Of course, if that pair is buried, the Suburban and the Cadillac Escalade that use the same platform must also come to an end, at least in their current form.br /br /Past reports indicate that the ultra-lux ride from Caddy will a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/09/08/i-motortrend-i-next-escalade-to-go-lambda/"move to the Lambda platform/a for its next generation. The Tahukon pair had been slated for a redesign in 2011, and since that's reportedly not going to happen, the duo's future is definitely in question. GM will probably keep churning out the current version until it's no longer profitable to do so.br /br /These days, any story about the General would be incomplete without some mention of Chrysler, and this one's no different. America's number three automaker just announced just last week that it would be a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/10/23/chrysler-closing-newark-plant-early-cutting-shift-in-toledo/"phasing out its full-sized 'utes/a as well. Therefore, any possible merger of the two companies would carry on without a new large SUV platform at all.
