First Drive: 2007 Cadillac Escalade
Maybe it's the style that accounts for impressive sales, maybe it's the snowball effect after a Hollywood superstar was first spotted in one, or maybe, just maybe, buyers are interested in Cadillacs again. Whatever the reason, the Escalade is a rarity, a GM success story, and the updated 2007 model will surely keep the momentum going, especially since it stickers for the same price as the 2006 truck. Those responsible for the Escalade's popularity, the shoppers who fork over more than $50,000, are as diverse as they come. You're just as likely to see a black-and-chrome Escalade driven around your cul-de-sac by a 60-year-old executive as rolling along Sunset Boulevard with someone famous behind those deeply-tinted windows. Or maybe it's a regular guy who's just borrowing it for the night. Regardless, everyone feels like they're big pimpin' in the 2007 Cadillac Escalade, a ride that offers a surprising level of refinement, a potent powertrain, a long list of features, and a proud background for the Cadillac crest.
