There is no getting around it, the Cadillac Escalade 2WD is a big truck. Big on power, big on comfort and big in sheer size. Luckily the power plant in the model is more than up to the job, a 6.2-liter V8 with over 400 HP! This latest Cadillac Escalade has a modern, sleeker look. It is definitely not a vehicle for those who like to travel incognito! The Cadillac Escalade virtually shouts - Look at me I'm a big success! Inside the Esplanade is luxuriously appointed with fully automatic climate control, heated leather seats, Bose sound system, Satellite navigation and multimedia, running boards and even a rear view camera. Externally the Esplanade is positively dripping in bling, with plenty of chrome on display especially at the front. Unlike other SUVs where weight blunts acceleration, the 417 lb-ft of torque from the 6.2 V8 fitted under the hood gets this Esplanade moving at a surprising pace for such a tall and heavy vehicle. This torque also makes the Cadillac Escalade 2WD a fantastic towing vehicle. The verdict? Well if you can afford to buy one, have room on your driveway to fit one and can buy the gas for one - then why not, an awesome truck!
