I'm not a big fan of the styling, but for performance like that (and because Cadillac has the balls to offer an actual passenger-car wagon) I think I might just grow to like it.

@JalopJeff: Great, now there's an image to start off my day! I'm going to have to rethink the whole idea of reading Jalopnik first thing before I go to work.

On the plus side, she's a better writer than 80% of the Internet, and being cute doesn't hurt either.

@ZomBeeRacer:I loved it too. I felt like royalty getting out of it and it had a great ride. But yikes, if my dad put the seat back, it would cut off the circulation in my legs!

My dad had one of these (a '79). It was a comfortable car, as long as you were sitting in the front seat. For such a huge boat, there was no leg room if you were sitting in the back (even for a kid!).

@John Atchison: Oh deer!

@Zoomy3: I've played that game and I'm not impressed!

Stupid? Yes. But remember, if it weren't for people like this, we'd quickly run out of YouTube videos.

Personally, I think the bottom of a sinkhole is the best place for an Escalade.

Wow, only $40k? At that price, they should sell at least 100 of them to greenie California movie stars and to people who need an overpriced green fashion accesory

Hey, stuck up self-important douchebag journalist, please go home. Your crappy column is on the fritz (and your 5-year old wants his crayons back).

Epic structural engineering fail!

Yes, it's weird and bizarre enough for my driveway. Nice price!

@AlienProbe: Yes it does.

Mmm...I love the smell of burning Ferrari in the morning!

@OA 5599: No, that's just predictable!

@alextsmith: Maybe they should have called it the Dodge Cannonball? Everything is relative, though, and for 1960, "economical" didn't necessarily mean "small."

@Dane Schwaebe: That was back when we had a big economy.

Well, that commercial is darned effective. I want a 1960 Dart now! (Although I've always been a sucker for Darts/Valiants, so I'm biased).

@whitehatspecial: Oh yeah, I had a cool driver's ed teacher. I missed the high-school course, so I went to the local driving school. The instructor/owner was a bit of a nut, but he believed in hands-on experience, which was a lot more useful than sitting and watching B+W movies of car wrecks! And, the slant-6…
