Cadillac Escalade 1st Gen listings10 for sale now
Cadillac entered the luxury SUV segment in 1999 with the Escalade, a model famously developed in just 10 months. It was a direct response to the Lincoln Navigator and was based heavily on the GMC Yukon Denali. The first generation, built on the GMT400 platform, featured a 255 hp 5.7L Vortec V8, full-time all-wheel drive, and a plush interior with Zebrano wood trim. For years, these were simply used SUVs, but they're now gaining a following for their 1990s nostalgia and status as a pop culture icon.
Buying Tips
- Check for rust on the frame, rocker panels, and rear wheel arches, as this is a common GMT400 issue.
- Inspect the driver's seat for heavy wear and cracked leather, and test all power functions as interior components are prone to failure.
- Listen for whining or grinding from the drivetrain; the full-time AWD system's transfer case and front differential can be problematic.
- Look for signs of coolant leaks around the intake manifold, a known issue on the 5.7L Vortec V8.
- Verify all electronics, including the Bose stereo system and power accessories, function correctly.
