Red face Saying Goodbye

Well, traded in my 99 for a 2005 Cadillac SRX. So, guess I am out of here.

Lexus served me well for 82K miles. Not a single repair except for an antenna replaced under warranty, because made too much noise going up and down.

Thought long and hard about a 2005 RX330, but the SRX has too much to offer for what I want. Bigger, rear wheel drive, somewhat heavier, bigger motor (even with the V6 - did not opt for the V8).

May be back at some time later, but, "thanks for the memories"

Always go with what feels right for you. Congrats. Don't be a stranger though.

I like the looks of that SRX. Good luck with it. Does it have factory XM Radio?

im actually thinking about an SRX too, mainly because of its not much bigger size with 7 seating. Please make comparisons of the 2 whenever u can. Thank you!!

My father in-law picked up an SRX a few months back. Impressive truck. The V8 and the magnetic ride control make the thing handle like a sports sedan. As a long time lexus owner, even I would say the SRX is worht taking a look at. It's funny, I came away with a little envy, jumping back in my RX ;-)
