I purchased this vehicle with my 3 children in mind. I was looking for a premium vehicle with a 3rd row and of course, captain seats. The 2014 escalade fulfilled the requirements, and then some! The quality of the vehicle is absolutely suburb. Every single detail in the Escalade portrays a vehicle of luxury. It is very roomy especially in the 2nd and 3rd rows. You can walk to the back through the center aisle with no difficulty. The DVD system is an added plus. The mileage to the gallon is as expected with the car. We had a cold winter this year, and the children appreciate the 2nd row seat warmers. The trunk space is sufficient. I can fit a side by side city select stroller in the back. My only issues are with 1: the cargo space. There is no cargo net (as well as no capability to add a cargo net). So when I open the trunk, almost everything and anything will spill out. 2. my vehicle just hit 80,000 miles and the ride is now super bouncy. I can feel every bump as I am driving. The passenger is sure to get a spout of car sickness after a 30 minute ride! The service department states that it needs new shocks, and boy are they expensive!

I love the way the Cadillac drives. The car handles very smoothly even though it's a large vehicle. I'm also able to make sharp or tight turns that I wasn't able to make in my previous smaller cars. The rear view/backup camera is incredibly accurate and helpful, it definitely allowed me to become more comfortable when I was getting used to driving it. There is plenty of space in the seating area as well as in the trunk which is a must-have for a family. It doesn't necessarily have the best gas mileage but what can you expect for an SUV that size. The interior is wonderful with beautiful leather and wood details. There's also plenty of storage space for the little items and knick-knacks. The heated and cooled seats are also great for the respective seasons.
