Hey guys remember the WIRED product reviews website? It's still there, chugging out more gear evaluations than you can shake a USB stick at. And we're not just content pumping out five netbook reviews a week. We're getting our mitts onto high performance gaming peripherals, top shelf audio, and automotive. Yep automotive. Like Joe Brown's take on the 2009 Cadillac Escalade Hybrid. From his review:
I shouldn't love this truck. I should hate it. I purposely do not own a car, and this all-black behemoth represents everything I hate about SUV
culture: conspicuous consumption, insensitivity to our rapidly shrinking world and crowded cities, middle finger raised at global warming.You could slap a cold fusion generator under Big Poppa Cadillac's hood and the first two issues would still apply, but I was kind of wrong about that last one. Have you ever seen Godzilla vs. Megalon?
Where Godzilla fights on behalf of the people of Japan against a giant rhinoceros/cockroach? Sure, Tokyo's favorite monster still smashes a bunch of buildings and steps on some people, but he's trying to be good. Same goes for this Hybrid Chromedaddy.$74,085 (as tested), cadillac.com
