    The accountant at work JUST bought an Escalade...can you believe that?

    I really think the company should take a look at her, do you really want someone handling your money when they just bought a $70k Tahoe with a fancy grille that gets 10mpg when gas is going up 20c a gallon a week?

    Crazy!

    BTW, I'm guessing (and am pretty sure) that the worst safety performance remarks come from having poor dry braking performance and getting low numbers on CR's accident avoidance maneuver test. There's a short list of some of the best/worst at Best and Worst Cars. If you have online access to CR, one can see the complete list and will (not surprisingly) see that large pickups and large SUVs are at the very bottom of the barrel on both tests.
