| The EXT is a five passenger pickup truck version of the Cadillac Escalade that, along with the Lincoln Mark LT, competes in the highly illogical luxury pickup niche segment. Like the conceptually similar Chevrolet Avalanche, the EXT's ace in the hole is a folding partition between the pickup bed and interior called the 'Midgate' that, with the rear seats folded, can be opened to extend the length of the pickup bed. Another useful feature of the EXT is a three piece hard plastic cover that, when in place, effectively turns the 63.3 by 50 inch bed into a lockable trunk. These features, along with a removable rear window, create a vast range of different cargo hauling possibilities. |
 |
| The Escalade uses an all-aluminum 6.2 L Vortec V8. The pushrod engine boasts variable valve timing, a first in a mass-produced non-overhead cam engine. The system adjusts both intake and exhaust timing between two settings. This engine produces 403 hp (301 kW) and 417 ft·lbf (565 N·m). A new six-speed 6L80 Hydra-Matic automatic transmission will be used. The new body boasts a 0.363 drag coefficient, though the large frontal area will hurt aerodynamics. |
 |
| The EXT shares critical dimensions such as wheelbase and overall length with the jumbo size ESV Escalade variant. The EXT features a 6.2 Liter Vortec V8 with variable valve timing that produces 403 horsepower and 417 lb.-feet of torque, allowing the three ton behemoth to reach 60 miles per hour in around seven seconds and tow 6000 pounds. A 6-speed Hydra-Matic transmission serves up smooth shifts and features a manumatic mode with driver selectable shifting. |
 |
| Heated and Cooled seats for the driver and front passenger are standard and come with three temperature settings. Standard features on the EXT include a full leather interior , wood trim, a Bose 5.1 surround sound system with ten speakers and an in-dash six-disc CD changer, and a road sensing suspension with real time computer controlled damping. Options include an Ultra Luxury package that is composed of a DVD touch screen navigation system, a rearview camera, heated and cooled seats, a sunroof, and prodigious 22' seven spoke aluminum wheels. Unlike other Escalades, the EXT comes standard with all-wheel drive. A rear seat entertainment package can be ordered; it features two eight inch fold down screens, headless headsets and the requisite auxiliary jacks. |
