Those things are freaking badass. IMO it looks 10 x better than earlier Escalades. My local dealership is mainly HUMMER, but carries others too, so when a car comes out it says HUMMER on the license plate cover.

I think I like the previous Escalade more. This one is smoother and looks like a Tahoe to me.

Either way, it's a very nice ride. Did the dealer install those rims or did your boss pick them up afterwards?

i love the '07s... i didn't like them when i first saw them, but since Cadillac has been sending me new brochures and **** like every week, they're starting to grow on me... here's my '03 that's getting traded in next month for the '07... 24" KMC Cousteaus, 2"/3" McGaughy spindles/coils, 2% tint, custom billet grille...

i think i have the slowest Civic ever, actually lol... it's an automatic, rollin on some heavy *** 18"s, with a 1000 lb system... but hey, i have a 6 lb carbon fiber hood lol...

actually, i'm thinking about dumping some money into it... the Civic has been my commuter car because of the gas mileage, and i drive from TX to FL every two weeks or so... i get 18 mpg in the 'Vette, the Sierra and the Escalade get around 14 mpg, and the F-100 is good for about 8 mpg lol... anyway, i'll be moving back to FL permanently within the next month so i won't really need it... but i don't know if i want to sell the 'Vic and pick up a new CBR600RR or swap in a boosted K20A2 and have a nice little sleeper sedan... i know better than to ask what y'all would do, because i already know the answer to that lol... anyway, i'll keep you posted...

i also thought about 'bagging it and just having it as a nice clean little show car... the current airstrut / airbag combo our cars use doesn't allow us to lay frame, but i'm sure with a little elbow grease and alot of money, i could have it laid out pretty nicely... here's a teaser pic courtesy of Photochop:
