This vehicle reminds me of 2007 when the sky was the limit. Money was everywhere so it all got bigger.. The situation is very similar now but the economy is having to shift away from all the cheap and available money. Just waiting for the next collapse and these gas guzzlers are the first to hit the bricks, we never learn. Sorry for the rant!

[@jfsiiiautomotivereviews8343]

My new favorite SUV, EVER!!!!

[@masterchief9005]

I was deciding between Argent Silver and Radiant Red Tincoat. I ended up going with AS, RRT isn't a true red. Almost like a lipstick red if that makes any sense. Also it doesn't exactly match the brake calipers color. Hoping my build starts in November! Another thing I'd mention is the new Vision Recorder, with the SD slot in the center console, which is new for all 23 models and forward. No reviewers seem to cover that new security feature. Finally, to do launch control correctly, while holding down on the brake and gas, a light will start blinking on the screen when its fully engaged! Thanks for the upload!

[@MilesPerHr]

Good note on the HD Vision Recorder - I'm looking forward to that in my '23 CT5-V Blackwing. Enjoy your V!

[@masterchief9005]

@@MilesPerHr same to you! Hopefully we get in to the mid to late November build batch coming up

[@paedahe4975]

@@masterchief9005 The SD slot next to the freezer is for the navigation system. The SD slot for the recorder is next to the fuses on drivers side trunk area. The chip is not included. You will need the program on your laptop to make the chip work. You will need to buy the right chip or it won’t work. Only buy a 64GB chip. Any larger has issues. Any smaller won’t work either. SanDisk is the best. Read and write speeds matter for this chip. 170 Mb/s is best. Make sure the chip is a V30 chip. (64gb SanDisk Extreme SDXC UHS-I Card) V30. Don’t buy micro SD. Use full size. Use the program Disk Genius to format and your all set. Any questions, just ask.

[@LetLiveEverything]

Thank you Cadillac for keeping combustion engines alive and not going full electric. Microwaves are faster, but it'll never be as good as using a stove.

[@georgejungle138]

How is that analogy comparable to combustion and electric cars? Both combustion and electric produce the same result and quality.

[@LetLiveEverything]

@@georgejungle138 Easy. People that don't really care about food are happy with the convenience and speed of a microwave, simply food to eat. And people that do care about food prefer the control, sounds, smell, and taste of food on a stovetop. People who don't really care about the car they drive just want whatever is new and electric, quiet. Simply transportation. People who care about combustion cars prefer them specifically because of the things that electric lacks to make it's similar or better power. The sound, the rumble, the smell of gasoline.

The 2022-23 Cadillac Escalade Sport Platinum with the red 6 piston brakes, automatic steps, performance exhaust, Super Cruise and Night vision tops out at $127,000.😬… The Escalade is the hottest SUV on the market right now, outselling Mercedes GLS AMG 63, BMW X7, Range Rover and the Lincoln Navigator.😳… The problem is Cadillac knows there’s nothing out there competing with the Escalade and the demand is very high so dealers are asking $20k-$35k over MSRP. People are going crazy over this New Escalade paying for the out the door price of $140,000 - $160,000😱 and now the Escalade v they are asking $180k-200k😳🤯

[@nicholasmolnar2717]

Why not both?

[@masterchief9005]

I wouldn't wait too long unless you have a good connection with one of your Cadillac dealerships. Otherwise you will be waiting years assuming you want to choose the color and options and not just pick one up that's already at a dealership. In Texas one of the big dealerships are booked for at least 4 years on the V.

[@Ranzy0]

@@nicholasmolnar2717 maybe he can't afford both..

[@Justin_GFM]

Well those are two totally different niches, but have you looked at an RSQ8 or even the RS6 Avant? They’ve both got both speed and practicality

[@MilesPerHr]

That is tough. If you're considering the RS7, then I presume you don't need the third row of seats. The V wins in terms of soundtrack and space, but the RS7 is a missile.

[@Shaqshaq_pov]

First, the gloss wood trim has got to go. What is wrong with them? I know it’s a Cadillac but put some carbon fiber or some Matt Wood at least for this price it’s too much plastic To me, it still needs a redesign. Only thing I like about this truck is the power.

[@mybro727]

Volume knob and rotary dial “feels cheap”? Lol. I swear these are the types of comments you only hear when reviewers are inside of a GM interior. It’s like they’re _looking_ for things to consider cheap in these interiors and when they think they’ve finally *found* something don’t hesitate to mention it. Just seems forced and very nit-picky. I never hear this type of criticism for Germans who use the same materials. 😂
