The 2017 Cadillac Escalade requires 8.0 liters (8.5 quarts) of 0W-20 synthetic engine oil, which is thinner than other types and is commonly used in very cold weather. Cadillac recommends changing the oil every 7,500 miles, but if you tow frequently or drive in heavy traffic, you may need more frequent oil changes. Your Escalade has an oil life indicator that signals when it's time for service. After the oil change, the indicator should be reset, which can usually be done by the dealership, or you can do it yourself. The typical cost for an oil change for this SUV ranges from $120 to $150, with labor accounting for $30 to $50 of that amount.

    The Cadillac Escalade, a spacious SUV, can accommodate more passengers compared to a sedan, making it heavier and requiring more gas. Potential buyers take this into account when thinking about buying one. It also calls for premium gasoline, which is pricier than regular gas. While the manufacturer advises using premium, regular gas can be an option to save some money on fuel expenses.
