Why do American SUV cars have an old and old man design, the body has sharp lines on the grilles and big and ugly lights, for example, German Benz and English Ranger cars have an up-to-date and muscular design.

[@inchlorIentztJiIu]

Haters will always hate no matter if it was a Ferrari or a Bugatti, there are always haters for everything. The fact is that these days the Escalade presents a very big threat to any luxury cars, including Rolls-Royce, and Bentley. That is why they feel the need to shit on it.🧏‍♂️

For anyone who’s going vouching for the Lexus. Come to the Middle East and see the issues going on with the new 3.5 TT V6 engines made by Toyota. The mechanics of the Toyota dealers will still recommend you to go back the V8 as the turbos are not able to withstand heat and overheat. People of America, the products made by GM shipped to the Middle East are very reliable as there are some parts changed to bear the heat. The 6.2 and the 5.3 are solid engines.

Good afternoon gentlemen. Another great vehicle comparison video. Even before the video started, I knew the Cadillac Escalade would win over the Lexus LX 600. The Escalade has the size advantage and is more modernized in terms of tech features. As for the Lexus LX 600, that second row is great! Definitely in relaxed mode sitting back there. In a upcoming video it would be nice to see the Lexus LX 600 go up against the BMW X7. In terms of size both vehicle almost identical. Just a three inch length advantage for the BMW X7. Another vehicle to go up against the Lexus LX600 would be the Infiniti QX80. That would be a good comparison video interior wise for both vehicles. As for the Cadillac Escalade it would be a good comparison video between that and the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. When the Grand Wagoneer came out it was aimed directly to compete with the Cadillac Escalade. The Lincoln Navigator too, but primarily the Escalade. Both the Escalade and Grand Wagoneer come with a console freezer and autonomous driving.

The Escalade is nice city car . The Lexus is a unicorn I that it is just brilliant at off-road ! I live in Australia and this car can cut it in the city and is just at home off-road. I don’t mean puddle jumping in a park or urban area! This car has real off-road capability. Which means it has compromises compared to the city based Escalade But if you want a car for city duties that’s not too big and real off-road abilities the Lexus wins hands down . Plus it’s proven in really extreme environments like Australia . Where some ! I some people use these cars to their true potential.Because we can and we can afford to take these off road and want bit more luxury that a basic Toyota.I have driven both vehicles and they are both great cars depending on on what you really want to do with them .

[@tanekiagrant8479]

For me I would pick the Escalade for the ultimate SUV 3 row SUV is just gigantic in his bigger than the Lexus LX and they also have a V series Escalade which I would probably get much for the fuel economy I would pick the Lexus LX cuz it has the better fuel economy it doesn't have a big bulky V6 up under the hood has a V6 which is better South Florida fuel economy go for the Lexus LX but for the off-road capability or whatever if you want more luxury like a 38 inch curved display a panoramic roof to screens in the rear seats go for the Escalade

[@tom23245]

If you can truly afford either car, the only thing that matters are the features.

If money were no object. I'd get the Escalade, I would buy it with the best extended warranty I could get because I would need it ( been there done that). As far as space and comfort hands down the Escalade. Looks the Escalade. V8 engine the Escalade. The LX 600 guarantees that all would work beautifully, perfectly crafted, I have a lot of hearing loss so the Mark Levinson would be absolutely fine, my defective hearing would not appreciate the AKG any more or any less. Even with the V6 in the Lexus I would trust its quality over the cadillac. If you read the cadillac reviews, which I have for 5 years, you will confirm that Escalade owners love their cadis but they hate all the PITA issues that come up all the time. My Escalade went to the shop for repairs/defects 26 times. I got rid of it. I miss it all the time. Now i have a GX 460 3 times in the shop, 2 oil changes and 1 front end alignment!!! Will most. likely get another Lexus because the quality is much better. If I could I'd still have an Escalade..................if I could afford to have it repaired all the time.

Well if you haven’t noticed the value of the dollar has become less valuable as of lately. Not to mention cars nowadays come standard such as backup camera infotainment screens emergency brake sensors etc thus driving the Msrp up naturally. Backup cameras back then was considered a luxury nowadays it’s mandatory by law so again naturally it’s going to cost more.
