Why should I also consider these?

The Escalade’s main competition, in terms of features, comes from the Lincoln Navigator, but the look and feel of the Navigator is antiquated; it forgoes a flashy appearance for more conservative details.

The V-8 powering the Navigator provides adequate performance but comes up short against the Escalade.

The Aspen offers a wide range of luxury features, but it's a half-size smaller than the Escalade, yet isn't any less cumbersome—or much more fuel-efficient—to drive.

The Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is a little more manageable, but it's not quite as roomy inside either.

Both the QX56 and the LX 570 have some measure of off-road ability, but their on-road handling suffers.

None of these vehicles arguably have the reputation, recognition, and curb appeal that the Escalade enjoys in some circles.

The 2008 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class is a superior sport-ute with lots of room and power.
