Deephaven Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 20 minutes ago, EvilBird said: Not saying the ML63 doesnt tow good but dont really get why you think the Caddy is so bad . Unpowered? With a Whipple? or you talking when it was stock? Brakes and steering I can understand being worse. I stated clearly comparing it stock. Once I dropped it and firmed up the suspension, added Wilwoods, and all the go fast goodies it was a different story. Longer wheelbase and more mass made up the difference, but stock the brakes and suspension were complete horseshit in comparison. I don't understand why GM thinks everyone needs 6" of clearance above the tires for the wheel wells. Dropping those beasts a good 4-6" makes a monstrous difference. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the fact I didn't buy it to tow, I bought it for fun. Conversely. it will tow everything I own, the biggest being a 7k trailer with The General on it. But again, I own a truck for that. Now I ask you, can the 'Burban pull a +.95g? Can it go 174? Boat neighbor is a Caddy dealer and has showed up at the marina with 2 different new Escalades this summer. One had the diesel, and the other one in a matte army green color. Ugly as fuck, like unbelievable how ugly it was, and over 100gs? No thanks.

Had a 1995 3/4 Suburban with a 400 in it and the big tranny - thing wasn't going to break any land speed records, but it sure kicked the hell out of the 350 that was in it towing wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still different animals IMO anyway. When I worked at the Boat dealer we always use to laugh at the Guys picking up their Boats with their X5s or Merc suvs . 9 times outta 10 they got a pickup or full frame SUV a year later. what's the speed rating of the tires there Darwin? I have two Tahoe's with no limiters from the factory, they're both PPV's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
