Yeah, that’s an SUV. 

Cars are generally depreciating assets. Ergo, buying one that performs similar functions with a similar safety profile but at lower cost and with less depreciation could be referred to as “smarter.”

This is a very fair and remarkably accurate statement.

Tesla is not a tech company. Google is a tech company. Intel is a tech company. AMD? You guessed it: TECH. COMPANY.

I’ve been defending Jalopnik writers against the appearance of an anti-GM bias for the last couple of days. I may be wrong. Yet another “GM is Bad” post? I would have been with you if you had stayed with GM needs to capitalize on their tech R&D. I agree that GM’s lackluster stock price is a reflection of the markets’…

Check my numbers, but I show the Escalade demolishing everything else out there.

I’m glad I’m not the only person who’s noticed this.  I tend to chalk it up to the Caddy interiors being competitive with what’s around at the time of their release, but falling behind whatever comes out next.  But isn’t that true of pretty much all cars?  You don’t see people making the same comments about the…

Everything you wrote about what Cadillac should be sums up the Escalade.

My point was actually about how the interior is used as a talking point by the journalists covering it.

I’m hallucinating on lead fuel

It will fail, most people want wagons with manual transmissions, and crank windows.

If everyone buys everything else then why are there so many Escalades around?

Seriously? This looks good?

I keep reading comments and then scrolling up to the picture to see what the hell people are talking about. I don’t see what the hell people are talking about!

Meh. They’re both whatever. Neither is particularly attractive or ugly to me. They both look like big SUVs. They’re both going to sell a bunch. See you in 5-7 years when we do this all over again.

Every GM Jalopnik article ever

My father fought in WW2. I don’t know how accurate this was, but his view was that scrap collection, victory gardens, and the like were a way to help keep people on the home front invested in the war, rather than a necessity. In other words, taking a part off your car wasn’t going to actually make more tanks, but…

That is a nice period detail. I also note that, at 0:37, when he gets into the car, it looks like they even went to the trouble of including the wartime gas rationing sticker.

I honestly love Michael Collins, he’s been a hero of mine for years. I’m fascinated by the bravery it took to be the only human on the dark side of the moon, with no contact from anyone. While up there, he actually had to tell himself “ok, if things go wrong on the surface, I definitely won’t kill myself, though…

Collins is a class act, I’ve always been impressed with his roll in the missions. random side note - i remember when i was 12 (30th anniversary year i would guess) I got one of those calls you used to get from actual telephone surveys and it was a single question: who was the third member of the Apollo 11 crew?
