The Escalade runs the 6.2L but, but as stated it is near 6,000 pounds, and while it has more torque and AWD, it won't hold to a Camaro. If he is purely stock (and a tune doesn't really mean much in them)

Had one try and jump me last week, he thought he would be slick and pass a line of cars on the right using the right turn only lane, and jump me at the light, he managed to hang with me for about 3 feet and I smoked his stupid ass.

he went WOT and he pushed it trying to run me out of my lane, I even hesitated and didn't go full WOT, just enough to blow past him. Since he couldn't pass me to merge over he got stuck in the parking lane behind parked cars.. All that traffic behind me sat in that lane for 30 minutes trying to get through that intersection and he decided he was special and was going to slip by all of us, no one was going to let him in.

Having owned the Avalanche version of the Escalade I can tell you they are gutless wonders, massive power for towing, but the gearing is for $hit when it comes to spooling up to pass someone.
