Watch a Chevrolet Tahoe SUV Take a Plunge in a Lake…Twice!

A Chevrolet Tahoe driver watched his full-size SUV that was pulling a trailer with a boat dip into a lake not once but twice!

A bystander began filming the incident when the owner of the Tahoe was sitting on the vehicle's roof waiting for help, which arrived shortly after when another driver tossed a…ski rope and tow strap.

After connecting the rope and strap on the Chevy, the other vehicle began to haul in the Tahoe. The whole process seemed to be going well until the rope and strap broke off sending the Tahoe back into the lake for a second time.

In Making the latest Cadillac Escalade More High-Tech, GM Actually Made it Easier to Steal...

According to the Highway Loss Data Institute, the Cadillac Escalade is numero uno when it comes to stolen car claims here in the US. The group says that for the first three years of the third-generation Escalade's production (2007-2009) there have been an average of 10.8 claims - from stealing the rims up to the entire car - for every 1000 insured Escalades. That's approximately five times more claims than the average car.

This surge in Escalade theft isn't just because Cadillac's big SUV is many celebrities' vehicle of choice, however. After 2006, the SUV was actually made easier to steal than most cars because GM did away with the simple yet effective steering wheel lock. Instead, it was replaced by some electronic nannies that were supposed to be "better". Don't worry, the lock's back for 2010, so all you up and coming pimps will have harder-to-jack rides. Watch the report in the video below.
