Clean 2004 Escalade ESV 325K miles. Yes or NO ??

[Bigshawn]

I've had my 01 yukon slt since 2009 when I bought it with i think 93000 miles on it. I've been wanting to get a newer yukon/Tahoe for a while now, what years do you guys recommend? I have 13g's saved back for one and i know I've read some years seem to have more problems than others.

Nice to know trans is still under warranty! And damn I’m jealous on what you paid for a trans service! I just paid for than double that to service my rebuilt trans!! I’d love to se epics on the android radio upgrade! I wasn’t aware that they made any for our generation rigs! Real curious to see what it looks like! And teasing us with 20” wheel upgrades?! Damn... haha. I’m sure it’ll look bitchin! Can’t wait to see pics!

Ya that was a BIG selling point on this rig. If it didn't have maintenance history and recent trans rebuild I most likely would have passed on this one with such high miles

Yup $50 labor and I brought him trans filter and 6 qts of full syn trans fluid. Lucky for me my mechanic is a GM LSX specialist for last 10 years "Jack of all trades" has hooked up my aftermarket radios and even done some GOOD paint body work for CHEAP !! And best of all he works FAST gets any job done same or next day !!! for 1/3 of regular shop prices


I'm away from my Esky at moment on a business trip. But I'll get pics up this weekend on the 10" tablet radio upgrade !! I love it, I can watch youtube hulu netflix, heck even shop on amazon if I want via mobil hotspot on my phone. All my fleet has it !!
My '08 Silverado, '01 Suburban. Many people trip out when they see it !!!


Below are the 20's I scored a few weeks ago for $250 (FB market deal) messaged the guy 5 minutes after he posted and held them for 2 hours while I drove out to get them west Texas. Luckily for me Walmart has certain tires 50% off on clearance. I scored a set of 245 50 20 Goodyear viva 3's for $64 each. Now just gotta track down Cadillac emblems and have my guy give them a good polish

I was gonna say that lol. Tiny tires. Gonna ride like junk lol.

Looks are subjective, so I can't comment on that. What I was gonna say is that you'll be going "further" for a given drive, putting more miles on the odometer than what you're actually driving. But, then I remembered it has 325K+ so wtf does that matter? lol

Also, your speedometer will read about 5MPH faster at 70MPH.
