In the Autoblog Garage: 2007 Cadillac Escalade

Wednesday, December 31st, 1969

The Cadillac Escalade is good looking, charismatic, and larger-than-life — both literally and figuratively. People we encountered wanted to be in it, and one of the most common refrains heard was, “You’re driving.” We were happy to oblige.

If you were to compare the gaggle of new GMT900 utility vehicles to the Rat Pack, Escalade, without a doubt, would be Sinatra. It’s fully aware of what it is, and it makes no apologies; this is perhaps its most endearing quality. So many vehicles nowadays bend over backwards to be non-controversial that it makes things boring after a while. The Escalade embraces its excesses, and does so in a manner that one can’t help but enjoy. The idea of a truck-turned-luxobus is no longer a new concept, but it’s one that’s executed very well in Cadillac’s latest high-profile, leather-lined blingwagon.

Unlike the other GMT900s (

Yukon , Tahoe, Suburban, and Avalanche), selecting the big Caddy is a choice that’s made specifically because of its substantial cachet - cost be damned. If price was really a consideration, a fully-loaded Yukon Denali will give you just about everything the Escalade has — minus some of the glitz and around 20 horsepower - for $10,000 - $15,000 less.

So there you have the setup. Follow the jump for our detailed impressions after having one in the garage for a week.
