[GMguy84]

Looks like ill be cutting off more slow "left lane jerks" (Mostly Oklahoma drivers) cars "in style"

Decide to keep the burban as a work only delivery truck and pick up something else as a nice family hauler.............Sooooooooooooooo

This deal was TO GOOD to pass, So I'm now a proud Caddy owner !!!!!!!! My LSX mechanic came with me to Ft Worth dealer and gave it the "GREEN LIGHT" !!

Unrelated question, but where do you find these cars?

A Subaru Forester could haul the family also.

LOL Ummmmmmm.........I'll be nice and say a Forester is not practical for my needs and not my "Cup Of Tea"

And sorry but 99% of Subaru drivers I have encountered on road ARE those left lane hogs/EXTREMELY slow drivers. I put them in the "Prius/Hybrid" crowd. 100% NOPE, never in my driveway !!!

Facebook marketplace. It's >THE'E< place to bargain shop now. They KILLED off Craigslist when they got greedy a few years ago and charged $5 to list a car for sale.

+ No one ever goes on craigslist anymore........At least here in Dallas

Enjoy your new ride. That would be fun to take to the 49er games at Levi Stadium.

 

[thastinger]

No, as owning a 16 YO SUV doesn't make you a snob.

Ya Football was never my thing. But I did grow up/lived in SF bay area(peninsula) back in the '80's/90's/2010's. I was even in that BIG '89 quake

SF bay area fo life

LOL, General public judges by the "badge" on the grille and most have no clue on the actual age of the vehicle

Great find! How many miles?

So would a Yugo.

Polish the headlights and it’ll look brand new, usually those things are clapped out and look horrible, that truck is crazy clean!

 

[SZR48207]

If it was stored in a hangar since new then the headlights wouldn't be yellow...?

 

[Barkleymut]

$8500 with 80k miles....am I close?

 

[BAJA_05]

Was there not a time that Escalades were not the #1 stolen vehicle for multiple multiple years in a row?

 

[Oil_Whisperer]

Nice score.
I'll guess 45K miles. I have no idea what they are worth.

 

[loneryder]

$8500 with 80k miles....am I close?

$5k 90k miles

Okay he did't say parked ! some people have nothing better to do than nit pick posts apart.

 

[CKN]

16 year old SUV=SNOB. Well on BITOG that's like a new car compared to many.

And yes-it wasn't parked inside all that much with those yellow headlights.

On edit-I would call that a "score". Verses what you called score for a 20 year old Suburban with 300,000 miles on it.
Of course-how many miles on it?

 

[redhat]

Beautiful Escalade, congrats, great price and miles. That would instantly be double up here in Buffalo.

 

[BAJA_05]

Hope it treats you better then that 08 Silverado with the 4.8L that I actually think you said "score" on also!!! :O
