    In reply to 2010 Cadillac SRX: First Drive
    My only gripe in the design is the use of the black trim along the bottom to give the actual sheet metal shape of the truck a leaner look. To make it less chunky. I wish they would have just cut that 4 inches off and lowered the truck the same height and it would all be fine. But, oh well.

    I see football dash..


    FAIL!


    And Why GM, why is it Subaru can make AWD and put them in their BASE model cars, and make them affordable, you buy a controlling stake in FHI stock, pirate their AWD tech and the only way you can 'make money' on that venture is to stuff it in your up-priced up-scale Crossovers?


    FAIL


    Go away already GM.

    The worst thing about this vehicle is that it's saddled with the GM badge. People never forget (and thus, never forgive) the one time the General screwed them over. Consumers aren't scientists; they're not curious to see if anything's changed over time.


    I however, would love to wager that things have improved in either that or the new CTS.

    They've got lots of great cars...if only they could get people to drive and/or buy them.

    It's very X5 GT, but with less kidney and more Cadillac angularity.

    Oh, wait...there won't be a V version because GM doesn't believe in performance anymore.

    You could do a lot worse on the looks, and I'm prepared to believe the ride/handling is as good as you say it is.


    You keep harping on the RX350, which we know to be an isolation chamber on wheels.


    What about Ze Germans, who tend to take driving more seriosuly?

    It definitely looks better than both the Lexus and the Audi.

    Like soooo many (all) of these "crossover" things, I think I might be more interested in them if they were 7/8th scale. For instance, why oh why does everything have to have 20" wheels for cryin' out loud? Sort of like that kid in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory that eats something and blows up like a balloon.
