Laurance Yap says it's a "bit of a shame" that the Escalade is hitting the market at a time when gas prices are so high because "it really is a very impressive large SUV."  Unique to the Escalade is a 6.2-litre V8 producing 403 horsepower, and a six-speed automatic transmission.

+1.  It looooooks stunning.

I still found GX470 the most comfortable vs Escalade, Navigator and QX56.
