cheap and reviewed them. Like the Lincoln Town Car, Buick Park Avenue or the dodge caravan all being from the 1990-1995 years.

BEST COMMENT AWARD!

Which is still cheap..

Hoovie wouldn't have bought it, it runs too well for him.

I know, has 4 tires and a motor for 300 bucks.. STEAL!!

He did a trade and cash cars go for 500 buck minimum by me non running

@@nkn8820 lol no way down here they pay $250 to $300 at the junk yard if your lucky.

Eshu lmao I just payed 350 for a perfect running 2003 wrx and all it has for issues is a small exhaust leak, trunk doesn’t lock, rear driver door doesn’t unlock and the radiator reservoir neck leaks, all issues I could fix with a parts Impreza

@@jeremiakendrick9165 Did you check the timing belt and plugs. I hear that job alone is about $1300 on those cars.

My grandpa was the seller of this Escalade and I can confirm it was a deer that he ran over. Or so he told us.

@@zatama sorry zach, facts and evidence is the American way , and they can confirm it was a small child

I nearly died

My fav part😂

sucks to live where you live. Here in New York gas prices are pretty cheap now

@@DayV914 Learn to recognize sarcasm.

@@nickv4073, too funny! Be nice, lol

@@DayV914 I wouldn't brag about living in that shithole.

No they're not perfect have their problems, but I want me a Tesla don't have to worry about high gas prices charge that sucker with solar panels.

We do need an off-road challenge! 🍻

Please make it happen!

That would be awesome

Essentially a newer dressed up Tahoe Vs. older Dressed up Tahoe.

Homelink was around before the Escalade, just was a dealer add-on vs factory option

170k is not even a lot on a truck. Not even 225k if u take good care of it.

Mark Wolf some people only do oil changes and brakes.... that’s why, if you treat ur car right it will return the favor, well unless u drive a Nissan

Not necessarily true--you can take care of something to a T with the owner's manual and mfr's recommendation and still have issues. Chevy for example has had many problems in their vehicles starting about 10-12 years ago. For me I have a 2013 Silverado 1500 w/ the 5.3L. I did everything by the book (oil changes, trans fluid changes, plugs, wires, coollant, etc) and even took my truck to the dealer for all service. At 110k the oil pump was failing. Now it has a stuck lifter. I did everything right and still had a bunch of issues. And I'm not the only one--google "CHEVY 5.3L stuck lifter" on Google and you'll see what I mean. It's Known issues for this particular truck (the 2007-2013 era Silverado 1500 w/ 5.3L AFM engine). So part of it has to do with quality. The AFM was just a bad design on those era of trucks. GM, among other brands, have been going downhill over the past decade. They used to make great trucks, but they had to screw things up.

@@HR-wd6cw Yup. Engines are waaaaay too complex these days. I got stung by a Jeep that was taken care of properly. 100% my next daily driver is a Tesla. Electricity is cheaper than gas and it has like almost zero required maintenance. Tires and window washer fluid will be the first things lol. Brakes last forever due to regenerative braking. The coolant for the batter system I think lasts like 8-10 years.

Because most people don't maintain their cars like they should...

Pretty much! Make your own fun 🤙

Ya you might be right look at westen champlin he lives close to wichita too I am convinced all Kansans collect cars lol

royalbangal101 depends on where you live at here, some places yes, others no

it is a car state. source: lived in wichita

Kansas has one of the cheapest costs of living in the country...

I was looking out for you! 🤙

@@WatchJRGo thanks

Really it was the XJ but mmmmmmmm love the 90s luxury SUV's

Literally a GMC Denali with Cadillac logos in this generation... Not one unique thing.

worst escalade of them all

The guy didnt want or need 2 cars and probably didnt want to go through the hassle of selling it so to get rid of it he just gave it to him..nothing wrong with that

@@ThePitbullsrking i just read your reply and now feel dumber

We call that disposing of "evidence" quickly guys

Lots of people dont want to deal with paying smog, tags, and insurance for a car that's barely used

Dont worry i will take good care of it , lol i just bought a 99 denali same colour maybe it was moms ......

You know it! 🔥

Can’t pay my rent cuz all my money spent

@@AR-ds7ly Quarter tank of gas in my new e class

Ted Sirlouis gotta quarter tank of gasssss! In my new E-Class!! Man, when I bought my first Mercedes I played the shit out of this song 😂

And that’s when I realized that Girl Scout was a 30ft tall creature from the Mesozoic era! 🦕

@@WatchJRGo How much did you end up selling it for?

tyler kitter yeah it’s a rare enough option. Factory though

Plenty of vehicles had rear facing until the early 2000s, a kid hauling vehicle like this for sure would have that as an option.

I always heard it was not available. It’s a rig job.

Hell no seatbelts even

The rear facing seat is not actually just a rear facing seat. It can be positioned either way (forward or backward). Handles on the back and bottom of the bench that unlocks it so it can be taken out or in this case reversed. Some of the Eddie versions of the expeditions had this also. The seat belts still work also.

D F I actually tought it was aftermarket so they do come like that?

@@gueroburban4989 Apparently it's a very very rare factory option. I've never seen another one. I would imagine most people didnt get them as an option.

What happens is similar to the missing owners manuals w many used vehicles. Peeps remove rear seat for more room. For many it isn't needed. Then either toss it or simply lose track of where it went. And the owners manuals get taken out for some read time, get misplaced n never make it back into the glove box! Amazingly this Caddy had both!👍😉

The fuel gauge was angry! Time for a new servo 😂

I'm here to in SC..best deals usally come from NC so I drive to get them

right looks like hes the only one with cars parked on the street lol

🤣🤦🏾‍♂️

Brandon Morris I know I would

But just over a decade before the Escalade they had the cimarron and around the mid 90's they had the catera. Basically Cadillac has a long history of this behavior.

@@earlscheib7754 Which is why they get no respect and sell like 1/3rd the number of cars compared to the 1970's.

Exactly Lincoln beat Cadillac with the Town car and Lexus beat them both in the overall market. The abysmal depreciation on domestic luxury was the death of Cadillac and Lincoln next in line is Infiniti but that's a whole nother story.
