Everyone bitches and moans that GM makes vehicles that are too big. So they downsize, and everyone bitches and moans that they made it smaller. No winning for those poor boys.

Well you have to dig deep...but eventually you'll find a reason, even though they're few and far between....

I agree that the new SRX is probably the right size. However, I think the 3.6L V6 or the 2.8T would probably be better engine choices for this vehicle. See the first drive of the 2.8T from Edmunds:

However, If I was in the market for a Caddy in this price range I think it would be the CTS Sport Wagon. :D

I like the new SRX size as well. If they put the engine behind the front axle, postioned North-South. Drop the ride height 6", add a close ratio 6 speed manual, add some bigger brakes, ..... ;D
