re: OT opinion on Cadillacs--

Escalades are really nice. Not a great value but they are sweet rides.

I think Cadillacs are pretty nice looking and good quality. More stylish than most BMWs and Mercedes I see, which all kind of look the same.

GM premium product. Used to have the worse resale value of any brand, kinda doubt they still do, but could be bad. That 600hp Caddy is the only V8 you can get.

Are you over 70, own an RV or live in Boca?

I wish they still made a big body. Like a modernized version of the old land yachts.

Back in 08 when I was buying, I had the Acura TL, BMW 3, Cadillac CTS, and Lexus in my realistic price.

Picked Acura and was very happy.

The issue I had with the CTS was the marketing or pricing. The “base” model was never at a dealer to see. They had about 6-7 different tiers of pricing and features. They went from $36k to pushing $50k. Just pissed me off.

Acura essentially, “want navigation or not?” Those were the two packages. Aside from the “TL-S” which I never considered.

Also a car need buddy of mine said “CTS? That’s a bitches car man. Only see MILFs driving those.”

It’s a gm

I see one and think "there goes the neighborhood" to be honest. I never see then without giant rims and such.

I like the cars more than the Escalade.

I love the XTS but they are discontinuing it, I think.
