Cadillac Escalade - What the Auto Press Says

The 2010 Cadillac Escalade ranks 1 out of 11 Luxury large SUVs. This ranking is based on our analysis of 75 published reviews and test drives of the Cadillac Escalade, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
The Cadillac Escalade roars into 2010 with look-at-me styling, an impressive cabin, and good performance for its size.

The 2010 Escalade makes sense for buyers who need to haul a lot of people or tow boats and horse trailers, and want to do both in style.Edmunds says the Escalade is "one of the best full-size luxury SUVs on the market."
The Escalade can seat up to eight people and comes in four models: the Escalade, Escalade ESV (an extended version), the Excalade Ext(which trades the third row seat and enclosed cargo area for a short truck bed) and the EScalade Hybird.
The Escalade's size and power give it a thirst for fuel, though for 2010, that thirst has been tempered a little. The Escalade's 6.2 liter V8 engine now comes with cylinder deactivation, a system that shuts down four of the engines cylinders when they're not needed, saving fuel. If you want to save even more gas, check out the Escalade Hybrid.
In addition to cylinder deactivation, the Cadillac Escalade also adds a USB port for portable music devices and side-thorax airbags for the front seats for 2010.
General Motors, Cadillac's parent company, recently declared bankruptcy. While that leads to some uncertainty for Cadillac buyers (though warranties should e honored), it also means some steep discounts for people who can handle the unknown and negotiate hard.

When checking out the Escalade, also consider the Toyota land crusier, which offers more off-road capability and the Lincon navigator, which has a more useable third row.
