You really have to admire the courage of the person that
walked into the product development meeting at Cadillac
®
a few
years ago and stated that what was needed in the line was a four
wheel drive truck. After all, throughout it’s long history the emphasis
was on luxury cars. A shiny Cadillac in one’s driveway was a sign
for everyone that this person had made it. Popular legend has it that
a pink Cadillac for his mother was one of the first purchases Elvis
Presley made with his new found wealth in the 50’s.
But times change and the very luxurious Cadillac Escalade
™
sport utility vehicle is now one of hottest selling models.
Not just Cadillac, but Mercedes, Porsche and other makes you
would never think would release an SUV, have. So what is it about
these vehicles that has made them so popular among the American
motoring public? The answer is probably rooted all the way back to
the very first four wheel drive vehicles developed for our troops in
World War II. We love cars because they can transport us to places
that we would otherwise have to walk to. Four wheel drive vehicles
took that one step further since they transported us to places we
couldn’t go to in a car because there was no road. They added
something near and dear to all of us-freedom. The freedom to go
for a winter drive without waiting for the snow plow to come through.
To carry all the family members and all their stuff at once. To be
able to see above the traffic ahead.
While new and different offerings are being added to the
Cadillac product mix, one thing about them that hasn’t changed is
that helping of Cadillac luxury, and the Escalade has received a
healthy dose. Not just the expected climate control or plush leather
seats, but items that only appeared on show cars only a few years
ago-traction control, stability systems that take over if you start to
slide, satellite enabled navigation systems, even radar built into the
rear bumper to warn you if something is in your path even if you
can’t see it. Add in the handsome new corporate front end styling
and it’s easy to see why the Cadillac Escalade has become one of
the hottest rides around.
