What's cooler than an Escalade? An armored one. Yes, an armored Escalade elevates the aristocrat and wanna-be aristocrat to near invincibility, to a place that literally shuts out the rest of the world. Why are armored vehicles-unobtainable and unnecessary for most of us ordinary, regular people who have mostly nothing to protect and who are living in a time that lacks substantial threats of attack-so appealing? Like military vehicles, they're just badass. Cue the black sunglasses and bodyguards, and say sayonara to kidnappings, car jackings, projectiles, and space debris.
