When you know everybody and their mother is going to have one, do you feel comfortable joining the crowd or do you go a different direction?

Depends on the vehicle. I don't think I would ever buy one of the Cadillac "pick-ups" because they are just waaaaaay too trendy. The SUVs though are a little different... I usually like the Denali because it's just as nice as the Escalade, more aggressively styled, and it makes you look classy and slightly more elegant when all of the wannabes are buying Escalades just so they can try to be cool too. However, with this version it is a different story. The 2007 Escalade has a very unique and aggressive look that the Denali now seems to be lacking. Also, when it comes to vehicles like the Escalade, I think the driver has as much to do with the image as the vehicle does (does that make sense?).
Also, I have a question about NYC. I am probably going to be moving up there in the near future and I was wondering about vehicles. How easy is it to keep a vehicle (a very nice one) there if you live in say Midtown Manhattan or the Upper West Side? Do you have to park it on the street or is there secure parking in the city? How does all of that work?
