Leno and Osborne Upgrade to the 2023 Escalade V

Jay and Donald step back in time to enjoy the Cadillac of yesteryear - a 1941 Series 61. However, it doesn't take long for them to be hurled into the future by the company's new, 700 horsepower, flagship SUV!

[@dukeallen432]

Be better without Leno. And this is just corporate marketing. Booo.

[@Niamato_inc]

Always a time well spent watching theses two gentlemen.

[@user-vy4xx2qp3d]

If it wasn't for Jay i wouldn't watch

[@jmgathg]

These videos are a gift. Please keep them coming!❤

[@daviddill5227]

I love listening to these two compliment each other with their take on cars, societal changes, and how that relates to the changes in cars over the many decades of time.

[@dukeallen432]

Leno doesn’t listen. Just talks. Osborn great presenter.

[@daviddill5227]

@dukeallen432 - thanks for your opinion. Much appreciated.

[@igordewit7357]

[@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13]

If your car says something about you, that Escalade says MC Donald and Grandmaster Jay just dropped their new gangster rap album.

[@shawnbradford2243]

Where I live it’s the stay at home sports mom vehicle of choice, most of the time it’s a middle aged woman in lulu lemon

[@CallowXayne]

I like the observation that crossovers and SUVs have basically taken us back to the ride height of these old sedans.

[@danmccarthy4700]

The only time I ever use A/C in my car is if the temperature is above 90F and I'm going to be on the road for at least an hour. People have completely forgotten the simple joy of driving with the windows down, arm out the window with a nice breeze blowing through the car. I happen to live for that! :)

[@jamesmisener3006]

6 min in and I noticed the new younger Donald. Cheers 🇨🇦

[@Yankeededandy62]

Getting my morning cup of coffee and watching Jay and Donald drive old and new Cadillacs, is the most relaxing and enjoyable start into the weekend.

[@bennyboogenheimer4553]

I'm so glad Jay was driving the 1940 Caddy, or there would have been to many Driving Miss Daisy jokes. Love ya, Uncle Jay!

[@pierpicturefineartframing3916]

Pleasure to see. I can't believe I'm thinking about getting a Cadillac. My parents had a 65 Convertible Caddy. Be fun to see them make that one again...

[@Brsrafal]

Wow what a collection

[@gustavoflorio5383]

My favorite car duo!

[@IndridCool54]

Jay’s mile a minute comment reminded me of a set of Burma Shave signs on old Route 66 in Arizona… “You can drive, A mile a minute, But there is, No future in it”. 😂

[@davidsamkow7936]

Off-Topic, Osborne looks younger without a mustache 😁 👍

[@Kevin-si1es]

Just discovered this KZbin channel absolutely superb channel and these two are informative entertaining and very informative love to everyone from all over the world 🌎 kev from the United Kingdom 🇬🇧

[@richardcrouse4644]

Donald, you look great with your signature bow tie, but I miss the brush! ~from Texas

[@MrIslandman59]

Thanks gentlemen, that was a lot of fun! "Cassette Player, how old am I?"...Too funny!

[@chriscadman6379]

I can see the return of the glorious Donald mustache!

[@howardnielsen6220]

Love them both ❤

[@E.T.GARAGE]

Always great seeing Donald and Jay together in one of these video's, I do not think I will ever be a fan of some of the modern giant passenger trucks, SUV's that are on the roads today, there just a little to much.

[@bradwilliams4921]

That was a great video!

[@josephnapolitano277]

Felix, Oscar 😂thanks again for an awesome video. Love you Guy's ❤

[@Cstoreri]

Thx men!

[@OldSkoolUncleChris]

Osborne looks like Homer Simpson sans moustache

[@davemeshamsr6000]

Hahahaha 😂

[@deoxysx1657]

D’OH

[@deanolson3804]

Great video, I always love the inter mingling and stories you two share. That's hilarious Master J and Doctor D. Seriously Mr. Osborn what watch are you wearing in this video? I can only imagine it's worth as much as the Escalade. Cheers,keep the faith. Dean

TAG Heuer Monaco

[@eddiegardner8232]

I had a Fleetwood I could sleep in, but it was a motor home.

[@idrivearttabletennis]

Fun video.

[@CA-nm7mb]

The vintage Cadillacs, Pre 80’s, still outclasses this new Escalade. Cadillacs used to have an identity and character to them, but now they are just a shared GM platform now more so than ever before. I miss the “Cadillac float” riding smoothness of the 60’s and 70’s Sedan Devilles and Fleetwoods. Gone is the soft floaty ride of the old school Caddy tanks of the past. Plus the new Cads have areas of the interior where it has cheap feeling plastics, the seats are rock hard and thinly padded, the seats are nowhere near as comfy as the old Cadillac cushy living room seats from the 1930’s-1970’s Cads. I’ve owned multiple vintage Cadillacs from the good ole days, and currently own a '54 Fleetwood 60 Special and a '64 Sedan Deville. Both cars are beautiful, extremely well built and solid, super comfortable to drive, with tons of interior room. Modern luxury cars look very modest sitting next to my Cads, and have no real presence like the Classics do. Especially the '54 Fleetwood which has the most interior space of any vintage Cadillac I have ever owned. The '54 is tank in wheels, very solid and it does remind me of driving a modern day crossover just like that '41 Cad because of the height of the roof and seats as you sit more upright vs the low-slung late 50’s-60’s Cadillacs. 1956 was the last year of the taller Cadillacs with the massive frames. Starting in 1957 they switched to the X-frame which lowered the cars body and gave them the long, low, sleeker look. Problem is, they are difficult to get in and out of depending on the years because of how low they were. Anyway I love the comparison between the 2 different Caddy’s. IMO the '41 oozes class, luxury, quality, and elegance, while the Escalade oozes a more Brutish kind of colder styling that doesn’t really look luxurious at all to me.

[@michaelcase8231]

I really can't wait to see if they do this kind of comparison with the Cadilac 1957 Eldorado Brougham and the new Celestiq thats coming.

[@Thecarexchangepodcast]

Viper In 72? You can tell Donald wanted to let Jay know he must’ve meant Dodge Viper in 92

[@chriscadman6379]

I will pay five dollars to see Jay grow a mustache.

[@tumblelake63]

3:00 to 3:06, Nice. Full screen is best.

[@loumontcalm3500]

'41 GM designs across the board were great.

[@who2u333]

It looks like Jay, but he is not wearing a denim shirt. What have you done with Jay!? ;)

[@shelleyking8450]

700hp in that Escalade, that is just obscene. BUT ABSOLUTELY American.

[@donc-m4900]

4:50 climbs the hill? In Newport? Must be talking about the bridge.😂

[@donhathaway3234]

Never saw a 41 Caddy. Never a fan but, nice looking car.

[@melvinburwell8202]

You two guys are the best in the business. 1949 was a significant year. Ford for sure. But the Escalade. Is the perfect combo. And it doesn't look like a potato want to be an SUV. Ugly.❤❤❤😛🤑😎

[@Bongofurry]

Too real car cats !

[@frankrivvi5553]

👍👍

[@stanB950]

Did Jay drive to work with the convertible open 😂

[@ozahmed4523]

There are 2 'V's under the headlights of the '41. What did the V mean? Was is because Cadillac had V16 engines?

[@QuietStormX]

Not the biggest, you have the extended version...

[@FYMASMD]

I agree with Jay. The twenties and thirties Cadillacs were beautiful. 1941 not so. My oldest brother has a 1949 sedanette. Fully restored and wow is it a fun car. Highway speeds are no problem. We did some suspension and electrical mods but just for ease of use. We put a couple thousand miles a year on it. It is truly a milestone car. I don’t consider that truck a Cadillac at all. Really the brand died after 1974 for me.

[@petesmitt]

15:22 combonk?

[@HarryMollyNut]

Jay bought his Viper in '72 hey ?????

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

1992!!

[@F8Tributo]

I'd rather have a brand new Fleetwood Brougham from the late 90s. Where the Escalade certainly looks big and badazs, the Fleetwood Brougham looked more elegant and classy, rather than just "big". (My contrarian view!)

[@Ganiscol]

A like for Donald & Jay - but not for the Escalade 😅

[@chriscadman6379]

Van dyke for Jay?

[@alanrogers7090]

LOL A treadmill with built-in ashtrays.

[@martinmcintyre7623]

If that old cracked steering wheel could talk...

[@chriscadman6379]

Hello.

[@shawnbradford2243]

Hola

[@pedromiguelareias]

TAG Heuer Monaco? Come on, for this situation at least a IWC Chrono 41

[@keithjohnson6892]

I Love these two together, buts lets be honest .... They skirted the demographic issue

[@LolGetAJob]

Donald should be in prison for murder for killing off the mustache

[@johndeere1951a]

There should be a requirement that soccer mom's👱‍♀️must be tall enough to see over the top of the steering wheel⚽🤣

[@inchlorIentztJiIu]

People are going crazy about the Escalade. What is going on? Are we trying to kill each other with these big SUVs?. The upcoming electric Escalade is going to be extremely heavy. If anyone crashes with these Escalade is RIP.🤷‍♂️

[@Hczeprocker]

I would love to hear Donald "Spitting Profanities".... And I Hate Rap music, most of it!

[@AngelLopez-hc2df]

❤ Toyota Corolla GR❤

[@ozahmed4523]

Cadillac is older than Rolls Royce.

[@d33b33]

I remember seeing US surveillance camera footage of a happy little boy running across a supermarket parking lot to his mom's car. He steps in front of an SUV pulling out, the bumper smacks him in the head and runs him over. The mom screams and sprints forward. The flattened boy is small enough to not get smooshed, all four wheels miss him. The mom hugs the boy with the booboo on his noggin. The SUV driver never knew the family drama happening in his rear view mirror. My point is that these road cork SUV's that abuse legislature meant for commercial vehicles must be named and shamed. Listen between the lines, Jay and Donald both know, but they can't anger the bow tie. If this Escalade has sensors to stop it from splatting little kids, then it's like those black n white movie early airoplane attempts, like the bicycle with the humping cloth screw shaped parachute, or the car with the flapping wings. The SUV is comedy gold for future generations. This Escalade is like you get on a V8 scissor lift, extend it and shout how you are the best car of all times. It is a wayward car for uninformed people.

The 2023 Cadillac Obnoxious

[@ptinvite7942]

Can't subscribe unless you commit to not singing in the videos

[@jbllc6873]

It may be gargantuan. But the Escalade, or any other domestic vehicle is still trash relative to build quality reliability and resale value of Japanese and even Korean brands. And that’s since the 90’s. Don’t see why anyone would buy from the big three.

[@Charlesb88]

I don’t think I’d agree that Cadillac is trash vs Toyota, Honda, Kia, or Hyundai. Arguments can be made that those Japanese and Korean brands make better SUV’s vs the Escalade but that doesn’t make Cadillacs trash. You’re also forgetting that the name Cadillac and the fact that it’s an American brand means something to the “Buy American” crowd.

[@philippekervynfaucon9849]

After copying so many european cars , now Cadillac uses for its front, the back of the new Range Rover. American design has a few moments of genius , but it is dreadful compared to european and asian elegance, harmony and creativity. American cars are frequently like american remakes of europe films.... dreadful. PS: and every design nowadays has to include ideas for the mitomaniac public : stealth, intelligence or deep state like vehicule, military .... an apealing visual culture of menace projecting and fear creating that alpha dogs that can buy , or beta dogs that can lease a Cadillac.

[@stanB950]

They all have shared car parts and such for many a year’s ( the Bricklin for example )

[@billmagorian490]

The Escalade V is hopefully the swan song of obscene consumption, gas guzzling ,horsepower excess.

[@lancemckissick6771]

No, you don't talk too much!

[@otterpossum9128]

Shame on you, you used to be authentic. I understand money is helpful but this is obviously a paid promotion and to have an intro like that is shameful. Neither of these two have any legitimate praise for the Escalade V and there is zero commonality. Blocking your channel and again, shame on you.

[@AudrainMuseumNetwork]

Hello! This is not a paid promotion. Both of these cars are part of the Audrain Collections. Donald saw connections between the two, and we chose to highlight them in this video. Thanks for the feedback!
