An Escalade Premium! Looks great and she has the rear dual exhaust too!

this is wrong, your KC4 circled is the power steering cooler, the engine oil cooler option is built into the radiator on the left hand sideDenalis and Escalades should have very similar ride characteristics.
The integrated brake controller, while nice, is not that big of a deal. Sure it's nice to have one built in, but a Tekonsha P3 will work just fine, and wiring it in is a breeze. I'm comfortable with a Tekonsha controlling my 8600-lb trailer.
More importantly would be the coolers. For towing, you want to have the auxiliary coolers - transmission and engine oil. Look up those RPO codes so you know what to look for when you see them, or ask the seller to send you a picture of the RPO code sticker in the glove box.
My Sierra Denali has the following codes:
K5L EQUIPMENT ENHANCED COOLING PACKAGE ENHANCED COOLING PKG(K5L)
KC4 COOLING SYSTEM,ENGINE OIL ENG OIL CLG(KC4)
KNP COOLING SYSTEM,TRANSMISSION,HEAVY DUTY HVY DUTY TRANS CLG SYS(KNP)
These are the codes you want to see.
Or, just look through the grille:
Update:in the process of buying a NNBS. Either a Denali or the Tahoe. I prefer the styling of the Tahoe, but it’s not a deal breaker.
Thing is, I’m going to be using it to pull a camping trailer, and the 5.3 CAN pull it with no problem, but the question is, should I get the 6.2 with the Denali for the increased torque? Gas mileage is not a concern between the two.
So just wanted some opinions between the two, from those of you that know them the best.
Nice! Congrats. How's it run? How do you like it?
It’s almost TOO fancy for me, but I love it.Nice! Congrats. How's it run? How do you like it?
Has the 6.2? Nice score! You know....she's just begging for some go fast goodies.It’s almost TOO fancy for me, but I love it.
The 6.2 has some serious “put your ass in the seat” power. I tromped it one time and I swear if it had been any harder the front wheels would’ve come off the ground.
So far so good, gonna give her a good once over this weekend, and a little TLC inside to freshen it up.

Nice, nice. Heading on the right path .Yeah, hi-flow filter and AirAid MIT are already on their way to the house. Gonna do a full flush and fill, and full rundown/clean of engine, plugs and wires.
After that, it’s saving up for AFM delete, new cam, and tune.
