You sound nice. I would think something like this would make a lot of sense for a realtor, actually. Doesn't she spend a lot of time showing people houses? If she is driving multiple people around, wouldn't a big, comfortable car make sense for this job?

The company CEO, but I think the company owns them not him.

I judge him personally as "pretty fucking awesome".

Maybe you should live on a farm out in the middle of nowhere if you dislike being in a city that much.

Why is an escalde any more gaudy than a s-class benz, a 5-series BMW, a Lexus or Infinity, or any other status car?

I think Teslas are more vulgar than escalades, simply because of the smugness factor associated with them.

Of course that counts. Who's the driver?

Uh yes. I live in Texas. Not out of the ordinary at all and there's no perceived stigma. What's the issue here?

No, I don't drive one, but I am confused. What is so objectionable about these? Is it the size or simply that it's a luxury brand? Is driving a Lexus station wagon gaudy as well?

My friends in Montana.

Not anymore, but there was a time when they seemed pretty popular and no, none of the owners that I knew had any "deficiencies". What a strange thought.

Aren't these pretty common cars? How are they any more "gaudy" than other luxury cars?

I really wonder what makes someone buy a vehicle like this.

Do you judge them for driving something so gaudy? Are they otherwise normal or does it tease out character, career and/or other background deficiencies?
