The official tests for the 35i match those two so I would have to launch it the right way. Given its size that's an impressive time for the Escalade, that thing is a house on wheels

You are right, there is at least one second when you floor it and absolutely nothing happens, it's so frustrating. However I am pleased the X5 matches the other cars when they are using aggressive...

Thanks the latitudes are definitely ok. I guess the Bridgestones are out of the question then. Given what you two have said I will either pick the contis or the michelins depending on where I get the...

Help with tires

I am in Canada, drove in D mode at around 70 mph, air conditioner turned on, minimal traffic, 25.2 mpg. I will see how it turns out on the way back. I guess 29 was inaccurate:)

Oh no, I am probably doing 15 in stop and go, the 22 is a mix of the 29 hway from my trip on sunday plus the 2 days of stop and go since then. I wish I did 22 city too

I don't think its a war, but if I expected everyone to sit down and accept that the 5000lb truck can do 29mpg h/way, then I would need to have my head examined. I was expecting the push back and its...
