Cadillac is trying to push Escalades for $5k under sticker while the world waits on pins and needles for the hybrid version with big goofy "this is how i save the world rolling on 22s" stickers across the sides of the truck.
People are probably holding off on buying another big SUV because they're waiting for versions with 50% better fuel mileage, right? GM commits one of my favorite math frauds by playing up a percentage gain from a small denominator... well I'm going to exercise 100% more than I did last week in honor of GM's feat. That's right, I'm soiling two pairs of running shorts by next Saturday.
Rather than only mocking progress, I hope this blog will also enlighten discussions of economic and environmental sustainability. In this vein, I offer an alternative with infinitely better gas mileage, also from Cadillac: $1500 worth of bike on sale for $3100. The 'sclade hybrid can't touch a Caddy that rocks 27s straight from the dealer.
