2005 Cadillac Escalade EXT Preview summaryImage

For 2005, the Cadillac Escalade EXT got a new instrument panel and refurbished interior trim. Otherwise, not much changed for the SUV-pickup truck mashup that bears the esteemed title of automotive icon. The Escalade EXT derives its power from a 6.0 L, 345 hp V8 engine with 4 speed automatic transmission and comes in one trim: the AWD Crew Cab SB.

The 2005 Cadillac Escalade EXT has 4 doors, seats 5, and tows up to 7300 lbs. Standard features include air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, power/leather seats, cd player, ABS brakes, traction control, and stability control. Options include a navigation system and sunroof. Need room? The Escalade EXT gives you and your traveling companions plenty of space to stretch out with 120 cubic feet. Gas mileage comes out to 13 mpg in the city and 17 on the highway.

Overall, drivers like the V8 power, smooth handling, and modern features that the Escalade EXT offers. On the other hand, this crossover guzzles gas just as thirstily as its cousins and sports a hefty price tag. If you're in the market for something different and can ante up for the luxury, the 2005 Cadillac Escalade EXT presents an intriguing option.

The truck is a lemon with power that has good looks. That's all! I would not recommend to buy this truck, because looks is all you get with big repair bills. I have to get everything fixed all the time, but if you are handy and have a parts connection, then it might work. Used parts aren't so easy to find, since it is a hard to find truck.Jun 25, 2014
