1st Generation – Albany Cavalcade (Classic)
The Albany Cavalcade Classic is a larger but sportier SUV (in comparison to the Landstalker) obviously based on the 2002-2006 Cadillac Escalade while portraying traits reminiscent of that of the Chevrolet Tahoe/GMC Yukon. The Albany Cavalcade Classic comes in a variety of both body and rim colors, though it has one primary body style, and may also come with or without roof racks and running boards.
The Albany Cavalcade Classic is powered by a high-displacement V8 Engine, paired to a 5 speed gearbox in a 50% front, 50% rear AWD layout. Braking in the Albany Cavalcade Classic is very good for a vehicle of its size, however ABS is only available on some models. Wheelspin is minimal too, thanks to the excellent traction control system. The suspension is moderately firm, and will keep the Cavalcade well balanced through the bends, though some oversteer can be felt on longer turns. Crash deformation is also very good, as the Cavalcade holds its shape after multiple accidents, and the suspension seems to hold together better than other vehicles. The engine itself is very sturdy, and will not fail unless significantly damaged multiple times.
Off-road, the Cavalcade Classic is also a stellar performer, with enough torque to climb medium to large-sloped hills and even some medium sized rocks. The AWD system helps keep the vehicle on the straight and narrow in even the worst terrain. With all-round independent suspension, the car often feels like it will roll over. However, if obstacles are tackled with reasonable speed, you would have to be very unlucky to roll a Cavalcade. It’s worth noting that if the vehicle is intended for off-road use, especially over boulders, then the version with side steps should be avoided, as these will be damaged easily. Overall, with its impressive top speed, sturdy design, 4 person carrying capacity, good acceleration, and ease of accessibility, this is one of the best vehicles in the game.
