Mine also had a steering wheel cover on it when purchased in 2021. Simply removing it improved the steering feel a great deal. $5k in PA with 125k miles was a steal in this area…but it needed almost nothing
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! ITS CRAZY TO THINK THEY ARE THAT OLD ALREADY. I REMEMBER WHEN THEY CAME OUT AND WANTING ONE. KEEP IT IN GOOD SHAPE AND ITLL TREAT YOU GOOD AND HOLDS ITS VALUE.
I have a 1999 Escalade, Love it. Has 191K on it. White with dark tinted windows lol best travel SUV I've had. Rear-end likes to whine but it has been like that for 2 years now. Just had a new steering box put in from blue top made a world of a difference, made it stiff but not to to bad. rest of the parts Rock Auto has been my best friend lol.
I have one of these 150k on it. Love it 👍. Only one thing wrong with it is when in the summer it doesn't want to shift into drive but in the winter it does with no problem so confusing 🤔
HAVE YOU DROPPED THE PAN AND CHANGED THE FILTER AND FLUID? THEY ARE STILL GREAT LOOKING TRUCKS EVEN TO THIS DAY. CRAZY TO THING THEY ARE OVER 20 YEARS OLD NOW. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING
@@uptownautogarage6833 ya I did at around 87k and replace the little gadget that's on the steering column that locks you out from putting it in gear unless the ignition is engaged which was no fun to install 🤦♂️🤣 so I just put it in natural before starting it 👍
Just purchased one with 252k miles runs like a top no leaks but had that sloppy steering...did you fix that and what was the cause? Also..what color is it? mine is the same color but have to codes to see what color it is if you could let me know this color..greatly appreciated.
ITS HARD TO BELIVE THESE TRUCKS ARE OVER 20 YEARS OLD ALREADY. PARTS ARE GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO COME BY. BOUGHT A WHOLE TRUCK FOR PARTS FOR THIS RIG. ONE OF THESE DAYS ILL GET BACK ON IT. STILL SITTING HERE. TOOK IT FOR A DRIVE THE OTHER DAY FIRED RIGHT UP. GREAT TRUCKS. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
ITS WAS A FAIR DEAL BUT I HAVE DOUBLE ALMOST TRIPLE INTO IT NOW WITH GETTING IT ALL SORTED OUT. ILL LET EVERYONE KNOW WHAT I GOT IT FOR IN THE NEXT VIDEO OR TWO
I believe it would be worth the effort to mask and buff the doors where the trim is. Buff with rust removal pad on grinder or drill and airbrush finish. Still not expensive but this is the way to get rid of old rust.
Have plans to clean it up. I know to do it right would have to replace the doors but not trying to go that far with something this old. Just bring it back to a nice daily driver. Picking up a parts truck and hopefully going to be able to finish this build up and enjoy it. Thanks for watching!

Keep in mind those are defrost mirrors so the glass is not exactly the same as the 88-98 SUVs and trucks
