Flashy but plastic

This car has a luxury appearance but everything is plastic and wears quickly. From the knobs to the door handles, it shows the lack of craftsmanship.

Cadillac comfortable, solid, well made, powerful.

I have owned this Escalade for a year. Very impressive. Car does what it was designed to do. Luxurious, powerful, comfortable. Most impressive. Gas mileage? No. But, that is not why I bought it. I am very pleased with the car. I grew up with Cadillacs (my Dad currently has three), drove Chevys for years, and now own

my first Cadillac. There is a difference! The details, attention to quality, fit and finish, and that beautiful Cadillac crest make owning it special. So nice.
