Highs: Ride, fit and finish, regular fuel, towing capacity
Lows: Braking, cumbersome handling, high step-in, tiny third-row seat, fuel economy

"The Escalade is luxurious, comfortable, quiet and quick," Consumer Reports says. "But it gets poor fuel economy, feels clumsy in turns and has a tight third-row seat."
