The escalade is the same. $95k CAD list for a low rent interior that only looks slightly different from a Tahoe. Nice enough vehicle to drive, but damn gm could do better than that.

If I was buying a car I'd go European or Japanese. But I have my eye on that ATS from Cadillac. That truly is a really nice vehicle that appeals to me more than a 3 series.

Honestly I'd rather have a Tahoe LTZ than an Escalade. At least the Tahoe isn't pretending....

Never been that big of a fan of the Cadillacs. Every car seems like it was designer using just a ruler. Cool ideas but still think there are better looking cars. Saw a new Lincoln MKZ at the dealer a week ago. Not a bad looking car! Nicely done interior.

I will always be an Audi/VW fan though. While a BMW 3er may be better on the twistys, I think the Audi's are a better car to live with long term. Not to mention on the subject of interiors, I think Audi has the best in the business, behind only the über-high dollar rolls or bentleys. And if Audi's price tag is too high, step down to VW's. Very high quality cars IMO, especially the Toureg or the Passat.

We bought a VW for our family car and we're really impressed with it. If VW puts alot of attention into their budget brand, I imagine they do a good job in their luxury Audi brand.

I had a chance to sit in an A8L at a car show, man, what an awesome car. Mercedes is about the only other car I'd ever consider.

As far as Asian brands go, I like Subaru for their toughness (just don't forget to replace that timing chain!) and the Hyundai for their looks and interior on their higher end models.

I have never been brand loyal. The F150 is IMHO the best looking domestic truck in the market right now. That is why I bought mine.

I love the fact that my truck is an '04 and people ask me if I bought a brand new truck from Ford. Excellent looking truck
