I popped over to Crest Cadillac in Plano, Texas this morning and picked up a new 2010 Cadillac Escalade ESV Platinum for a test drive.\u00a0 The ESV is the extended version of the Escalade, and the Platinum Series is the ultra-luxury model.<\/p>\n

The Platinum Escalade features TAHAMA leather seats, in a medium brown leather that look amazing and are very comfortable.\u00a0 They have stitched Cadillac wreath and crests in the top of each seat.\u00a0 The stitching is done with contrasting colors, and the perforated seating sections give the ideal combination of leather seat comfort and durability.\u00a0 The seats in the Escalade are heated and ventilated.<\/p>\n

The test vehicle has a DVD touch-screen navigation system.\u00a0 Entertainment or navigation info can be shown on the screen.<\/p>\n

Greg Vetrano, a Crest Cadillac vehicle delivery expert showed me the features of the Escalade ESV.\u00a0 I would love to see some direct input from Delivery Coordinators at Cadillac Dealerships back to the Cadillac Development team on user interface issues.\u00a0 Since experts like Greg hear all the Customer questions as they become familiar with their new Cadillac they would be a good source for the interface design team.<\/p>\n
