You did....indirectly. And stating a fact on my part is not having a guilty conscience.

I understand a new Land Cruiser/LX is on the way.

 

I prefer the X7 too, but its a different sort of vehicle.

The new GLS has been out for some time, have you not seen it? I much prefer the X7. I haven't driven it yet, but I have seen them on the road and sat in it in person.

 

5 Things to know

I am truly surprised there is a regular suspension setting.

New Suspension

The new independent rear suspension that enabled a lower interior floor makes a huge difference on the road, too. This suspension can utilize either classic dampers (standard) or one of two MagneRide systems (optional). The first is connected to sensors that scan every inch of the road at 95 km/h. The second adds adaptive air damping for automatic or driver-controlled ride height adjustments on the fly. You can lower the suspension to aid passenger entry and exit when the vehicle is parked or raise the body for additional ground clearance when driving off-road.

 

^^^ source?

 

According to this MT article I just read, the only tach available is the dinky horizontal line over to the left.

All that fanciness with three configurable curved OLED screens and you can't even set a conventional tach? Lame.

I couldn't get the picture to post.

 

The OLED looks pretty stunning. I don't think anyone is going to really miss a "conventional tach" over the other information they're putting in.

 

Having driven the new Tahoe and Yukon variants, including Denali, the Escalade should be impressively smooth and powerful. Denali interior materials left a little bit to be desired for a $70k+ vehicle, but the Escalade should take care of that.

 

whats funny is they still use a traditional style analog gauge for the speed which can just be a number nowadays. They whip out this fancy screen yet dont take full advantage of it. I mean thats probably the biggest fuel gauge I've ever seen being used

 

Which probably means nothing as GM seems to have issues with the tank side float if you will. Better just to stop and fill, every chance one gets.

The cargo is back up there at 126, maybe only 4 cu ft shy of the previous gen. (pre 2015)

Does this imply the rear is going to be independent, instead of live axle with some cable dangling as can be seen from behind since 1992? I really want to know before I choose this vehicle in GTA VI (Grand Theft Auto): The Run from Corona

 

This looks awesome for Cadillac.

 

I too like a traditional tach, but more and more carmakers are doing away with them entirely. Really is no purpose for one today.

 

It is absolutely, positively stunning, but I still want a tach gauge. With that 6.2 rumbling, yes please.

I didn't notice to fuel gauge until you mentioned it, that looks stupid too. Way too unnecessarily large.

I guess that's true bc there are barely any manuals anymore but no, still, I want my tachometer. All the gauges in my truck don't work EXCEPT the tachometer, and that's fine. The tach is the only gauge I care about working.

I always look at tachs constantly no matter what I drive. I would go nuts without one.

 

You'd get used to it. And anyway, it has a tach, its just not a full tach gauge.

 

I would still not like it, though. Ever.

Even if they could just fit something small and traditional in there, that would be nice.

 

Keep those old cars in good shape then lol
