I suppose if you're selling drugs then you can afford one...

The newer Escalades are sick...I'd do a trade-in to an '11 if I could afford it...

Yeah, that's the one my dad just bought.

You're definitely a liar if you say you wouldn't want an escalade if someone were to give you one.

They're really nice inside and out.

I like Escalades, I would not pay the money for one though. They're just about the opposite of bang for buck I think.

you're definitely wrong about that. i'd immediately sell it for whatever i could get for it.

 

[QueBert]

damn the '11 looks sick, 22" rims standard ummm. If I traded in my 02 Camry and put about 5k down I bet I could get away with only having to pay about a G a month to own one

 

[rudeguy]

Obviously, only black drug dealers and pimps drive Escalades.

exactly! terrible mileage, terrible reliability.

This is what I would do... even if I took the immediate depreciation hit...

I mean come on, you can get a Ford F150 Raptor or something...

 

[Zen0]

They still look pretty decent, not that it's difficult to do for an SUV...

 

[IronWing]

Nah...around here, most are driven by Hispanics...thus making them commonly known as "Mexcalades."

Really? I guess I live in a low budget town. All I see are Spanish Armadas.

you mean like any luxury item in the world. in fact, isn't luxury the exact opposite of bang for the buck?

 

[SandEagle]

buddy of mine bought one for close to 60k. wtf. those things depreciate like crazy. ugly too. i'd never pay more than 10k for a GM. assholes

No, a Corvette is bang for the buck, so is a GT-R... arguably even a $375K Lexus LF-A...

Expensive doesn't necessarily mean you don't get what you pay for, sometimes you do.
