I would just buy a Tahoe and use the remaining cash for gas money.

Before I retired the last auto dealership I worked in was a Cadillac dealership. We had a platinum Escalade, 95k window,sticker. This was 2016-7 and I thought that was nuts.

I tend to wait for when it’s 5 years old with 80k mileage and worth 15k. Cadillac loses value faster then a Yugo.

Two perspectives, #1: if you are pulling down $80,000.00 per month ,that price won't seem like a bunch.
#2: How many will get repossessed or resold withing 8 months of the original purchase.

So is the V-Series twice the vehicle as the 'regular' Escalade? LOL. Some won't care.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Technically, it's Wagen. As in Geländewagen, shortened to G-Wagen Impractical & very expensive, but I've wanted one since they were first offered in the US.
