What we think

It seems ironic that just as the light appears to be dimming on the large truck and SUV segments, GM unveils its best looking lineup to date. The lines of the 2007 Cadillac Escalade are much crisper, and the promise of tighter gap tolerances and a stronger focus on build quality address two of the main complaints with the existing vehicle.

Lest they think they’ve been forgotten, Cadillac offers a powerful and redesigned luxury pickup truck to spotless general contractors and well-to-do, weekend Home Depot warriors everywhere. Hallelujah.
