Repair-It

This sure is a nice vehicle. And it ought to be for what it costs.

The fuel economy is quite surprising. Which is, of course, ironic, because it doesn't matter.

But that's not entirely true. It doesn't matter for the new car buyer but for someone wanting a nice used vehicle (after what I assume is standard depreciation for the class, read: steep), good fuel economy is definitely helpful.

Having been whisked from Manhattan in the ESV version of this (ride down was in the GMT-900 Escalade with a ton of miles on it), I can say it is a very nice vehicle. Would love to try driving one. I think I prefer body on frame SUVs to the crossovers. On the other hand, the SRX is a pretty nice driving vehicle, because it is RWD based and has decent V8 thrust.

I actually somewhat regret not taking the Escalade that was offered to me when I had a LUX free day reservation at Logan and they had no actual luxury cars (really wanted a CTS or ATS). I was taking a road trip to Maine and it was just me so it seemed a bit wasteful.
