Overview

Part of the midsize pickup truck segment, the 2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT Crew Cab competes with the GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab Denali, the RAM 1500 Crew Cab Laramie, and the Ford F-150 SuperCrew King Ranch. A base price of MSRP $63,060 gets you a 6.2L V8 engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission. Despite the price going up to $69,640, this single powertrain is found in all three trim levels. This engine produces 403 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque, achieving a 0-60 of 6.2 seconds, and is offered as a 4WD. The Cadillac Escalade EXT Crew Cab offers a single bed of 4.4 feet with a payload capacity of 1,239 pounds. It also offers a healthy towing capacity of 7,600 pounds.

Buying Advice

We recommend skipping the base model and going for the mid-level Luxury trim that adds a sunroof, upgraded suspension and many more safety features with a pricing difference of $4,190.
