A few months ago, Shaquille O’Neal made the revelation of having 40-plus cars in his garage. Since then, the $500 net worth has not all quietly, added a few more automobiles to his collection. Previously, he vowed to stop after purchasing a Tesla Cybertruck, but ended up purchasing a total of 3. However, it seems he is regretting that decision, and that’s why he has added Escalade IQ from a trusted dealership.
You won’t be surprised to find out that it’s not just one of the Cadillac’s 2025 Escalade IQ in his collection. In fact, it’s the third one, and Effortless Motors has delivered many cars to Shaq and made sure to deliver them. CEO Ahmad Abdelrahman reached the Lakers legend’s house and brought the third Escalade IQ with him. The 7-seater Electric SUV starts at $127,700, and plus it has some customization from the Riverside-based dealership. But Shaq did not like it.
“Shaq, what’s up? What’s up, man? I told you it was coming through, man. Got your IQ, man. Custom-made, how you wanted it.” The reply from the 4x NBA icon was cold. “No, that’s the wrong color, bro.” In the video, Shaquille O’Neal said the color of choice he wanted was dark gray and not the off-gray in the video. Shaq even said, “That’s too light. I hate that color…No, you’re gonna have to take that back. Got two of them, so I can wait.” So, did they take it back?
“I’m gonna redo the entire car again, and I’m gonna bring it back out here, man. I’m gonna call a transporter, take it back to LA, and we’re gonna make it right,” said the owner.”I promise we’re gonna make it right. I promise you we’ll be back with the right color this time.” Next, we see Ahmad Abdelrahman and his team taking the car back, and that’s when Shaquille O’Neal called to put an end to it. Not to their relationship, but to the joke.
It started with “I just wanted to say one thing, Ha Ha Got Youu, bring it back.” Just like that, love for Escalade continues as it’s the third one in his collection. But before being so enthusiastic about the new car, Shaq loved

The revelation came during the latest Big Podcast with comedy legend Karlous Miller. “I was into the Cyber Trucks, but they don’t get enough, I want to say what’s the word I’m looking for, electric mileage? Yeah, charger mileage.” As per Big Diesel, the EV doesn’t give him enough distance for the amount of energy (in kWh) used to travel that distance. That’s why he switched to a new machine.
“Then I just got one of those IQs system Escalade today, I was in Vegas, I ain’t have to charge up for four days.” Shaquille O’Neal compared the situation with his Cybertruck. “My cyber truck here if I go downtown to work tonight and come back, my gonna be struggling to get back. Right now it says 267 if I go to Atlanta to the thing and come back, when I come back it ain’t going to be…”
After having three of Elon Musk’s Teslas, Shaq has changed his mind. After all, previously too, it’s the same Effotless Motors who did the customization in those vehicles. At one time, the Lakers legend dealt with 8 vehicles to Ahmad Abdelrahman. And now that he has loved the light gray Escalade, it seems more likely that the relationship will continue.
