Hi, first sorry for my english, we are french and we will arrive in Boston very soon.

We are looking for an Suburban or an Escalade esv.

I have a question, on this model, could we remove (not fold up but completely remove) the second and/or the third row of seats? (easily/quickly of course)

because we have 2 dogs who needs lot of space (more than 120lbs)

 

Welcome to the forum.

The 2001-2014 had removable third row seats and fold and tumble second row. The 2001-2006 second row wound up w/ a flat surface whereas the 2007-2014 didn't.

The second row is bolted in on all of them and would require some time to remove.

 

thanks a lot!

and when the second row is wound up with a flat surface, it's at the same level than the floor of the cargo space or raised?

 

We have a 93 and 05 Suburban. With the 3rd row out and 2nd row folded you get a flat surface that has plenty of room for your dogs. I'm a veterinarian and used to haul around a 160 lb Great Dane & 70 lb Golden Retriever! BTW welcome to the U.S. and your English is fine!

 

Thanks! it's great!!!

We thought about 07 because of the "new" motor. Your 05 is not too "thirsty"?

 

ps: we come with a grandpa Rottweiler (9yrs old) and a baby (11months old) Cane Corso

 

Haha you will spend more on dog food than gas. We average 15mpg daily diving and 18+ on highway long trips.
BTW if you haven't already, check out pet insurance for your baby. Giant breeds sometimes have giant problems requiring expensive specialist care. I steer my clients toward Trupanion as an excellent accident/illness policy.

 

thanks I will check that!
