drove an 07 escalade today

[caraudiodave]

i know its nothing special, but we got one in at work, and i must say, WOW! we have 07 tahoes and yukons, but those are slow. the tahoe has a nicer interior than the yukon (the fake wood ruins it).

the escalade was real pimp. i felt like a milllllllllion bux driving it. it has stock 22" rims, navi, XM, front/rear seat warmers, rear video...

its way more powerful than the tahoes and yukons, and the leather feels real nice. much better than the previous escalade.

it retails at $65k but my work got it for $51k since we buy more GMs than ANYONE else.

Doesn't it have an optional (400 or 500?) hp engine?

My dad called me today and said he picked up his '07 today. He is driving it for 3 months then floating it for 6months as my moms car. He said it is ridiculous how nice it is... :baller:

One of the big auto mags (MT, C&D, or R&T) rated it higher than the top Land Rover that costs $80k. However, at $60-69k, the Caddy ain't exactly chump change.

Where do you work?

[caraudiodave]

i cant say, but its a rental car agency. yes we have lots of high end cars, vette 'vert, BMW 6-series, and so on. in my area the escalade is our nicest car.

I have heard many positive reviews about that new platform, especially in the new Yukon Denali. They bored out the 6.0 Vortec I guess to a 6.2 now, pretty nice power.

[caraudiodave]

now we got a lotus elise at work. dam that thing can handle, but not as much power as id expect. i guess were going high end now.
