A lot of it is shrew spinsters and women who only have 1 or 2 kids because they started too late. Big new luxury SUV = affluent with lots of kids, likely Catholic or Mormon.



🤣
^Yes. The messaging is "married my college sweetheart, started having kids while he was in med school (*read Rich Inlaws*), had a few more through residency, they're all in sports, and I've had enough time/money to get my body back".

It IS pretty compelling.

Honestly, I judge anybody driving a massive SUV just to get groceries.

I would not be caught dead in that thing.

On second thought, it does look a little like a Hearse.

There are three cars people drive that I find to be akin to being dressed head to toe in logos- Escalades, Range Rovers and G-Wagons. These cars are obnoxious and only chosen to announce that you have money. Having money is nice, flaunting it is tacky.

Every time we considered the G wagon the thought of constant dealer visits entered my mind. Granted its not as bad as a RR, but... It's likely the Cadillac will have less maintenance issues and can carry more people and cargo. To me all US made (large) SUVs look mostly the same, I actually like the new Escalade design over the previous model. I'm happy in our LX, it can fit 7 and has a decent trunk space. Also, it's not ridiculously large, which helps in parking sometime. Lastly, it's one of the most reliable SUVs on the market... if I want to show off, I can drive my 911.

Our airport car service uses them and I'm glad because it holds us and our luggage easily.

This is what my acquaintance drove when he was running an escort service out of a prop ferry he owned in Mclean.

If I was staring a new job as a pimp, sure. Would fit well especially if all velvet inside.

Agreed, but if you have 5 kids they wouldn't fit.

No, I think they are embarrassing to drive. I don't want to be mistaken for an uber driver.
