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

Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers
Wed, Aug 14 2024Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.
GM Super Cruise is evolving into Ultra Cruise, for hands-off city driving
Wed, May 20 2020GM has a "big team" working on an advanced version of its hands-free driving assistance system, Super Cruise, that will expand its capability beyond highways and apply it to city streets, the automaker's vice president of global product development Doug Parks said Tuesday. GM is also continuing to improve its existing Super Cruise product, Parks said during a webcasted interview at Citi’s 2020 Car of the Future Symposium. "As we continue to ratchet up Super Cruise, we continue to add capability and not just highway roads," Parks said, adding that a separate team is working on the hands-free city driving product known internally as "Ultra Cruise." "We're trying to take that same capability off the highway," he said. "Ultra cruise would be all of the Super Cruise plus the neighborhoods, city streets and subdivisions. So Ultra Cruise's domain would be essentially all driving, all the time." Parks was quick to add that this would not be autonomous driving. Advanced driving assistance systems have become more capable, but they still require a human driver to take control and to be paying attention. "What we're not saying is that Ultra Cruise will be fully autonomous 100% of the time, although that could be one of the end games," Parks said. Parks didn't provide a timeline for when Ultra Cruise might be available. A GM spokesperson said in a statement after his interview that the company continues to expand its hands-free driver assistance system technology across its vehicle portfolio and has "teams looking at how we can expand the capabilities to more scenarios." GM said it "does not have a name or anything specific to announce today, but stay tuned." This new Ultra Cruise feature would put it in competition with Tesla's Autopilot advanced driving system, which is largely viewed as the most capable on the market today. Tesla's "full self-driving" package, a more capable version of Autopilot, can now identify stop signs and traffic lights and automatically slows the car to a stop on approach. This feature is still considered to be in beta. GM's Super Cruise uses a combination of lidar map data, high-precision GPS, cameras and radar sensors, as well as a driver attention system, which monitors the person behind the wheel to ensure theyÂ’re paying attention. Unlike TeslaÂ’s Autopilot driver assistance system, users of Super Cruise do not need to have their hands on the wheel. However, their eyes must remain directed straight ahead.
Gimp Pimp and Aqua Volvo at 24 Hours of LeMons | Car Club USA
Tue, Mar 22 2016Car Club USA heads to Sonoma, CA where the Gimp Pimp Cadillac and Aqua Volvo will take on all the crazy, sub-$500 competition at the 24 Hours of LeMons endurance race. "Over the last 30 years, car racing has gotten extremely serious and extremely expensive and it just seemed like there was a real need to make it accessible again," said LeMons founder Jay Lamm. The result is a series of endurance races across the US and Australia where all you need to join the fun is a junky car and some basic safety equipment. "It's just fun, compared to pro racing," said Wendy Epstein, driver of a 1979 Volvo 242 in bright "Aqua Volvo" livery. "24 Hours of LeMons is a form of racing that is designed to be cheap and easy, and anybody can do it," said Bill Manfroy, driver of the Gimp Pimp, a 1996 Cadillac SLS with some important modifications. "Part of what makes the Gimp Pimp Cadillac so special is that it does have hand controls, so it gives access to people like me that ordinarily get to race." "Which makes it perfect for LeMons." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.
