I like the new Escalade, I don’t like the GMC, that looks like crap, and the Tahoe looks good in black and with 18 inch wheels.

I think the Tahoe looks too much like a hearse when in black, and not in a badass way.

I think the Tahoe front is the worst, and the Cadillac the best

In that purple-ish color too!

That’s what I like about it, the square shaped rear looks classy in black.

I actually like all of the new GM trucks. They've really grown on me. Sharp and crisp body lines, good faces, I'm all for it.

Heh, the GMC is the best looking IMO. Cadillac's second. Tahoe last because of those stupid things on the headlights.

I think the Tahoe could do with less chrome and a smaller Chevy badge, but I still think it looks good. The GMC is awful tacky bling.

Tahoe in grey, with the big (I don’t know the exact size) rims that are part chrome/part bodycolour looks really sharp.

Me too, and I’m one to hate on most american cars. The GM SUVs look sharp and classy, I just don’t like the GMC grille, too blingy and tacky.

Hell no, that stupidly large red GMC badge that clashes with every single color. It looks like a fat catfish with its mouth open.

The chrome doesn’t bother me, it’s those weird ass headlights.

I quite like that, looks subtly modern.

I thought you hated chrome though?

Kinja'd!!!

That trim around the windows is awful. Almost as awful as the Escalades shifter. They did so much to differentiate the Escalade from it’s siblings, but keep the eyesore of a shifter.

Kinja'd!!!

Why not a knob or a button that looks way classier?


Kinja'd!!! BReLp7dzHM3ytYsE > My citroen won't start

Even the Escalade looks classy, and that's not really something I've been able to say in the past.

Kinja'd!!!

But the Esclade with nearly the same front end looks great? Seriously, they’re damn near identical. Lights a little slimmer and grille a little bigger but that's about it.

I saw my first lifted 2015 tahoe...and I liked it. I think the new trucks take VERY well (stylistically) to being raised or lowered.

Kinja'd!!!

Kinja'd!!!

(though get that air damn off the lifted truck for craps sake)

And I don’t, the grille could use less chrome, the lights look ok, I don’t mind them, the mirrors need to be black. And yeah, I didn’t know about the shifter, but I’d still buy one if all the Range Rovers in the world imploded.

It’s something about the lines, the Chevy and Caddy have (ok, chrome isn’t exactly subtle) sharp lines, the GMC has the red thing I hate and everything is a bit rounded and the mesh grille looks veeery tacky. The grille is too large, or at least it seems too large.

Yeah, without that air damn and a little lift, I think they look nice.

I’m not sure about the wheels on the lifted one, but yeah, I especially liked the Z71 package for the Tahoe.

As does the Colorado.

well the Tahoe is no 4Runner, its almost a guarantee to have douche wheels on any kind of lift (as opposed to just “likely”)...but the increased height works well with the body style.


Kinja'd!!! HammerheadFistpunch > Jordan and the Slowrunner, Boomer Intensifies
07/21/2015 at 13:43

yeah, but that looks like a leveling kit, which doesn’t look quite right...or maybe its just the angle.

Right wheels, but darker grey Tungsten Metallic.

Well two of those complaints can be fixed with getting a non-Denali and some silver or black badges, which I know can be bought.

That looks better, but I still don’t like how large and snout-like the grille is.

If you don’t really plan on offroading it, I don’t mind a leveling kit, it improves asthetics.

This actually looks properly offroady, regardless of it’s actual ability. Damb that air dam ruins things

I like the way Cadillac has used the lower fog lights to make a larger overall design, especially with the larger sedan

They should have do somethign like Chrysler’s rotary knob. That shifter looks like came straight out of a cargo van.

The chrome window trim on these cars bugs me so much. Well I guess it looks okay on the SWB but on the LWB it looks so wrong. Why have it end at the middle of the car. I thing the trim should just go all the way to the back and wrap around the car.

Headlamps reminiscent of the Mercury Mountaineer, grille an enlarged version of a Chrysler Town & Country, and taillights inspired by the Volvo 850 wagon/estate...

meh.

I don’t mind it, but it would definitely look better with wrap-around trim

The Yuck, especially with the LEDs on, looks like a surprised/angry cow, and not in a good way. The sierra looks like a pig with glitter on its eyelashes. Neither look that great.

The Escalade really is one of the most beautiful SUVs on the market right now. I tend to prefer the Yukon Denali a little more though, has a more muscular look to it. Regardless, the Escalade looks 1000x better than the frumpy-looking piece of shit that Lincoln will sell you. *And yes I have rode in both of them*

Saw two of these on the road yesterday after not seeing any. I think it looks WAY better than the old Escalade. And I really like the taillight treatment. Kind of looks like a modern interpretation of the single vertical tailights that all Cadillacs used to have in the 70's (not including the ugly ass Seville).

We might not know how to make a car that lasts, but dammit we can make one that turns heads.

I’d still buy one if all the Range Rovers in the world imploded

That’s actually a very real possibility at any given moment.
