    Rumorpile: What To Possibly Expect In The 2014 Cadillac Escalade

    By William Maley

    April 23, 2013

    CarScoops has learned from a contact of theirs some information about what to expect with the new 2014 Cadillac Escalade.

    The contact says the new Escalade will stick with its boxy looks on the exterior and use headlights similar to the ones used on the ELR. The back end has taillights that "run from the roof down, being thinnest closest to the roof" and similar in looks to the CTS wagon.

    Inside, the contact says the new Escalade will feature much higher quality materials, making it more luxurious.

    "The interior design is real everything. Real wood, metal, leather," the contact said.

    I am very excited for this to see if they have fixed the one major problem with the current Escalade, the lack of headroom for those of us that are tall. At 6'6" tall I love my current 2006 Escalade ESV Platinum and yet the current model I cannot fit in as the seat does not go low enough to allow me to sit upright. I do not buy auto's that require reclining.


    As such, I am very much interested in the seating of the new Escalade. The only thing I have a pass on is the damn high belt line. Do not like the smaller seats.

    Not sure about the tail lights that go to the roof. Sounds like the early 90s Chevy Lumina MPV or Pontiac Trans Sport. The interior does need to get better and not remind of a Tahoe. The Mercedes GL is the #1 seller in this segment now, the Lexus LX and Lincoln Navigator are nearly extinct, you sort of have to get it right or face elimination.

    I guess the tail lights would be more CTS wagon than Trans Sport :AH-HA:

    I agree with ZL-1 that the lights will be more CTS Wagon than the ugly Trans Sport. Plus with the use of LED lights now, you can do some pretty cool things. Looking forward to it, but if the interior seating does not gain room, deal breaker for me.

    i was really really hoping to see actual cadillac looking taillights on this new one and not the previous versions. This is great news.

    • And they used to make this, with probably the best wheels ever.  Then it went downhill fast.
    • Will be interesting to see how mercedes uses their 800V EV system on the current auto's, hopefully they can get their mojo back on style and YES, I agree that BMW peaked in the 90's with style and has clearly lost it with the Big Nostril Grills. How anyone thinks this looks good is beyond me.
    • Like showing proof of insurance, either proof of purchase of a gun safe (Yes, I know this could be forged), proof of home insurance showing Guns and gun safe on the insurance (Yes, I know this could be forged). There is no bullet proof way of ensuring gun locks and gun safes, but we have to do our best.  I also think there is no need for Military style guns in public possession, but that is my feeling, and I know gun companies would fight this as they feel they have a right to sell everything to everyone and be damn any regulations about responsibility. Gotta start somewhere for better gun safety.
    • My country is not the one that is threatening ICE agents at the Superbowl just because there will be  a gay Puerto Rican performing t the half time show. Need I show you the peaceful tactics of ICE agents?   Need I spell out the homophobic so called Christian reasons of why said performer is not wanted at the Superbowl half time show? Need I also spell out the love that one sector of Americans have for another? All the things that I have pointed out that you call insufferable... PS: Charlie Kirk spewed ALL that kind hatred in his podcasts and University campus debates. The Bad Bunny hatred at the half time show hatred...   Charlie Kirk advocated for gun violence too and ironically died in the very same way he condoned...  And the shooter of Charlie Kirk at that school was another far right phoquetard.   So phoque you @ccap41  for it all!!!  Are you trying to shame me for what your shytty country has become?  You cant see your own hypocrisy of questioning MY thoughts on how your phoquing shytty country is soooooo phoquing shytty? Dude...shame on you and your fellow country men.  YOU and YOUR countrymen are insufferable...
