>>16073694
i'm gonna level with you dude, the price is fucking outrageous for a typical shit-tier gm product, but if chebby can charge that much money for a steaming heap of dog shit, they must truly know that there's a sucker born every minute.

>>16073694
I mean you could get the full house in just a Tahoe LTZ, just about the same price almost.

>but muh magnetic ride control
Then get a Yukon Denali.

>>16073871

Or make the spawn ride in a shitty Terrain and buy a Corvette. I don't think I could ever spend $110k on a 'Lade, If I could write it off on taxes as a business expense, maybe.

>shitposting my name like I'm a tripfag

pls

>>16073694
Whatever GM says as the "starting price" you can usually tack on another 20k

Go look on ebay or online or at a dealership, almost all of the Escalades are going for 90-100k

My aunt bought one in 2008 and it was 60-70k. Not even a decade later and they're charging 40-50% more.

>>16073871
>implying any SUV should be costing 60-70 fucking grand

>>16073954
lol what

who is paying $100k for an escalade?

>>16073954

Fully optioned out they go for around 120k. 90% of them are likely leased though. They depreciate like a motherfucker too.

>>16073694

Not even. Try building one online or going to an actual dealership. That's how much they cost.

nice damage control you shill

>>16074180
Work trucks and fleet sales. Mostly.

>>16074180
For the labor unions. It's asocial welfare program.
Want to know something funny? Because of the UAW, GM was and may still be, the #1 health insurance provider in the US. How fucked up is that? They're just suppose to be an automobile manufacturer.

>>16073694

The nice thing about an Escalade is that you can immediately tell that the owner has more money than sense.

>>16074237

>>16074237
I thought owning a prius makes you not a car enthusiast.

besides, as much as i hate the fact that housewives drive this largebarges just to transport their one shitfaced child and their groceries, they are pretty comfy, and wouldn't mind owning one myself, both for a DD and a workhorse.

It's close but not quite the same. 'Lades look classier and ride slightly better. Clients will think higher of you when you show up in a Escalade.

No wonder you never, NEVER see these on the road.

What 3rd world shithole do you live in? I live in a oil city and I see 50 Escalades a day. GM trucks usually run forever, you'll find lots with over 400k miles and little maintenance. Enjoy your $1500 oil changes on that X5M.

That depreciation.. Though I'd expected it to be in the $15k - 20k range.

>>16074717
So many people buy these things and sell them once the next gen is out which is around every 7 years

an escalade weighs over 5500 lbs - you are only paying like $13.50 per pound.

>>16074724
Nope. It happens to those precious German and Japanese imports too. Dat's cars mang.

>>16074724
There are many in the $15-20k range but they are from 2007-2008 and have well over 100,000 miles.

You might as well be buying a 6000 lb paperweight.

White trash confirmed

I really wanted to assimilate back into the ether of anons and join the shitposting, but it seems I have to clarify what the point of this thread is for the autistic folk.

I'm not shilling for this... thing. I posted the outrageous price and then the same vehicle with a different badge below it. I'm saying that they charge way too much for what is essentially a Tahoe with some leather and a different badge.

And no, I do not want this. I would never want this. I would buy a V-sport and was disappointed when the CT8 was axed in favor of this stupid overpriced meme on wheels. I can't afford the V-sports either, by the way, and I think they're amazing.

>Are you the type of person to slam Cadillac for having options that cost money but defend the M4 for not having leather at the base price?


So much fucking this! i don't understand how people will look at that and say

then turn around and say
>"this plastic cloth M4 can't be compared to that plastic Camaro or Mustang its more expensive than because its a luxury car"

>>16073694
Sadly, the suburban is also pretty pricey. And possibly the best named suv around now that I think about it...

>>16073694
Not surprising, given its popularity in livery fleets (Cadillac badge prestige) and with richfags (Can tow without grenading its transmission, unlike German/Japanese Luxo-SUVS).

The Escalade may have been conceived as a nigger wagon, but it's realized a much greater profit potential for GM.

>>16074717
God damn those look dated.

Now I understand why the RX-8 looks good.

Westchester County and Fairfield County.

I also spend a lot of time in the Midwest for work.

Fairfield County contains Greenwich and the Golden Triangle, the wealthiest place in the country.

I see Tesla, Maserati and Merc. everywhere but no fucking Cadillac SUV.

Maybe a CTS-V, I see one every so often everywhere.

I also avoid areas populated with mostly minorities in NY. It's difficult in the Midwest.

Who knows I couldn't afford a 75K SUV anyway I drive a used Volvo Polestar.
