2008 Cadillac SRX Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

2008 4dr SUV 255-horsepower 3.6L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
2 teenage kids love it see full Cadillac SRX review
2007 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 4.6L V8
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
The car is very comfortable to ride in. My SRX has all the bells and whistles with electric seat controls. I often adjust the lumbar support to my needs depending on how bad my back is hurting that day. Heated seats also make for a very warm tush on a cold day. see full Cadillac SRX review

Seat belts attached to front seats and not adjustable up and down. Lower sitting heighth than Lexus or other crossover SUVs or at least the appearance of same. see full Cadillac SRX review

The center console is too wide and gets in the way see full Cadillac SRX review

Much smaller compare to the R-class. The third row is a joke. see full Cadillac SRX review

6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
For how big the SRX looks, it's passenger space is somewhat craped. It's not terrible by any means, but it's not very roomy either. see full Cadillac SRX review

2011 Ford Escape Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2011 4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed automatic FWD
Wide bench seat with no humps. Middle passenger has good leg room where many other vehicles have a large hump to straddle. see full Ford Escape review
2011 Ford Escape Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed automatic FWD
It's a tad bit tight in the drivers seat. I have to postion the seat just right to avoid hitting my right knee on the center console, and I frequently hit the light switch when getting out. I'm only 5'9", so not that large of a person. see full Ford Escape review
