So they handle pretty similar????? I would think of the SRX going through the cones faster.....not bad for the Aviator though. I think the SRX is easier to live with but if you are into modding ur engines the Aviator is the way to go..........it will be the Mountainer in the future.

Again, I like having a vehicle that can move out of its own way. The styling of the Lincoln Aviator is too similar to that of the Navigator. It's getting boring.. The styling of the Cadillac SRX is new. It looks pretty unique out on the road... So between power and appearance, I'd take the SRX...

I really didnt like the SRX but saw a great looking one about 20 min ago going about 90mph....it was really nice looking...Id have to go with the SRX now.

Well seeing that we have an Aviator I would stick with it. I love the truck. Its a blast to drive and for an SUV it handles like its on rails. The SRX has nothing on the Aviator interior or exterior wise. And we got our Aviator for a little over $40k full loaded. Try getting a fully loaded SRX for that. And I just can't get past the SRX's ugly ass exterior. It makes me want to vomit everytime I see one. Thank god they're selling for shit around here so I don't get that queesy feeling too often

I don't know where "around here is", but they are selling very well on the east coast, and Aviators are very hard to find, or they look so much like a Nav you just don't notice the ugly little bastards! :rolleyes:

What are you smoking because whatever it is it really gets you high as hell to say something so crazy

Some SRX's still do it for me too, my father said "Thats a Cadillac" like what a POS......the colors cadillac chooses really arent that great either.

good numbers doesnt equate to good handling..its about feel..numbers are a bonus IMO

That said the SRX is superior in the handling department...the Aviatr uses the Explorers truck based frame, corrrect me if im wrong.
