    I do. I wrote a whole chapter about it lol!
  2. surreal1272
    Yes sir! It was just too easy lol.
  3. surreal1272
    I can see it now. "Hey, can I get a good deal on that XTC?" Think about it lol.
  4. surreal1272
    Because midget help is half off.
  5. surreal1272
    What if I have 60 midgets? If it only carries 58 then that is a deal breaker for me. Get your act together Cadillac!!
  6. surreal1272
    It's all good though @ccap41 Back to sales.
  7. surreal1272
    Fun fact #2 Ford fleet sales-52,212 GM fleet sales-40,899

    Heres another fun fact. The Suburban had a better January than the Expedition and Navigator combined. We don't even need to mention Tahoe sales, which continues to beat its competitors by a mile.

    Cadillac will not nor does it ever need an SUV/CUV above the Escalade. If this has to be explained again, then there is simply no helping you. Filling a small niche market (in this case, useless V12 CUVs) is just dumb. Finally, why are you bringing up Bentley and Rolls, two makes that even your Benz can't compete with 98% of the time (Maybach anyone?)? Talk about moving a bar that no one but you cares about.
  10. surreal1272
    This ^^ because you pretty much covered what I was going to say. It's January so big whoop.
  11. surreal1272
    Again, pure conjecture since the current Slade is already good enough to beat the supposedly more advanced GL, Silverado bones and all. For the record, an Omega could happen but not at the expense of the current Slade. It doesn't need to and that is what you don't get here while you constantly try to knock Cadillac down a peg.
  12. surreal1272
    Conjecture as you have zero proof that a make believe vehicle is better than the current one. All we know for certain is that the current vehicle is better than anything Merecedes offers.

    Way to 100% miss the point. I am talking about your omission of Cadillac in the tech advancement game. You are making silly assumptions about the engines as well, like GM doesn't have DOHC 6.2L that they can easily put in the Slade by 2019. Let me just say this. While you harp on about cheapness, 0-60 times, old engines, and whatever else you can use to attach to that moving bar of yours, remember this. That overdressed Chevy, a tenth of a second slower and all, beat that Benz in the last MT luxury SUV comparo. It outsells it too. BTW, the GL went with those motors because of the Asia/China market. This has already been discussed to death. Let me add this one last bit. Ever heard the expression 'Don't fix what isn't broken"? That's the Escalade. It's the same principle you have used for the four decade old G-Wagen.
  14. surreal1272
    Baffling how he thinks that Benz is the only make capable of advancing tech. All I know is that more folks prefer the overdressed Chevy over the Benz.
  15. surreal1272
    So a 6000 lb. SUV with a V6 could do 0-60 in 6.5 seconds? Want to explain the physics behind that?
  16. surreal1272
    Yes because everyone is just drag racing from stop light to stop light in their CUVs. Like Drew said, 0-60 times are not top priority for CUVs or most of their buyers. Which is exactly why it doesn't need a V6 of any kind.
  17. surreal1272
    Let me make something abundantly clear here. The Escalade does not ever need a V6 of any kind. It has earned part of its reputation on the 6.2L and that should not change. They have plenty of smaller models in their lineup that could use a turbo six but that brute is not one of them.
  18. surreal1272
    The Escalade disagrees with your assertion that you can't build equity off of a Chevy.
  19. surreal1272
    It should come standard with a bib and a drool bucket!
  20. surreal1272
    I'm just sayin'
  21. surreal1272
    So Mr. Not nOOB, what would you use?
  22. surreal1272
    No they won't. I still remember the old Scramblers from the 80s. They were unreliable piles but man, the owners loved them like it was their actual baby. Jeep has a prime opportunity to seize the off road pick up market with this.
  23. surreal1272
    About FCA, they do need to get it in gear and get the product train rolling already. They have not managed it very well where Dodge, Chrysler, and RAM are concerned but hopefully these lastest round of announcements will start bearing real fruit before it's too late.
  24. surreal1272
    Next to laughter, music is the best remedy. Rock on Stew and screw the naysayers.
  25. surreal1272
    Again, that is trying to equate your situation with someone else's. I see what you're saying and it can drive me batty too but there is no solution in berating someone over it like some have just done here. It has never solved a damn thing and it just makes those same people look like giant A-holes. For the record, I am not referring to you because you approached this very sensibly while getting to the point, and without insulting the person. Again, a little empathy goes a long way for some folks, as opposed to berating and making passive aggressive comments about them. It says a lot about any person who would resort to those tactics and it is a shameful reflection of humanity.
