I hate SUV's but now that I have a retail business, the S2000 alone just isn't cutting it. I can't imagine driving a Cadilac, but it did outrank the FX in a C/D shootout. Has anyone went through the same dilemna or can add from their own experiences. Thanks in advance. I think they are both good looking in completely opposite ways.

the cadi is daym near the same price as an Escalade, nice car, I sell them, but $$. Drive them both, the fx is pretty cool imo, some would claim better reliability too. IMO

Pierceman,

You mean that for the price of the SRX, you might as well get an Escalade? Hmm, that may be true, but I don't like traditional rides of SUV, other than the higher ride height. So are you a caddy dealer in So Cal?

You should test drive both of them. I just got my FX35 this week.

I'd say either the FX or the SRX will be a far better purchase than the Lexus, BMW or Merc trucks.

I disagree. I have a RX330, saw a FX and thought the interior was cheap compared to the Lex.Yes it was more sporty, but hell I have sports cars. The SRX puts up good number, however I will never buy a car that looks like it has been designed with a ruler. I agree with you that the FX is better than the BMW or Merc, and the SRX is better than then Merc, sans G wagon, but that's it.

We're thinking about an FX35. 350Z tall wagon in disguise. Pretty fun driving for an SUV - more like a car really...

Yes, Pierceman is a Cadillac Dealer as well as a Honda Fanatic. I have a little of the same predicament. SRX or the FX35/FX45.
