Ford has injected new life into Lincoln and they are on their way up the ladder. As for Cadillac, it appears that the right hand doesn't know what the left is doing.

P.S. Kudos on the Lordstown battery plant. Get these folks back to work.

Cadillac is getting destroyed in many recent comparisons I've seen with Lincoln (XT6 versus Aviator for example).

The Aviator from what I have seen and read is a really impressive vehicle

^Its not as tragic as the Silverado (the body sculpting, especially at the front fender of the Silverado is killing the look), but on the other hand I'm not liking the front styling cues that Chevy has adopted for a few of their cars and trucks. The Tahoe should be fine.

Agreed. Work provides a 2019 Silverado LT 4x4 CCSB for me and it's a huge PITA to wash compared to my 2017 Sierra. Don't like GM's front styling cues at all, but the new Tahoe is slightly better than the trucks. The mirror placement and fender/door treatment is the biggest improvement over the trucks - I still hate seeing the blanked out corner of the side window where the mirrors used to mount - at least open it up as part of the window or something...

That interior has been spy-shot before, so no huge surprises there, although more pictures never hurts! It looks excellent.

As for the exterior....Not so sure. It's a taller fatter XT6. Withholding judgement until it is officially revealed with more trims.

The GMCs could end up being the best looking of the bunch with a premium interior to boot, which I think is true for the current full size SUVs and also the full size trucks.

Yeah not sure the Escala design language translated well onto the Escalade. I don't mind it on XT6 but it definitely looks odd here.


Interior is probably one of the best we've seen from GM.

I am huge GM guy but I will say, the new Navigator blows away the Escalade. It looks more upscale than the Caddy.

Agreed. That interior from what we can see looks awesome but the exterior in that shot leaves a lot to be desired.

People are too quick to judge off of poorly lit photos that really don't show the details.

I think the current Escalade looks better than the Navigator as far as the exterior is concerned and there is nothing on the road like seeing the front end of the Escalade.
