2004 Cadillace Escalade 123,599 miles Brand New Transmission 20” Chrome Rims and Custom Grille VIN 1GYEK63N24R238860 We are selling our 2004 Cadillac Escalade. We purchased this from a family friend in October of 2006, coming off of lease. We originally paid $37,770, with 34,390 miles. My wife drives this 4 days a week for the past seven years to commute to work, which is about 10 miles each way. She has averaged about 12,000 miles per year. Other than that, we use it to haul the 3 kids here and there. We are selling the truck because I recently purchased a new vehicle, so the wife has the itch for a new truck. We are going to sell this and get a late model Yukon or Tahoe. We have had this for just over seven years, and my wife has treated this truck better than me. She washes it by hand every weekend, towel drying and vacuuming. It’s a beautiful looking truck. The dark tinted windows against the white paint, along with the aftermarket chrome 20” rims make this truck stand out when she comes down the street. Not to mention, the aftermarket exhaust makes a sweet deep rumble. It really is a special car. We almost traded it in last year, and just as we were in the process of shopping for a new car, there was an issue with the transmission. Instead of taking a chance on a $700 repair, we decided to have the dealer install a new GM Certified Transmission with a 3 year/100,000 mile warranty (parts and labor) for a cost to us of $3,300! So, our loss is your gain! It would have been much more difficult to sell a truck with a transmission issue, so we bit the bullet. With that being said, this is probably the only Escalade on the market with a new transmission. Below is a list of everything I can think of regarding both the positives, and the potential future work needed: Awesome Features: Brand new GM Transmission with 3 year/100,000 mile parts and labor warranty. This was replaced in the beginning of February. We paid $3,300. All work was done by Holman Cadillac in Turnersville, NJ. 20” Chrome Tezzen Struck aftermarket wheels with 295/50 tires. Original cost was $2,555 (I have a copy of the invoice). The 295/50 low profile really makes the wheels stand out. I do have the original wheels if you would prefer. I included a picture of these. All four tires are approximately 12 months old. This is about a $800-$1,000 value. Custom aftermarket chrome grille. Original cost was $1,269 (I have a copy of the invoice). Navigation Sirius On-Star Heated Leather Seats Overhead DVD Entertainment Tow package (we never used it) 3rd row seating 2 owners All work (including oil changes) performed by a Cadillac Dealership (other than new tires) All service records Treated like a baby Any time I sell a car, I list everything that I am aware of that would need to be done to the vehicle. I would hope someone does the same for me. You can be assured anything listed is everything we are aware of. Potential upcoming maintenance: You may want to have spark plugs replaced along with regular maintenance items that you would usually replace for a car this age. There are two messages that show up on the dashboard: One references the tire pressure. Because these are aftermarket wheels, without the internal tire pressure gauge, this warning pops up that the computer doesn’t read the pressure from the tires. This of course isn’t an issue, as the tires are fine, but it does show up. The other is for the Ride Service Control. There is some type of rear shock that adjusts the height of the back of the truck depending on what is loaded in the back. The compressor no longer works, but we never noticed a difference. We didn’t notice any change in the ride, so we opted not to repair it. Your choice. The paint is immaculate, but you’ll see there are two small spots missing paint on the passenger front bumper. I actually didn’t notice this until I took pictures of the car. The air conditioner will sometimes blow warm on one side. After a few minutes, or when the car is restarted, it will correct itself. I’ve looked it up and it could be low on freon which is an easy fix. However, we have not had it assessed by the dealer. DVD player can be quirky. Every once in a while, we have to turn the car off then on again to get it to read the disc. We are sad to see the Escalade go, as it’s been good to us. Please give me a call on my cell at 610-389-8472 or email at johnplumley@gmail.com if you have any questions or you would like to come by to check it out. Thanks, John

Genesis cars win accolades, offer value — so why are sales so bad?
Tue, Jul 31 2018My high-school buddy Brent Cormier was so smitten with the Genesis G80 when he saw it at an event I hosted at SXSW in 2016 he bought a used 2013 Hyundai Genesis a short time later and fell in love with the car. "It surpasses my every expectation," said Cormier, a self-described "renaissance man" who owns and runs a real estate agency with his wife Laura, is a food service executive chef and part owner of Austin-based Thin the Herd Guitars. "I was locked into Mercedes and Audi for 10 years," he added. "And felt trapped in an endless pit of maintenance costs." After owning the Genesis over the past two years — including using it as an Uber and Lyft driver to earn extra cash — Cormier learned what some frugal luxury sedan buyers and a handful of car reviewers have discovered: Genesis offers great bang for the buck compared to other premium brands and can compete with the best in terms of performance, features and comfort. Hyundai's luxury brand also earned a prominent third-party endorsement last week when for the first time Genesis topped J.D. Power's 2018 APEAL study, surpassing German luxury-performance icon Porsche. The APEAL study (which stands for Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) "measures owners' emotional attachment and level of excitement across 77 attributes," ranging from performance to comfort, and asks nearly 68,000 owners of new 2018 models to score vehicles on a 1,000-point scale. In its second year ranked as a stand-alone brand, Genesis earned an APEAL score that bumped it up 15 points to 884 and helped push it past Porsche — and past BMW, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volvo, Cadillac, Land Rover and Lexus, in order of ranking. Last month, Genesis also topped J.D. Power's Initial Quality Survey (IQS) for the first time this year. And both its models were awarded Top Safety Pick Plus ratings by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, among 11 Plus ratings in all for Korean vehicles. Despite high J.D. Power rankings and great reviews, Genesis U.S. sales were off 50 percent for the first six months of 2018 compared to 2017, and in June Genesis sold only 796 vehicles — the first time U.S. numbers dropped below 1,000 in a month. Part of Genesis's APEAL and IQS success can be attributed to its small product lineup: just two models, the G80 and G90 sedans, with a third, the 2019 G70, launching later this year. And while those numbers may help in J.D.
Cadillac ELR next EV to get Plugless Power wireless charging tech
Mon, Jul 28 2014Evatran has been testing its Plugless Power wireless charging systems for electric vehicles in the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf for years now and made the tech commercially available early this year. With the growth of the EV market, Evatran is getting ready to expand as well. The company announced today that it will add three premium EVs to the Plugless Power system by the end of the year, with the first (and so far only) named model being the Cadillac ELR. We expect it was not difficult for Evatran to adapt the Plugless Power system to the ELR, since the vehicle's powertrain is so similar to the one in the Volt. The main problem we see is that Cadillac has only sold 390 ELRs (as of the end of June), so this first Plugless Power expansion isn't exactly going to ignite sales, even if every ELR owner opts for the cool tech. If one of the next two announcement is for the Tesla Model S, though, then you're talking numbers. Speaking of the future, what models do you think will be next? The Plugless Power L2 wireless systems were recently declared safe by the Intertek and start at $2,470, not including installation or government incentives. All the online/smartphone connectivity features that work with the car when it's got a cord stuck in it work with the L2 system, Evatran says. Orders start today, and the ELR package will be available September 1. There's more, including a local news report on the technology, below. WSLS 10 NBC in Roanoke/Lynchburg Va Wireless Vehicle Charging available to Cadillac ELR owners starting September 1st The Cadillac ELR Joins the Growing List of Compatible Electric Vehicle ("EV") Models from Evatran, the World Leader in High-Power Wireless Charging RICHMOND, VA July 28, 2014 – In an exciting statement today, Evatran Group, Inc. ("Evatran"), announced that its PLUGLESS wireless charging technology would soon be available on the Cadillac ELR. Evatran, the first Company in the world to make wireless charging available to individual EV drivers, currently has systems that are compatible with the Nissan LEAF and Chevrolet Volt. The Cadillac ELR is the first model to be announced in what is intended to be three new premium model announcements by the end of 2014. Evatran will begin accepting advanced orders today for deliveries as soon as September 1st. "The launch of the Cadillac ELR system is an important milestone for us," commented Rebecca Hough, Evatran CEO and Co-Founder.
Cadillac boss: Don't ask why we have so many sedans
Tue, Dec 1 2015Ugh, crossovers. Car-based, high-riding station wagons, for some reason, sell in absurd numbers and make automakers lots and lots of money. That's why automakers with a strong lineup of CUVs are running strong, while sedan-heavy brands are struggling. Cadillac is all too aware of this fact. While the company is preparing to launch the new CT6 luxury sedan, it's also realizing four sedans, a coupe, a crossover, and a $73,000, old-school, body-on-frame SUV does not a healthy lineup make. Worse, though, as Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen rued during the LA Auto Show, is that the new CT6 is joining a segment already oversaturated. While it's a big, expensive vehicle, it's not much bigger or more expensive than the CTS and XTS sedans. "Please don't ask me why we have three cars in the same segment," de Nysschen said, stopping midway through an interview with Automotive News on the CT6's market placement to make the crack. "That's a whole different subject." As for those CUVs, the new XT5 debuted in LA, and it will eventually be joined by another much-needed CUV in 2018, AN reports. Related Video:
