I saw the new large Cadillac EV comes in over 10,000 pounds dry before you add gas and oil.
Say that again, out loud, back to yourself. :57:

It was intentional, of course.

2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ First Test: So Large, So in Charge

Tipping our scales at 9,134 pounds, the 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ is not only the heaviest passenger vehicle we’ve ever tested, but it’s unapologetically larger than life

The V hits 60 mph in 4.7 seconds, whereas the MotorTrend test team got the IQ there in 4.6. Not a big margin, but considering the 2,854-pound weight difference between the two, it’s not bad. In the quarter mile, the gasoline-powered model achieves 13.1 seconds at 108.3 mph; the kilowatt-swilling IQ noses ahead again, laying down 13.0 at 109.1 mph. The extra weight does hurt the IQ in braking distance, as it required 133 feet to stop from 60 mph versus 120 for the V.

I'd note this easily could be because of tire differences, and the IQ has regen braking which probably doesn't matter in this test.

Michelin Primacy LTX TPC 2036  LT275/50R24 121/118S M+S for the electric.

22-inch Bridgestone Alenza A/S 02 all-season tires. It's the same rubber Cadillac fits to all Escalades, and the sole setup offered on the Escalade-V.

Tires: Bridgestone Alenza A/S 02  275/50R-22 111H M+S TPC Spec 3156MS

I guess it's some combination of affordable and ranking, of some sort.  Here, Georgia Tech is highly ranked and pretty affordable in state.  UGA is pretty well ranked for a state school and affordable, but I'd guess Tech would have the edge because I don't know if it's more expensive.

UT and A&M cost almost exactly the same for in-state residents.

I don't think so. I was looking at this somewhat recently, and I think Oregon State is less expensive, at least for out-of-state students, than UO.

Bigger picture: quirky is a decent way to describe it. Fluff is another.

The median low mark is about $50 K and ~18 states are within $5 K of that.
