I agree, as of right now there is NOTHING Lincoln or Infinity has that would excite me over Volvo. That could change once I see the new Navigator in person.

The new Navi is a really nice piece, but the Escalade is the class of the large SUV market. It's kind of like comparing a talented College basketball player just up for the NBA draft with Lebron James.
