The side look from. Scotty when someone is interrupting…. ♥️
Most are deactivated so you don't have lifter failure. The 6.2s don't fail as much as the 5.3, but it still happens.
"Has Cadillac lost their minds?!" Yes. Yes they have. They just don't really make Cadillacs anymore. They just basically make rebadged Chevy SUVs now with more or less the same content and charge you a premium. I miss the Eldorado. I mean the REAL Eldorado, the big monster from the 70s with the 500. Now that's a proper Cadillac. Oh yeah.
Only fools will spend 150 k on American junk.
comparing any vehicle to 150k is insane. Dealer down in nj charging 60k over list.
This is part of the new normal. Global Elites and slaves.
I'll wait twenty years and buy it for two thousand.
Vanity of vanities all is vanity and vexation of the spirit and a chasing of the wind.
They won't run away from the rust. They will buy it anyway because they're on food stamps and still MUST have an Escalade or DA YUUUUkon anyway. So they will just become a recurring nightmare for the poor F@#$ like me at the nearest Maaco who has to explain that a 6000 lb car rotten to the frame cannot be fixxed for like $300. Yeah, I know yo sh!$ gotta look guud, but that thing is FUBAR fa dayz. And your being here means that you already gave some lucky guy your money and I'm the only one left to hear your tantrum now.
$150k for a GM that will be worth $20k in 3 years is ridiculous.
Nothing wrong with buying high mileage cars in good condition. Brother in law bought a Tundra 2 years ago with 120k thing still runs great, zero problems now with 160k.
150 000 for a GMC Tahoe?
Just nuts.
Scotty that gmc [yuck] is TAHOE re badged with Cadillac stuff 151,000 yea their are ones that can afford it. i saw a bently omg guess what volkswagen stuff, few Audi stuff. Scotty my brother looks at range rover he all caught up in it. i told him their Korean made endless money pits as they age. he defended and said their english made. alright who cares to myself being a knott head save argument learn your hard lessons the hard way the school of hard knocks. My brother lives in his own world not reality. even after he graduated college with bidness degree and foreign language in spanish. do you think after my parents put him through college he did resume after resume did anyone hire nope not a chance in hell. he working at retail store minimum wage/then goes over to shelter i guess does a glorified gopher./secretary another minimum wage. went through college spent all that time money for nothing. it got him nowhere. College/university degrees doesn’t guarantee a job you’ll be flipping burgers/working a gas station today
Hey Scotty can u work on my Cadillac?
Scotty – sure thing!
See’s upload of how crappy my Cadillac is..
I hate the body control module in gm
Scott, please help: bmw x1 2013, 128k miles. I was about to sell it so i took it in for the valve cover gasket change cause it was leaking, but now after my mechanic changed it the car idles horrible, its like in limp mode, barely any power. Car was running well before. He can't figure out what is wrong.
Thanks for all your help in the videos and hopefully with this question.
Codes its giving are for:
Cam intake shaft position sensor (didnt even touch)
Cylinder 3 miss fire
Random missfire
Thanks.
God bless.
I want a 700 hp supercharged Escalade
Nice video. How many miles can you get out of the Allison tranny that GM uses with the Duramax?
Scotty, when will your tooth be ready?
My 2006 Mazda BT 50 has never had a scan tool attached to it.
These newer Escalade's (the 2007 to 2014 generation) with the 6.2 L V8 engine, including active fuel management (AFM) and the six-speed automatic transmission have much better performance than these older (the 1999 to 2001 generation) ones without AFM. They are a lot more reliable, compared to the Lincoln Navigator. These Navigator's, especially the older ones (the 2005 and 2006 model) with the 5.4 L Triton 3-valve V8 engine and the six-speed automatic transmission had a lot of problems. So, this 2011 Cadillac Escalade ESV is the best vehicle in the used market, if you are planning to or need to buy a large SUV with an extended wheelbase. Anyway, these large SUV's and large pick-up trucks are the best, safest vehicles to buy in the used market, because the value is not too high. Thank you very much and have a great first week of 2023.
