In this video, I install electric running boards and an auto start-stop eliminator on my wife’s 2021 Cadillac Escalade—two upgrades that honestly should’ve come from the factory.
If you’ve ever struggled climbing into an Escalade or been driven crazy by the engine shutting off at every stoplight, these mods are total game changers. The power running boards make getting in and out effortless, and the start-stop eliminator permanently disables one of the most annoying “features” in modern vehicles.
I walk through the install process, talk about why we chose these upgrades, and share real-world thoughts on whether they’re actually worth the time and money.
👉 In this video:
Installing electric/power running boards
Disabling auto start-stop (no more button pressing)
Tips, tricks, and things I learned along the way
Honest thoughts from a husband trying to stay married 😄
If you’re an Escalade owner—or considering one—this video might save you some frustration.
