* Cadillac ESCALADE EXT

Your neighbors, tucked snugly behind the wheels of their safe Camrys and Volvos, have been calling y'all the Clampetts ever since you drove up in your brand-spankin'-new Escalade EXT. Can you blame them? The 221-inch-long Cadillavalanche is nothing more than Farmer John's hay-bale hauler in a tuxedo. Its 345 horsepower, 380-lb-ft 6.0-liter tells the story that, despite the polished wood, jeweled headlamps and soft leather seats, this behemoth was designed for sundry ranch and farm duties. But the Cadillac pampernalia is what makes it different. Its dungarees-and-cufflinks attitude is sure to split opinions and stand out from a sea of sameness.
