Nice, 6.2?

Not sure to be honest.. It's a six thousand dollar run around town truck. Sharing the car with Stacy was getting old in a hurry.

I can say it's pretty damn quick so it might be. I haven't even opened the hood.. It's an escalade on newer wheels for 6... So we just bought it because we needed something badly. I'll keep it for awhile and then send it down the road on a newer navigator.

What happened to your truck? I remember the accident when you were rolling to D-land...

Looks like a super clean Caddy Dave. :thumbup: You'll love how that handles your boat. How many miles on it?

Looks like a 2nd generation..02-06

They either had the 5.3 or 6.0 depending on if it was just rwd or awd.

Looks clean for 10 years old!!

So? Clean SUVs and trucks bring a premium, Dave got a deal.
Click to expand...

He got a great deal :thumbup

But at 176k miles, they're not worth $20k, that's all I was trying to say.

$10k-ish for sure, maybe a tick more depending on options and condition :thumbup

We traded in our 06 last year for the new F150. It was a great SUV with only 92k miles. Identical to the one you have down to the 07 22's, E&G grille and cap, Corsa exhaust.
Got 14K trade in for it.

Should be the lq9 high output 6.0.

Good motor about 345 hp. It would be amazing if the transmission hasn't been replaced at that mileage.

I've had since new an 03 denali version of this with 164k on it now. My wife drove the wheels off it most of its life but the past few years it has just been an extra vehicle. It has been one of the best and most reliable low maintenance vehicles i've ever owned and i just can't get myself to get rid of it for what i'd get for it.

It even made the trip to Pennsylvania and now its the go to vehicle to drive to the ski resort 3 days a week. (80 mile round trip)


I've always worried about the tranny in it but there has been no issues so far! I guess we've been lucky.

Everything's for sale.. Lol. But yes I will sell it. It doesn't have the car seat attachments I need so the car seat situation is a pain in the ass.. After one day the picture became pretty clear that this probably isn't going to work for my program.

Those attachments are nice. I only have 1 kid in a seat and I would go crazy without them

Car seats are cheap. Just have a set in each car

Car seats for all the cars is a must for our program. Burb, my truck, moms car, and nanny. Too much hassle to be doing the shuffle. I'm going to disagree on the cheap part though. [emoji16]

Dude for 6G's in the condition this thing is in you buy it.. Who cares about the rest.

I will admit though I kinda figured it had the attachments.. Almost all mom wagons have them.

Uh.... ya, I'm gonna disagree with that. The car seat we have for my daughter is $300. Granted, it is a high end one but they are definitely not cheap. At least the ones that are easy to use arent.

Agreed. Between my 3 cars I have around 1k in car seats for 1 kid.

Even if ya drop 1k on car seats, it's still puts the whole program at 7k... What could ya get for 7k to replace a Caddy ? Food for thought.

Hard to believe LATCH anchors and tethers weren't standard on everything in '06...they have been for some time now
