how did you like the caddy/gmc? I am trying to convert a venza owner. I figure if they like ugly CUV's then why not buy gm and get their ugly?

very nice! i liked the caddy better it had the turbo! but didn't like the the $54,000 sticker price! but the GMC would be more in my price rang but it drove just as nice i also drove a chevy Equinox but didn't get a chance to take a pic of it! but that would also be in my price rang

Haven't driven the GMC or the new Camaro yet, I was not impressed with the SRX. Looks like every other SUV on the road. The interior was nice but they feel a lot more cramped than the last model, no trunk space and really tight rear seat leg room.

The SRX may be expensive, but Chevy and GMC don't compete with Lexus, BMW, etc. I think it looks great.

Very cool, not wild about the exterior, but i really like the interior on the SRX.

Edit: Where did those cars come from?

Love the Camaro.
No matter how refined it is, its still an equinox to me.

SRX is not based on the Theta platform, it uses a moddified variant of it to adapt to different drivetrain and AWD systems. Also offers a bit more in the handling department with the adjustable suspension

the SRX is damn near half the size! Yeah its smaller, but they are targeting the RX with it, which IMO...stupid.

Ahaha yeah. Our Aussie editors have been driving a lot of new Holden stuff, but here in NA, GM is finally reaching out to us since our site is seeing massive amounts of traffic.
